Incidence and Predictors of Immune‐Related Hypothyroidism Under Pembrolizumab Across Gynecologic Malignancies and Melanoma: A Real‐World Cohort Study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) frequently cause thyroid immune‐related adverse events (irAEs). Permanent hypothyroidism, the clinically most relevant phenotype, requires lifelong hormone replacement. We investigated its incidence, course, risk factors, and prognostic relevance under pembrolizumab.
