Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) improve survival across a range of malignancies but are also associated with a spectrum of gastrointestinal immune-related adverse events (GI-irAE). This study aims to explore the diagnostic value of gastric and duodenal biopsies and address considerations in the differential diagnosis. We identified 39 patients who were treated with ICIs and had a subsequent upper GI biopsy. We recorded clinical data and endoscopic findings, and reviewed their gastric, duodenal, and colonic biopsies. 21 (54%) patients were treated with an anti-PD1/anti-PD-L1 antibody alone and 17 (44%) with combination anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 antibodies. 32 (82%) patients presented with diarrhea. Gastric alterations included peri-gland inflammation and granulomas while the duodenal changes included villous blunting, intraepithelial lymphocytosis, granulomas, and neutrophilic activity. We recognized four patterns of colonic injury: 1) acute self-limiting colitis, 2) lymphocytic colitis, 3) collagenous colitis, and 4) apoptosis only. 29 (74%) and 10 (26%) patients were diagnosed clinically as positive and negative for GI-irAE, respectively. Gastric peri-gland inflammation (p=0.004) and increased colonic lamina propria mononuclear cells (p=0.04) correlated with the clinical diagnosis of GI-irAE. Histologic alterations associated with ICI injury were more often identified in upper GI (71%) than colonic biopsies (65%). The morphologic spectrum of ICI-related GI disease is broad and mimics a range of infectious and inflammatory diseases. Gastric peri-gland inflammation represents one of the more characteristic histologic features of GI-irAE. The study underscores the importance of a comprehensive review of upper and lower GI biopsies for the diagnosis of irAE.
