Clinical characteristics of patients requiring emergency hospitalization due to immune-related adverse events: a retrospective study

Emergency hospitalization due to irAEs is a considerable concern in ICI therapy, occurring in 9.5% of treated patients. The high incidence of severe irAEs within the first 3 months of treatment underscores the need for early and vigilant monitoring. This study highlights the importance of recognizing and promptly managing irAEs to improve patient outcomes. Future strategies should focus on developing comprehensive management frameworks and enhancing patient and caregiver education to recognize symptoms that warrant immediate medical attention.
