Abstract

Immune checkpoint inhibitors induce durable responses in some patients with advanced cancer but may simultaneously trigger autoinflammatory immune-related adverse events (irAE). The pathogenesis of irAEs may relate to genetic predisposition, environmental insults, or tumor–host interactions. Elevated expression of certain cytokines may signal subclinical inflammation that evolves into severe irAEs with treatment.
