Purpose: Drugs that blockade interaction between programmed cell-death protein 1 (PD-1) and its ligand (PD-L1) are promising. Immune-related adverse events (irAEs) might be associated with favorable clinical outcomes, and thyroid dysfunction is one of the most common irAE. We evaluated the association of thyroid dysfunction during PD-1 blockade with the treatment efficacy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
