Immunotherapy (IO) has altered the therapeutic landscape for multiple cancers. There are emerging data from retrospective studies on a subset of patients who do not benefit from IO, instead experiencing rapid progression with dramatic acceleration of disease trajectory, termed 'hyperprogressive disease' (HPD). The incidence of HPD ranges from 4% to 29% from the studies reported. Biological basis and mechanisms of HPD are currently being elucidated, with one theory involving the Fc region of antibodies. Another group has shown EGFR and MDM2/MDM4 amplifications in patients with HPD. This phenomenon has polarized oncologists who debate that this could still reflect the natural history of the disease. Thus, prospective studies are urgently needed to confirm the underlying biology, predict patients who are susceptible to HPD, and determine the modality of therapy post progression.
