Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) can cause profound immune-related adverse events (irAEs). The host genetic background is likely to play a role in irAE susceptibility because the presentation of toxicity varies among patients and many do not develop irAEs despite continued ICI use. We sought to identify potential genetic markers conferring risk for irAEs. METHODS: We conducted a pilot exploratory...
