Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) may trigger immune-related adverse events which rarely affect the central nervous system (CNS-irAEs). Over the past few years, cumulative data have led to the characterization of well defined syndromes with distinct cancer and antibody associations as well as different outcomes. RECENT FINDINGS The most frequent CNS-irAE is encephalitis, which includes three main groups: meningoencephalitis, a nonfocal syndrome usually responsive to corticosteroids; limbic encephalitis, associated with high-risk paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNS) antibodies (e.g. anti-Hu, anti-Ma2) and neuroendocrine cancers, characterized by poor treatment response and outcomes; and cerebellar ataxia, with variable outcomes (worse when high-risk PNS antibodies are detected). Additionally, a diffuse encephalopathy without inflammatory findings, with poor response to corticosteroids and high mortality has been described. The spectrum of CNS-irAEs also includes meningitis, myelitis, and rarer presentations. A subset of CNS-irAEs (i.e. limbic encephalitis and/or rapidly progressive cerebellar ataxia) is undistinguishable from ICI-naïve PNS. SUMMARY The clinical and outcomes diversity of CNS-irAEs suggests different pathogenic mechanisms, which need to be understood to establish more effective and specific treatment modalities. It is crucial to identify biomarkers able to predict which patients will experience severe CNS-irAEs, to anticipate their diagnosis, and to predict long-term outcomes.

Abstract
The frequency of corticospinal tract (CST) T2/FLAIR hyperintensity in disorders with neuroglial antibodies is unclear. Herein, we retrospectively reviewed brain MRIs of 101 LGI1-antibody encephalitis patients, and observed CST hyperintensity in 30/101 (30%). It was mostly bilateral (93%), not associated with upper motor neuron signs/symptoms (7%), and frequently decreased over time (39%). In a systematic review including patients with other neuroglial antibodies, CST hyperintensity was reported in 110 with neuromyelitis optica (94%), myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-associated disease (2%), Ma2-antibody (3%) and GAD65-antibody paraneoplastic neurological syndrome (1%). CST hyperintensity is not an infrequent finding in LGI1-Ab encephalitis and other disorders with neuroglial antibodies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Relapses occur in 15%-25% of patients with leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 antibody (LGI1-Ab) autoimmune encephalitis and may cause additional disability. In this study, we clinically characterized the relapses and identified factors predicting their occurrence. METHODS This is a retrospective chart review of patients with LGI1-Ab encephalitis diagnosed at our center between 2005 and 2022. Relapse was defined as worsening of previous or appearance of new symptoms after at least 3 months of clinical stabilization. RESULTS Among 210 patients, 30 (14%) experienced a total of 33 relapses. The median time to first relapse was 23.9 months (range: 4.9-110.1, interquartile range [IQR]: 17.8). The CSF was inflammatory in 11/25 (44%) relapses, while LGI1-Abs were found in the serum in 16/24 (67%) and in the CSF in 12/26 (46%); brain MRI was abnormal in 16/26 (62%) relapses. Compared with the initial episode, relapses manifested less frequently with 3 or more symptoms (4/30 patients, 13% vs 28/30, 93%; p < 0.001) and had lower maximal modified Rankin scale (mRS) score (median 3, range: 2-5, IQR: 1 vs 3, range: 2-5, IQR: 0; p = 0.001). The median mRS at last follow-up after relapse (2, range: 0-4, IQR: 2) was significantly higher than after the initial episode (1, range: 0-4, IQR: 1; p = 0.005). Relapsing patients did not differ in their initial clinical and diagnostic features from 85 patients without relapse. Nevertheless, residual cognitive dysfunction after the initial episode (hazard ratio:13.8, 95% confidence interval [1.5; 129.5]; p = 0.022) and no administration of corticosteroids at the initial episode (hazard ratio: 4.8, 95% confidence interval [1.1; 21.1]; p = 0.036) were significantly associated with an increased risk of relapse. DISCUSSION Relapses may occur years after the initial encephalitis episode and are usually milder but cause additional disability. Corticosteroid treatment reduces the risk of future relapses, while patients with