Awesome question... too lazy to dive into the research, but in my experience, we throw steroids at the immune-related adverse events of checkpoint inhibitors.

EDIT: Here is a paper that outlines possible treatments. Approach to therapy depends heavily on severity of the reaction. If not responsive to steroids, other agents (eg TNF blockers) can be considered.
