Legend: Chemo = chemotherapy, IO= immunotherapy, ChemoIO= combination chemoimmunotherapy, yrs= years, HR= hazard ratio, CI= confidence interval. Kidney function was assessed by creatinine within 30 days of start of therapy. Subjects with missing values were excluded from the multivariate analysis (Sequential Chemo IO: 58, Concurrent ChemoIO: 10 patients excluded).
