Background
Clinical Features
- Many novel oncologic therapies and Biologic immunomodulators adverse reactions may mimic common ED presentations such as sepsis.
Types of novel oncologic agents

- CD19–chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy
- Monoclonal Antibodies against PD-1 checkpoints
- Small-molecule inhibitors
- Antibody-drug conjugates
- Immunotoxins
- Bispecific T-cell engagers
Differential Diagnosis
- Decreased cellular immunity which an cause reactivation or new
- Neurologic syndromes
- Hematologic side effects
- Cardiac effects
- Allergic reactions
