If you haven't started seeing these yet, you will soon.  Checkpoint inhibitors are a form of immunotherapy being used for an increasingly broad range of malignancies.  They cause a diverse range of adverse events, due to releasing uncontrolled autoimmune hyperactivity.  Clinically this can mimic just about any rheumatologic condition.  Fortunately these events are quite treatable.  However, a high index of suspicion and prompt therapy is important.
