“…In a meta-analysis of 112 trials including 19,217 patients, IRAE-associated fatality rates ranged between 0.36% for anti-PD-1 mono-therapy and 1.23% for PD1/PD-L1 plus CTLA-4 combinational therapy and were most commonly caused by colitis, pneumonitis, hepatitis, myocarditis and neurotoxic effects ( 145 ). Cardiovascular IRAEs, which include myocarditis, pericardial diseases, heart failure, dyslipidemia, myocardial infarction, and cerebral arterial ischemia, are, overall, relatively rare with an incidence ranging between ~3 and 20 per 1,000 patients ( 146 ). Yet, cardiovascular toxicities are severe in over 80% of cases ( 147 ) and myocarditis, which carries the highest fatality risk of all IRAEs (40–50%), is of particular prognostic relevance ( 145 , 147 ).…”
