Hiccups is a  phenomenon caused by diaphragmatic irritation and rarely a side effect with immunotherapy.However if the patient is having persisting intractable hiccups..u can give a muscle relaxant like Oral Baclofen 10mg three times a day for three days if the patient has no other medical comorbidities.I advise you to better consult the treating physician to look into it