residual cognitive dysfunction after the initial episode have an increased relapse risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Dysautonomia has been associated with paraneoplastic neurological syndrome (PNS)-related mortality in anti-Hu PNS, but its frequency and spectrum remain ill-defined. We describe anti-Hu patients with dysautonomia, estimate its frequency, and compare them to patients without dysautonomia. METHODS Patients with anti-Hu antibodies diagnosed in the study centre (1990-2022) were retrospectively reviewed; those with autonomic signs and symptoms were identified. RESULTS Among 477 anti-Hu patients, 126 (26%) had dysautonomia (the only PNS manifestation in 7/126, 6%); gastrointestinal (82/126, 65%), cardiovascular (64/126, 51%), urogenital (24/126, 19%), pupillomotor/secretomotor (each, 11/126, 9%), and central hypoventilation (10/126, 8%). Patients with isolated CNS involvement less frequently had gastrointestinal dysautonomia than those with peripheral (alone or combined with CNS) involvement (7/23, 30% vs. 31/44, 70% vs. 37/52, 71%; P = 0.002); while more frequently central hypoventilation (7/23, 30% vs. 1/44, 2.3% vs. 2/52, 4%; P < 0.001) and/or cardiovascular alterations (18/23, 78% vs. 20/44, 45% vs. 26/52, 50%; P = 0.055). Median [95% CI] overall survival was not significantly different between patients with (37 [17; 91] months) or without dysautonomia (28 [22; 39] months; P = 0.78). Cardiovascular dysautonomia (HR: 1.57, 95% CI [1.05; 2.36]; P = 0.030) and central hypoventilation (HR: 3.51, 95% CI [1.54; 8.01]; P = 0.003) were associated with a higher risk of death, and secretomotor dysautonomia a lower risk (HR: 0.28, 95% CI [0.09; 0.89]; P = 0.032). Patients with cardiovascular dysautonomia dying ≤ 1 year from clinical onset had severe CNS (21/27, 78%), frequently brainstem (13/27, 48%), involvement. DISCUSSION Anti-Hu PNS dysautonomia is rarely isolated, frequently gastrointestinal, cardiovascular and urogenital. CNS dysfunction, particularly brainstem, associates with lethal cardiovascular alterations and central hypoventilation, while peripheral involvement preferentially associates with gastrointestinal or secretomotor dysautonomia, being the latest more indolent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical spectrum of melanoma-associated neurological autoimmunity, whether melanoma-associated paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNS) or induced by immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), is not well characterized. We aim to describe the clinical spectrum of melanoma-associated neurological autoimmunity. METHODS A systematic review of the literature combined with patients from French databases of paraneoplastic neurological syndromes was conducted. All melanoma patients with a possible immune-mediated neurologic syndrome were included and classified according to whether they had previously been exposed to ICI (ICI-neurotoxicity) or not (ICI-naïve) at first neurological symptoms. RESULTS Seventy ICI-naïve (literature: n = 61) and 241 ICI-neurotoxicity patients (literature: n = 180) were identified. Neuromuscular manifestations predominated in both groups, but peripheral neuropathies were more frequent in ICI-neurotoxicity patients (39.4% vs 21.4%, p = 0.005) whereas myositis was more frequent in ICI-naïve patients (42.9% vs 18.7%, p < 0.001). ICI-naïve patients had also more frequent central nervous system (CNS) involvement (35.7% vs 23.7%, p = 0.045), classical paraneoplastic syndrome (25.7% vs 5.8%, p < 0.001), and more frequently positive for anti-neuron antibodies (24/32, 75.0% vs 38/90, 42.2%, p = 0.001). Although more ICI-neurotoxicity patients died during the acute phase (22/202, 10.9% vs 1/51, 2.0%, p = 0.047), mostly myositis patients (14/22, 63.6%), mortality during follow-up was higher in ICI-naïve patients (58.5% vs 29.8%, p < 0.001). There was no significant difference in the frequency of life independence (mRS ≤ 2) in the surviving patients in both groups (95.5% vs 91.0%, p = 0.437). CONCLUSIONS Melanoma-associated PNS appear remarkably rare. The clinical similarities observed in neurological autoimmunity between ICI-treated and ICI-naïve patients, characterized predominantly by demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy and myositis, suggest a potential prior immunization against melanoma antigens contributing to ICI-related neurotoxicity.

