Summary: Immunotherapeutic products, and immune checkpoints inhibitors in particular, are increasingly used in the management of malignancies, both as monotherapies and in combination. Adverse events tend to be mild to moderate, but they can be severe or even life-threatening. Prompt recognition and effective management are vital. 'Managing Immune-Related Adverse Events' is an accessible overview that brings together clear explanations and management summaries. This highly readable handbook examines the possible effects of immunotherapies on the skin, gastrointestinal tract, liver, endocrine system and lungs, as well as less frequent reactions.
