Sunitinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is frequently used in the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). As a multikinase inhibitor, numerous off-target side effects of this medication are widely recognized. More recently, endocrine side effects, including hypoadrenalism, are becoming more apparent. We report a case in which a 71-year-old female experienced recurrent adrenal crises when managed with sunitinib for mRCC on a background of immune-related hypopituitarism and hypoadrenalism as a result of previous treatment with immunotherapy. Clinicians should be aware of this potential toxicity when using such medications and consider further investigation in the appropriate clinical setting.