Abstract
Background COVID-19 vaccines have been approved due to their excellent safety and efficacy data and their use has also permitted to reduce neurological complications of SARS-CoV-2. However, clinical trials were underpowered to detect rare adverse events. Herein, the aim was to characterize the clinical spectrum and immunological features of central nervous system (CNS) immune-related events following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. Methods Multicenter, retrospective, cohort study (December 1, 2020-April 30, 2022). Inclusion criteria were (1) de novo CNS disorders developing after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination (probable causal relationship as per 2021 Butler criteria) (2); evidence for an immune-mediated etiology, as per (i) 2016 Graus criteria for autoimmune encephalitis (AE); (ii) 2015 Wingerchuk criteria for neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders; (iii) criteria for myelitis. Results Nineteen patients were included from 7 tertiary referral hospitals across Italy and France (one of them being a national referral center for AE), over almost 1 year and half of vaccination campaign. Vaccines administered were mRNA-based (63%) and adenovirus-vectored (37%). The median time between vaccination and symptoms onset was 14 days (range: 2-41 days). CSF was inflammatory in 74%; autoantibodies were detected in 5%. CSF cytokine analysis (n=3) revealed increased CXCL-10 (IP-10), suggesting robust T-cell activation. The patients had AE (58%), myelitis (21%), acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) (16%), and brainstem encephalitis (5%). All patients but 2 received immunomodulatory treatment. At last follow-up (median 130 days; range: 32-540), only one patient (5%) had a mRS>2. Conclusion CNS adverse events of COVID-19 vaccination appear to be very rare even at reference centers and consist mostly of antibody-negative AE, myelitis, and ADEM developing approximately 2 weeks after vaccination. Most patients improve following immunomodulatory treatment.

Abstract
We report two novel cases of autoimmune cerebellar ataxia (ACA) associated with anti-glutamate receptor δ2 antibodies (Gluδ2-Abs). The first case was confirmed by indirect immunofluorescence and cell-based assays: a 29-year-old woman presented after 5 days of headache and vomiting, a pancerebellar syndrome, downbeat nystagmus, decreased visual acuity linked to bilateral retrobulbar optic neuritis (RON), and lymphocytic pleocytosis in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) without any abnormality detected using cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Second-line immunotherapy allowed progressive clinical improvement, with full recovery achieved after a 4-year follow-up. Thereafter, we retrospectively tested Gluδ2-Abs in 350 patients with a suspicion of autoimmune encephalitis without characterized autoantibody. We identified a second case, a 12-year-old boy who developed 10 days after a respiratory infection, a static cerebellar syndrome with lymphocytosis in the CSF, and right cerebellum hyperintensity in MRI. Five days of corticosteroid treatment allowed a quick clinical improvement. No tumor was identified in both cases, whereas laboratory analyses revealed autoimmune stigma. The present cases suggested that ACA associated with Gluδ2-Abs is an extremely rare but treatable disease. Therefore, testing for Gluδ2-Abs might be considered in the setting of suspected ACA and no initial antibody identification. The visual deficits and ocular motility abnormalities observed in the first reported case might be part of the clinical spectrum of Gluδ2-Abs ACA. Young age, infectious prodromes, lymphocytic pleocytosis, and autoimmune background usually appear together with this syndrome and should lead to discuss the initiation of immunotherapy (after ruling out differential diagnosis, especially infectious causes).

