Treatment ICI Combinations Dual ICI
ICI + VEGF Targeted
Why ICI combinations?
• Sometimes the treatment that is best for you may be an ICI combination
• ICI combinations may give a stronger and more effective anti-cancer effect than single-agent ICI.
Dual ICI [infusions into the vein]
• Sometimes ICI is combined with another ICI. We call this dual ICI.
• The immune-related side effects are often increased (and may be more severe) when dual ICI is given.
ICI + VEGF Targeted [infusion + oral tablet]
• Sometimes ICI is combined with VEGF targeted therapy.
• Side effects with this combination may be immune-related due to the ICI (but less severe than dual ICI),
or related to the VEGF targeted therapy, or both.
See page 17 for more information on ICI combinations.
