Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Rechallenge After Immune-related Adverse Events

Conditions
Cancer
Registration Number
NCT04169503
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Caen
Brief Summary

Although immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have proved effective in treating many cancers, patients receiving ICIs may experience immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Little evidence exists on the safety of resuming these treatments after an irAE.

Our objective was to investigate the safety of ICI rechallenge after an irAE using the WHO pharmacovigilance database
