Cutaneous side effects are commonly seen with ICIs. PPE is a common dermatologic toxicity of certain tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). This effect has been previously reported with combination therapies consisting of an ICI plus a TKIs, but not with ICI monotherapy. Awareness of this potential side effect of ICIs would prevent unnecessary work-up, and lead to its prompt diagnosis and treatment.