Abstract
Introduction Mononeuritis multiplex is frequently related to vasculitic neuropathy and has been reported only sporadically as an adverse event of immune checkpoint inhibitors. Methods Case series of three patients with mononeuritis multiplex-all with mesothelioma-identified in the databases of two French clinical networks (French Reference Center for Paraneoplastic Neurological Syndromes, Lyon; OncoNeuroTox, Paris; January 2015-October 2022) set up to collect and investigate n-irAEs on a nationwide level. Results Three patients (male; median age 86 years; range 72-88 years) had pleural mesothelioma and received 10, 4, and 6 cycles, respectively, of first-line nivolumab plus ipilimumab combined therapy. In patient 1, the neurological symptoms involved the median nerves, and in the other two patients, there was a more diffuse distribution; the symptoms were severe (common terminology criteria for adverse events, CTCAE grade 3) in all patients. Nerve conduction studies indicated mononeuritis multiplex in all patients. Peripheral nerve biopsy demonstrated necrotizing vasculitis in patients 1 and 3 and marked IgA deposition without inflammatory lesions in patient 2. Immune checkpoint inhibitors were permanently withdrawn, and corticosteroids were administered to all patients, leading to complete symptom regression (CTCAE grade 0, patient 2) or partial improvement (CTCAE grade 2, patients 1 and 3). During steroid tapering, patient 1 experienced symptom recurrence and spreading to other nerve territories (CTCAE grade 3); he improved 3 months after rituximab and cyclophosphamide administration. Discussion We report the occurrence of mononeuritis multiplex, a very rare adverse event of immune checkpoint inhibitors, in the three patients with mesothelioma. Clinicians must be aware of this severe, yet treatable adverse event.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint inhibitors, a class of oncological treatments that enhance antitumour immunity, can trigger neurological adverse events closely resembling paraneoplastic neurological syndromes. Unlike other neurological adverse events caused by these drugs, post-immune checkpoint inhibitor paraneoplastic neurological syndromes predominantly affect the CNS and are associated with neural antibodies and cancer types commonly found also in spontaneous paraneoplastic neurological syndromes. Furthermore, post-immune checkpoint inhibitor paraneoplastic neurological syndromes have poorer neurological outcomes than other neurological adverse events of immune checkpoint inhibitors. Early diagnosis and initiation of immunosuppressive therapy are likely to be crucial in preventing the accumulation of neurological disability. Importantly, the neural antibodies found in patients with post-immune checkpoint inhibitor paraneoplastic neurological syndromes are sometimes detected before treatment, indicating that these antibodies might help to predict the development of neurological adverse events. Experimental and clinical evidence suggests that post-immune checkpoint inhibitor paraneoplastic neurological syndromes probably share immunological features with spontaneous paraneoplastic syndromes. Hence, the study of post-immune checkpoint inhibitor paraneoplastic neurological syndromes can help in deciphering the immunopathogenesis of paraneoplastic neurological syndromes and in identifying novel therapeutic targets.

Abstract
In autoimmune neurological diseases, the autonomic nervous system can be the primary target of autoimmunity (e.g. autoimmune autonomic ganglionopathy), or, more frequently, be damaged together with other areas of the nervous system (e.g. Guillain-Barré syndrome). Patients with autoimmune encephalitis and paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNS) often develop dysautonomia; however, the frequency and spectrum of autonomic signs and symptoms remain ill defined except for those scenarios in which dysautonomia is a core feature of the disease. Such is the case of Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome, Morvan syndrome or anti-NMDAR encephalitis; in the latter, patients with dysautonomia have been reported to carry a more severe disease and to retain higher disability than those without autonomic dysfunction. Likewise, the presence of autonomic involvement indicates a higher risk of death due to neurological cause in patients with anti-Hu PNS. However, in anti-Hu and other PNS, as well as in the context of immune checkpoint inhibitors' toxicities, the characterization of autonomic involvement is frequently overshadowed by the severity of other neurological symptoms and signs. When evaluated with tests specific for autonomic function, patients with autoimmune encephalitis or PNS usually show a more widespread autonomic involvement than clinically suggested, which may reflect a potential gap of care when it comes to diagnosing dysautonomia. This review aims to revise the autonomic involvement in patients with autoimmune encephalitis and PNS, using for that purpose an antibody-based approach. We also discuss and provide general recommendations for the evaluation and management of dysautonomia in these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is the malignancy most frequently associated with paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNS) and can trigger different antibody responses against intracellular (Hu) or neuronal surface (GABAB R) antigens. Our aim was to clarify whether the genomic and transcriptomic features of SCLC are different in patients with anti-GABAB R or anti-Hu PNS compared with SCLC without PNS. METHODS A total of 76 SCLC tumor samples were collected: 34 anti-Hu, 14 anti-GABAB R, and 28 SCLC without PNS. The study consisted of 4 steps: (1) pathological confirmation; (2) next generation sequencing using a panel of 98 genes, including those encoding the autoantibodies targets ELAVL1-4, GABBR1-2, and KCTD16; (3) genome-wide copy number variation (CNV); and (4) whole-transcriptome RNA sequencing. RESULTS CNV analysis revealed that patients with anti-GABAB R PNS commonly have a gain in chromosome 5q, which contains KCTD16, whereas anti-Hu and control patients often harbor a loss. No significantly different number of mutations regarding any onconeural genes was observed. Conversely, the transcriptomic profile of SCLC was different, and the differentially expressed genes allowed effective clustering of the samples into 3 groups, reflecting the antibody-based classification, with an overexpression of KCTD16 specific to anti-GABAB R PNS. Pathway analysis revealed that tumors of patients with anti-GABAB R encephalitis were enriched in B-cell signatures, as opposed to those of patients with anti-Hu, in which T-cell- and interferon-γ-related signatures were overexpressed. INTERPRETATION SCLC genetic and transcriptomic features differentiate anti-GABAB R, anti-Hu, and non-PNS tumors. The role of KCTD16 appears to be pivotal in the tumor immune tolerance breakdown of anti-GABAB R PNS. ANN NEUROL 2023;94:1102-1115.

