A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were performed to examine treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) for combination of nivolumab (NIVO) and ipilimumab (IPI) compared to NIVO monotherapy among cancer patients. We searched several databases to identify relevant RCTs. Meta-analysis was performed using random-effects model. In fourteen RCTs included in the study, we found that compared to NIVO monotherapy, combination NIVO + IPI increased the risk of any grade (Risk Ratio (RR) = 1.11), and grade 3 or 4 (RR = 1.95) TRAEs. Compared to NIVO, NIVO + IPI had higher risk for any grade colitis (RR = 4.52), pneumonitis (RR = 3.06), and diarrhea (RR = 1.68).

A combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab (NIVO + IPI) is the only approved combination of two immune checkpoint inhibitors for metastatic or advanced renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). Inadequate evidence of treatment with NIVO + IPI has been reported in Japanese cohorts. We evaluated the clinical efficacy of NIVO + IPI treatment.

Introduction: Clinical trials have validated the use of nivolumab and pembrolizumab as adjuvant therapies regarding relapse-free survival (RFS) in patients with resected stage III and IV melanoma. Evidence in real-world patients is currently limited.
Material And Method: The CADIM trial (Characterization of adjuvant immunotherapy in melanoma patients) recruited a total of 81 patients with resected stage III and IV melanoma on nivolumab or pembrolizumab as adjuvant therapy from February 2018 through December 2022.

Introduction: Despite significant successes, immune checkpoint blockade fails to achieve clinical responses in a significant proportion of patients, predictive markers for responses are imperfect and immune-related adverse events (irAEs) are unpredictable. We used T-cell receptor (TCR) sequencing to systematically analyze prospectively collected patient blood samples from a randomized clinical trial of dual immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy to evaluate changes in the T-cell repertoire and their association with response and irAEs.
Methods: Patients with immunotherapy-naïve metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were treated with ipilimumab and nivolumab according to trial protocol (LONESTAR, NCT03391869).

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), which offer previously unknown therapeutic advantages, have revolutionized cancer treatment. However, the risk of thromboembolic events (TEEs) associated with ICIs remains unclear. The aim of this network meta-analysis (NMA) was to evaluate the incidence of TEEs in cancer patients receiving different treatment regimens.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors have improved the clinical outcomes of several cancers but have also been associated with a greater risk of immune-related adverse effects, especially when combined. The objective of this study was to investigate the incidence of myocarditis in relation to the use of dual concurrent versus single immune checkpoint inhibitors therapies.
Methods And Results: A cohort study was conducted using medical and pharmacy claims data (2011-2022) from a large US commercial insurer.
