Abstract

BACKGROUND: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) show promise in cancer treatment but can lead to immune-related adverse events (irAEs), notably affecting the skin. Understanding the factors behind these skin reactions is crucial for effective management during treatment. Hence, the aim of this study was to uncover associations between patient characteristics and cutaneous adverse reactions among cancer patients undergoing ICI treatment.
