Neurological-irAEs are a relatively common complication of ICI (8% of our cohort). Older age was not associated with its development or severity, in contrast with non-neurological-irAE which occurred less frequently in the elderly. Rechallenge did not result in life-threatening AEs. Development of any irAE was associated with longer survival, this association was stronger with n-irAE.