Abstract
Anti-Hu are the most frequent antibodies in paraneoplastic neurological syndromes, mainly associated with an often limited stage small cell lung cancer. The clinical presentation is pleomorphic, frequently multifocal. Although the predominant phenotypes are well characterized, how different neurological syndromes associate is unclear. Likewise, no specific study assessed the performance of new-generation CT and PET scanners for cancer screening in these patients. Herein, we aimed to describe the clinical pattern and cancer screening in a retrospective cohort of 466 patients with anti-Hu autoimmunity from the French Reference Centre on Paraneoplastic Neurological Syndromes registry. Clinical presentation, cancer screening and diagnosis were analysed. Among the 466 patients, 220 (54%) had multifocal neurological involvement. A hierarchical cluster analysis grouped the patients into (i) mainly limbic encephalitis, (ii) predominantly peripheral neuropathy and (iii) broad involvement of the nervous system (mixed group). Compared with limbic encephalitis and mixed groups, patients in the neuropathy group more frequently had a chronic onset of symptoms (29 versus 13 and 17%), elevated CSF proteins (83 versus 47 and 67%) and died from cancer progression (67 versus 15 and 28%; all P < 0.05). No significant difference in overall survival was observed between groups. Dysautonomia and brainstem signs were associated with a higher risk of death from the neurological cause; cancer diagnosis was the main predictor of all-cause death, especially when diagnosed within 2 years from clinical onset (all P < 0.05). Three hundred and forty-nine (75%) patients had cancer: in 295 (84%) neurological symptoms preceded tumour diagnosis, being lung cancer in 262 (89%), thereof small cell lung cancer in 227 (87%). First CT scan revealed lung cancer in 205/241 (85%), and PET scan shortened the interval to diagnosis when the initial CT scan was negative [7 months (1-66) in 27 patients versus 14 months (2-45) in 6; P < 0.001]. Although cancer diagnosis mostly occurred within 2 years from clinical onset, 13/295 (4%) patients exceeded that threshold. Conversely, 33 patients (7%) were 'cancer-free' after 2 years of follow-up. However, 13/33 (39%) had initial suspicious imaging findings that spontaneously regressed. In conclusion, although anti-Hu autoimmunity clinical presentation is mostly multifocal, we observed patients with a predominant limbic syndrome or isolated sensory neuropathy. Early implementation of PET scan shortens the interval to cancer diagnosis, which was the strongest predictor of death, especially if diagnosed ≤2 years from clinical onset. As cancer was diagnosed >2 years after clinical onset in few patients, screening should be extended up to 5 years. In addition, tumour regression was suspected in a substantial proportion of 'cancer-free' patients.

