Clinical and Molecular Characteristics Associated With Survival Among Patients Treated With Checkpoint Inhibitors for Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: Importance:Checkpoint inhibitors have replaced docetaxel as the new standard second-line therapy in advanced non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), but little is known about the potential predictive value of clinical and molecular characteristics. Objective:To estimate the relative efficacy of checkpoint inhibitor vs docetaxel overall and in subgroups defined by clinicopathological characteristics. Data Sources:This systematic review and meta-analysis searched MEDLINE, Embase, PubMed, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials for randomized clinical trials published in the English language between January 1, 1996, and January 30, 2017. Study Selection:Randomized clinical trials that compared a checkpoint inhibitor (nivolumab, pembrolizumab, or atezolizumab) with docetaxel. For each trial included in this study, the trial name, year of publication or conference presentation, patients' clinicopathological characteristics, type of chemotherapy, and type of checkpoint inhibitor were extracted. Data collection for this study took place from February 1 to March 31, 2017. Data Extraction and Synthesis:Two reviewers performed study selection, data abstraction, and risk of bias assessment. Hazard ratios (HR) and 95% CIs for the overall population and subgroups were extracted. Pooled treatment estimates were calculated using the inverse-variance-weighted method. Results:In total, 5 trials involving 3025 patients with advanced NSCLC were included in this meta-analysis. These patients were randomized to receive a checkpoint inhibitor (nivolumab, 427 [14.1%]; pembrolizumab, 691 [22.8%]; or atezolizumab, 569 [18.8%]) or docetaxel (1338 [44.2%]). Checkpoint inhibitors were associated with prolonged overall survival, compared with docetaxel (HR, 0.69; 95% CI, 0.63-0.75; P?

Project description:ObjectivesImmune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have changed the landscape of lung cancer therapy. However significant proportions of patients have primary or acquired resistance to ICIs. Molecular characterization is critical for patient selection and overcoming resistance to checkpoint inhibitors. The purpose of this study is to investigate the molecular characteristics associated with ICIs outcomes in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.Materials and methodsAll advanced stage NSCLC patients at City of Hope who received ICIs (pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab, and durvalumab) were identified retrospectively. Overall survival (OS, from the start of the ICIs), Pathology and information on genomic alterations (GAs) including next-generation sequencing (NGS) data, tumor mutation burden (TMB), and Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) levels were collected. Chi-square and Fisher's exact test, Log-rank test were used for comparison of demographics, and survival curves respectively. Univariate and multivariate COX proportional hazards model was used for survival analysis.Results346 NSCLC patients were identified. Univariate and multivariate analysis found the association of OS with PD-L1 level ≥50% (Hazard ratio [HR], 0.19; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.06-0.59; P < 0.01), EGFR (HR 7.38; 95% CI, 1.15-47.42; P < 0.05), and TET2 (HR 0.15; 95% CI, 0.03-0.90; P < 0.05). The median OS was not reached [NR] for the 12 patients who had genomic alterations (GAs) in TET2 (12/108, 11%) versus (vs) 11.5 months in TET2 negative patients (98/108, 89%). Interestingly, GAs in TET2 and FANCA were mutually exclusive and patients who had GAs in FANCA gene (6%) had shorter OS (5.5 months vs 14.5 months, Log-rank test, P < 0.05).ConclusionsWe described the clinical and molecular features of NSCLC patients treated with ICIs. The association of GAs in TET2 with longer OS and its mutual exclusivity with FANCA GAs were insightful for developing novel therapeutic strategies to improve ICIs outcomes in NSCLC.

Project description:IntroductionRecent clinical trials have confirmed that anti-programmed cell death-1/ligand 1 (anti-PD-1/L1) combined with either anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (anti-CTLA-4) or anti-T-cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains (TIGIT) antibodies (dual immunotherapy) produced significant benefits as first-line therapies for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, it also increased the incidence of adverse reactions, which cannot be ignored. Our study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of dual immunotherapies in advanced NSCLC.MethodsThis meta-analysis ultimately included nine first-line randomized controlled trials collected from PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases until 13 August 2022. Efficacy was measured as the hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and risk ratio (RR) for the objective response rates (ORRs). Treatment safety was assessed by RR of any grade of treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) and grade ≥ 3 TRAEs.ResultsOur results demonstrated that, compared to chemotherapy, dual immunotherapy shows durable benefits in OS (HR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.69-0.82) and PFS (HR = 0.75, 95% CI: 0.67-0.83) across all levels of PD-L1 expression. Subgroup analysis also presented that dual immunotherapy resulted in improved long-term survival compared with chemotherapy in patients with a high tumor mutational burden (TMB) (OS: HR = 0.76, p = 0.0009; PFS: HR = 0.72, p < 0.0001) and squamous cell histology (OS: HR = 0.64, p < 0.00001; PFS: HR = 0.66, p < 0.001). However, compared with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) monotherapy, dual immunotherapy shows some advantages in terms of OS and ORR and only improved PFS (HR = 0.77, p = 0.005) in PD-L1 < 25%. With regard to safety, there was no significant difference in any grade TRAEs (p = 0.05) and grade ≥ 3 TRAEs (p = 0.31) between the dual immunotherapy and chemotherapy groups. However, compared with ICI monotherapy, dual immunotherapy significantly increased the incidence of any grade TRAEs (p = 0.03) and grade ≥ 3 TRAEs (p < 0.0001).ConclusionsAs for the efficacy and safety outcome, compared with standard chemotherapy, dual immunotherapy remains an effective first-line therapy for patients with advanced NSCLC, especially for patients with high TMB levels and squamous cell histology. Furthermore, compared to single-agent immunotherapy, dual immunotherapy is only considered for use in patients with low PD-L1 expression in order to reduce the emergence of resistance to immunotherapy.Systematic Review Registation: https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/, identifier CRD42022336614.

Project description:BackgroundResponse to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is affected by multiple factors. This study aimed to explore whether sites of metastasis are associated with clinical outcomes of ICIs in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.MethodsThe data of NSCLC patients with high programmed death-ligand 1 expression and good performance status receiving first-line ICIs monotherapy from Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital between May 2019 and July 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Metastatic sites included liver, bone, brain, adrenal gland, pleura, and contralateral lung. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared between different metastatic sites and metastatic burden by the Kaplan-Meier method. Organ-specific disease control rate (OSDCR) of different individual metastatic sites was evaluated.ResultsForty NSCLC patients meeting the criteria were identified. The presence of liver metastasis was significantly associated with shorter PFS (3.1 vs . 15.5 months, P = 0.0005) and OS (11.1 months vs . not reached, P = 0.0016). Besides, patients with bone metastasis tend to get shorter PFS (4.2 vs . 15.5 months, P = 0.0532) rather than OS ( P = 0.6086). Moreover, the application of local treatment could numerically prolong PFS in patients with brain metastasis (15.5 vs . 4.3 months, P = 0.1894). More metastatic organs involved were associated with inferior PFS ( P = 0.0052) but not OS ( P = 0.0791). The presence of liver metastasis or bone metastasis was associated with more metastatic organs (Phi[ϕ]: 0.516, P = 0.001). The highest OSDCR was observed in lung (15/17), and the lowest in the liver (1/4).ConclusionsMetastases in different anatomical locations may be associated with different clinical outcomes and local tumor response to ICIs in NSCLC. ICIs monotherapy shows limited efficacy in patients with liver and bone metastasis, thus patients with this type of metastasis might require more aggressive combination strategies.
