Checkpoint inhibitor therapy: Immune-related adverse event management/ Lori Davis, Mary Beth Casselbury, Sharon Wilson - Vol. 54 (11) pages 26-34 : Illustrations: 27 cm

Treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors for cancer is associated with a high prevalence of multiple immune-related toxicities. Immune-related adverse events (irAEs) can occur anytime during treatment and up to 3 months after treatment. This article discusses checkpoint inhibitor therapy and describes the implementation of a patient education program focused on recognizing immunotherapy irAEs and their toxicities.