Abstract
While the spectrum of neurological immune checkpoint inhibitor-related adverse events is expanding, patients' outcomes are not well documented. This study aimed to assess outcomes of neurological immune-related adverse events and to identify prognostic factors. All patients experiencing grade ≥2 neurological immune-related adverse events identified at two clinical networks (French Reference Center for Paraneoplastic Neurological Syndromes, Lyon; and OncoNeuroTox, Paris) over five years were included. Modified Rankin scores were assessed at onset, 6, 12, 18 months, and last visit. A multi-state Markov model was used to estimate the transition rates between minor disability (mRS <3), severe disability (mRS 3-5), and death (mRS 6), over the study period. The state-to-state transition rates were estimated using maximum likelihood and variables were introduced into the different transitions to study their effects. A total of 147 patients were included out of 205 patients with a suspicion of neurological immune-related adverse events. The median age was 65 years (range 20-87) and 87/147 patients (59.2%) were male. Neurological immune-related adverse events involved the peripheral nervous system in 87/147 patients (59.2%), the central nervous system in 51/147 (34.7%), and both systems in 9/147 (6.1%). Paraneoplastic-like syndromes were observed in 30/147 patients (20.4%). Cancers included lung cancers (36.1%), melanoma (30.6%), urological cancers (15.6%), and others (17.8%). Patients were treated with programmed cell death protein (ligan) 1 (PD(L)1) inhibitors (70.1%), CTLA4 inhibitors (3.4%) or both (25.9%). Severe disability was reported in 108/144 patients (75.0%) at onset and in 33/146 patients (22.6%) at last visit (median follow-up duration: 12 months, range 0.5-50); 48/147 (32.7%) patients died, from cancer progression (17/48, 35.4%), neurological toxicity (15/48, 31.2%), other causes (10/48, 20.8%) or unknown causes (6/48, 12.5%). The rate of transition from severe to minor disability independently increased with melanoma [compared to lung cancer, hazard ratio = 3.26, 95%CI (1.27; 8.41)] and myositis/neuromuscular junction disorders [hazard ratio = 8.26, 95%CI (2.90; 23.58)], and decreased with older age [hazard ratio = 0.68, 95%CI (0.47; 0.99)] and paraneoplastic-like syndromes [hazard ratio = 0.29, 95%CI (0.09; 0.98)]. In patients with neurological immune-related adverse events, myositis/neuromuscular junction disorders and melanoma increase the transition rate from severe to minor disability, while older age and paraneoplastic-like syndromes result in poorer neurological outcomes; future studies are needed to optimize the management of such patients.

Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell systemic immunotherapy has revolutionized how clinicians treat several refractory and relapsed hematologic malignancies. Due to its peculiar mechanism of action, CAR T-cell-based therapy has enlarged the spectrum of neurological toxicities. CAR T-cell-associated neurotoxicity-initially defined as CAR T-cell-related encephalopathy syndrome (CRES) and currently coined within the acronym ICANS (immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome)-is perhaps the most concerning toxicity of CAR T-cell therapy. Importantly, hematologic malignancies (especially lymphoid malignancies) may originate in or spread to the central nervous system (CNS) in the form of parenchymal and/or meningeal disease. Due to the emergence of deadly and neurological adverse events, such as fatal brain edema in some patients included in early CAR T-cell trials, safety concerns for those with CNS primary or secondary infiltration arose and contributed to the routine exclusion of individuals with pre-existing or active CNS involvement from pivotal trials. However, based primarily on the lack of evidence, it remains unknown whether CNS involvement increases the risk and/or severity of CAR T-cell-related neurotoxicity. Given the limited treatment options available for patients once they relapse with CNS involvement, it is of high interest to explore the role of novel clinical strategies including CAR T cells to treat leukemias/lymphomas and myeloma with CNS involvement. The purpose of this review was to summarize currently available neurological safety data of CAR T-cell-based immunotherapy from the clinical trials and real-world experiences in adult patients with CNS disease due to lymphoma, leukemia, or myeloma. Increasing evidence supports that CNS involvement in hematologic disease should no longer be considered per se as an absolute contraindication to CAR T-cell-based therapy. While the incidence may be high, severity does not appear to be impacted significantly by pre-existing CNS status. Close monitoring by trained neurologists is recommended.

