Age was assessed as a continuous variable.
Time between onset of ICI-associated irAE and RT was assessed as a continuous variable.
Time between last ICI treatment and RT was assessed as a continuous variable.
Mean lung dose was assessed as a continuous variable as the equivalent dose in 2 Gy fractions (EQD2) assuming α/β = 3 Gy, which take into consideration dose and fraction size (see Methods).
