19-916: Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Rechallenge After Immune-related Adverse Events
Study Details
Study Description
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

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Rate of occurrence of second immune-related adverse events (irAEs) [Number of case reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) of individual safety case reports, through study completion (an average of 2 months).]
percentage of cases experiencing a second irAE among the rechallenged cases
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Description of cases experiencing an initial irAEs [Number of case reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) of individual safety case reports, through study completion (an average of 2 months)..]
description of clinical features of cases experiencing an initial irAEs
- Description of the rechallenge cases [Number of case reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) of individual safety case reports, through study completion (an average of 2 months)..]
description of clinical features of the rechallenged cases
- Description of the clinical features of cases experiencing a second irAEs [Number of case reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) of individual safety case reports, through study completion (an average of 2 months)..]
Description of the clinical features of cases experiencing a second irAEs