Abstract
The use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has represented a major advance in cancer treatment. By enhancing endogenous immune responses to destroy cancer cells, ICIs can cause immune-related adverse events (irAEs), with possible involvement of any organ system. IrAEs are frequent, particularly those involving the skin or the endocrine system, and usually completely reversible after temporary immunosuppression, while neurological irAEs (n-irAEs) are relatively rare, often severe, and they carry a considerable risk of mortality and long-term disability. They usually affect the peripheral nervous system, mainly manifesting as myositis, polyradiculoneuropathy, or cranial neuropathy, and, less frequently, involve the central nervous system, causing encephalitis, meningitis, or myelitis. Although somehow reminiscent of the disorders that neurologists are familiar to deal with in their daily practice, n-irAEs are characterized by distinctive features from their idiopathic counterparts; for instance, myositis may have a predominant oculo-bulbar involvement reminiscent of myasthenia gravis and frequently associates with myocarditis; peripheral neuropathy, although often resembling Guillain-Barré syndrome, usually responds to corticosteroids. Remarkably, several associations between the neurological phenotype and the type of ICIs or the type of cancer have emerged in the last few years, and the growing administration of ICIs in patients with neuroendocrine cancers has led to an increased number of reports of paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (triggered or worsened by ICIs). This review aims to update current knowledge regarding the clinical presentation of n-irAEs. We also discuss the essential parts of the diagnostic approach, and we provide general recommendations for the management of these disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The link between paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNS) and renal cell and bladder cancer (RCC/BC) is rare and uncertain. Our aim was to clinically evaluate, in light of the updated PNS criteria, these uncommon associations. METHODS Retrospective nationwide cohort chart review study and systematic review of the literature. RESULTS After excluding 5 patients due to the diagnosis of another co-occurrent malignancy, 10/18 patients with RCC and 8/18 patients with BC were identified. A total of 31 cases were previously published, yielding an overall series of 27/49 RCC and 22/49 BC patients. There was a predominance of cerebellar syndromes in both cancers (10/27, 37% for RCC; 9/22, 41% for BC), followed by encephalitis in 9/27 (33%) patients with RCC and encephalomyelitis/sensory neuronopathy in 5/22 (23%) patients with BC. The detection of high-risk Abs was more frequent among BC patients (16/19, 84% vs. 3/13, 23% in RCC, p = 0.0009), Ri antibodies being the most frequent thereof. After applying the updated PNS criteria, patients with BC met highest degrees (possible, probable, and definite) of certainty for PNS diagnosis (20/22, 91% vs. 16/27, 59% in RCC, p = 0.021). CONCLUSION A second neoplasm should always be ruled out before establishing the diagnosis of PNS in patients with RCC or BC. However, while this association remains dubious for most patients with RCC, a casual role is more probable in patients with BC and high-risk antibodies presenting with cerebellar ataxia, brainstem encephalitis or encephalomyelitis/sensory neuronopathy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES To clinically characterize post-immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) Hu antibody (Ab) neurologic disorders, we analyzed Hu-Ab-positive patients with neurologic immune-related adverse events (n-irAEs) and compared them with patients with other n-irAEs, ICI-naive patients with Hu-Ab paraneoplastic neurologic syndromes (PNSs) identified in the same study center, and those with Hu-Ab n-irAEs reported elsewhere. METHODS Patients whose samples were sent to the French reference center for a suspicion of n-irAE (2015-2021) were identified; those with a final diagnosis of n-irAE and Hu-Ab were included. Control groups included patients with a final diagnosis of n-irAE occurring during the same period as the patients included (2018-2021) but without Hu-Ab, and ICI-naive patients with Hu-Ab PNS diagnosed during the same period; a systematic review was performed to identify previous reports. RESULTS Eleven patients with Hu-Ab and n-irAEs were included (median age, 66 years, range 44-76 years; 73% men). Ten patients had small cell lung cancer, and 1 had lung adenocarcinoma. The median follow-up from onset was 3 months (range 0.5-18 months). Compared with those with other n-irAEs (n = 63), Hu-Ab-positive patients had more frequently co-occurring involvement of both central and peripheral nervous systems (36% vs 8%, p = 0.02) and limbic (54% vs 14%, p < 0.01), brainstem (27% vs 5%, p = 0.02), and dorsal root ganglia (45% vs 5%, p < 0.01) involvement. The proportion of patients with severe disability (modified Rankin Scale score >3) at diagnosis was higher among Hu-Ab n-irAEs (91% vs 52%, p = 0.02). Patients with Hu-Ab had also poorer outcome (100% vs 28%, p < 0.01) and higher mortality (91% vs 46%, p < 0.01). There was no significant difference in terms of clinical features between Hu-Ab n-irAEs and ICI-naive Hu-Ab PNS (n = 92), but there was a poorer outcome (56/78, 71%, p < 0.01) and higher mortality (26%, p < 0.01) among the former. No significant difference was found between the patients reported herein and those in the literature. DISCUSSION The presence of Hu-Ab identifies a subgroup of n-irAEs that consistently reproduce the phenotypes of Hu-Ab-related PNS, supporting the hypothesis of ICI triggering or unmasking PNS. As these patients show high disability and mortality, further studies are required to investigate the underlying immunopathogenic mechanisms and to improve the outcome of Hu-Ab n-irAEs.

