Risk Factors, Incidence, and Prognosis of Thromboembolism in Cancer Patients Treated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors

In recent years, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have become the standard treatment option for tumors. With the widespread application of ICIs, immune-related adverse events (irAEs) have gradually attracted the attention of researchers. Owing to the characteristics of ICIs, irAEs can affect each...
