Odds ratio of programmed cell death-1 or ligand 1 inhibitor-related endocrine dysfunction in patients with lung cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

We designed the study to investigate the incidence risk of Programmed Cell Death-1 (PD-1) or Ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor-related endocrine dysfunction in patients with lung cancer.

Method

All the data were collected by 1 primary reviewer and then independently reviewed by 2 secondary reviewers according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISM) guidelines. Incidence risk of all-grade and grade 3-5?PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors related endocrine dysfunction in patients with lung cancer were taken into account.

Results

Overall, 12 clinical trials comprising 6108 patients were identified in this systematic review and meta-analysis. The incidence risk of hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism and adrenal insufficiency was higher in NSCLC patients receiving combination treatments. The incidence rate of all-grade of hypothyroidism was lower in PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor subgroup compared to chemotherapy (OR?=?22.62, 95%CI:9.79-52.25), while the similar result was seen in another treatment regimen (PD-1 + platinum-based chemotherapy vs platinum-based chemotherapy) (OR?=?2.93, 95%CI: [2.08, 4.11). The different result can be seen in the group related to the other treatment regimen (1PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor vs 2?PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors) (OR?=?0.40, 95%CI:0.21-0.76). All the results of the above analysis were considered to be statistical significant. Similar result could also be seen in meta-analysis related to hyperthyroidism and adrenal insufficiency.

Conclusion

The incidence risk of endocrine dysfunctions, including hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism and adrenal insufficiency, were higher for PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors group.
