Immuno-oncology therapy (IO) is associated with a variety of treatment-related toxicities. However, the impact of toxicity on the treatment discontinuation rate between males and females is unknown. We hypothesized that immune-related adverse events would lead to more frequent treatment changes in females since autoimmune diseases occur more frequently in females. Our aim was to determine if there was a difference in the rate of immunotherapy treatment change due to toxicity between males and females. The Oncology Research Information Exchange Network Avatar Database collected clinical data from 10 United States cancer centers. Of 1035 patients receiving IO, 447 were analyzed, excluding those who did not have documentation noting if a patient changed treatment (n = 573). Fifteen patients with unknown or gender-specific cancer were excluded. All cancer types and stages were included. The primary endpoint was documented treatment change due to toxicity. Four hundred and forty-seven patients (281 males and 166 females) received IO treatment. The most common cancers treated were kidney, skin, and lung for 99, 84, and 54 patients, respectively. Females had a shorter IO course than males (median 3.7 vs. 5.1 months, respectively, p = .02). Fifty-four patients changed treatment due to toxicity. There was no significant difference between females and males on chi-square test (11.4% vs. 12.5%, respectively, p = 0.75) and multivariable logistic regression (OR 0.924, 95% CI 0.453-1.885, p = .827). Significantly more patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) changed therapy due to toxicity (OR 2.491, 95% CI 1.025-6.054, p = .044). Females received a shorter course of IO than males. However, there was no significant difference in the treatment discontinuation rate due to toxicity between males and females receiving IO. Toxicity-related treatment change was associated with COPD.
