Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized lung cancer (LC) treatment, demonstrating a significant improvement in overall survival. However high-grade immune-related adverse events (irAEs) may result in harmful and serious clinical outcomes, even death. Immune-related hepatitis (IRH) is a potentially serious complication of checkpoint blockade, with an incidence of 5%-10% for ICIs monotherapy, including 1%-2% with grade 3 or higher. Therefore, it is particularly important to explore new and better prognostic and predictive biomarkers for IRH.
