Abstract

Radiation recall pneumonitis (RRP) describes inflammatory reactions at previously irradiated fields of pulmonary tissue after exposure to certain systemic agents. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been reported as potential causal agents of RRP in lung cancer. Yet, the general characteristics and risk factors of ICI-related RRP remain unclear. This study investigates the incidence, characteristics, and risk factors of RRP induced by ICIs after thoracic radiotherapy in patients with lung cancer.