Abstract
Major advances in our knowledge concerning autoimmune and paraneoplastic cerebellar ataxias have occurred in the last 20 years. The discovery of several neural antibodies represents an undeniable contribution to this field, especially those serving as good biomarkers of paraneoplastic neurological syndromes and those showing direct pathogenic effects. Yet, many patients still lack detectable or known antibodies, and also many antibodies have only been reported in few patients, which makes it difficult to define in detail their clinical value. Nevertheless, a notable progress has additionally been made in the clinical characterization of patients with the main neural antibodies, which, although typically present with a subacute pancerebellar syndrome, may also show either hyperacute or chronic onsets that complicate the differential diagnoses. However, prodromal and transient features could be useful clues for an early recognition, and extracerebellar involvement may also be highly indicative of the associated antibody. Moreover, important advances in our understanding of the pathogenesis of cerebellar ataxias include the description of antibody effects, especially those targeting cell-surface antigens, and first attempts to isolate antigen-specific T-cells. Furthermore, genetic predisposition seems relevant, although differently involved according to cancer association, with particular HLA observed in non-paraneoplastic cases and genetic abnormalities in the tumor cells in paraneoplastic ones. Finally, immune checkpoint inhibitors used as cancer immunotherapy may rarely induce cerebellar ataxias, but even this undesirable effect may in turn serve to shed some light on their physiopathology. Herein, we review the principal novelties of the last 20 years regarding autoimmune and paraneoplastic cerebellar ataxias.

Abstract
Autoimmune encephalitides constitute a diverse group of immune-mediated central nervous system disorders mainly characterized by the presence of antibodies targeting neuronal or glial antigens. Despite the notable contribution of antibody discovery to the understanding of their physiopathology, the specific immune cells and inflammatory mediators involved in autoimmune encephalitis are still poorly defined. However, cytokines have recently emerged as crucial signalling molecules in the pathogenesis of autoimmune encephalitis. Cytokines are biologically active, soluble, low-molecular-weight proteins or glycoproteins involved in a wide variety of physiological functions, including central nervous system development and homeostasis, immune surveillance, as well as proliferation and maturation of immune cells. Since unbalanced cytokine expression is considered a hallmark of many autoimmune central nervous system disorders, their identification and quantification has become an essential element in personalized medicine applied to the field of neuroimmunology. Several studies have explored the cytokine profile of autoimmune encephalitis, but their interpretation and comparison is challenging due to their small sample sizes and extremely high heterogeneity, especially regarding the cytokines analysed, type of sample used, and associated neural antibody. Only the cytokine profile of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis has extensively been investigated, with findings suggesting that, although humoral immunity is the main effector, T cells may also be relevant for the development of this disorder. A better understanding of cytokine dynamics governing neuroinflammation might offer the opportunity of developing new therapeutic strategies against specific immune cells, cytokines, antibodies, or intracellular signalling cascades, therefore leading to better outcomes and preventing undesired side effects of the presently used strategies. In this review, we first summarize the current knowledge about the role of cytokines in the pathogenesis of autoimmune encephalitis, combining theoretical analysis with experimental validations, to assess their suitability as clinical biomarkers. Second, we discuss the potential applicability of the novel targeted immunotherapies in autoimmune encephalitis depending on the immunobiology of the associated antibody, their limitations, as well as the main limitations that should be addressed in future studies.
