A Support Vector Machine Based on Liquid Immune Profiling Predicts Major Pathological Response to Chemotherapy Plus Anti-PD-1/PD-L1 as a Neoadjuvant Treatment for Patients With Resectable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

ABSTRACT: The biomarkers for the pathological response of neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus anti-programmed cell death protein-1/programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) (CAPD) are unclear in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Two hundred and eleven patients with stage Ib-IIIa NSCLC undergoing CAPD prior to surgical resection were enrolled, and 11 immune cell subsets in peripheral blood were prospectively analyzed using multicolor flow cytometry. Immune cell subtypes were selected by recursive feature elimination and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator methods. The support vector machine (SVM) was used to build a model. Multivariate analysis for major pathological response (MPR) was also performed. Finally, five immune cell subtypes were identified and an SVM based on liquid immune profiling (LIP-SVM) was developed. The LIP-SVM model achieved high accuracies in discovery and validation sets (AUC = 0.886, 95% CI: 0.823-0.949, P < 0.001; AUC = 0.874, 95% CI: 0.791-0.958, P < 0.001, respectively). Multivariate analysis revealed that age, radiological response, and LIP-SVM were independent factors for MPR in the two sets (each P < 0.05). The integration of LIP-SVM, clinical factors, and radiological response showed significantly high accuracies for predicting MPR in discovery and validation sets (AUC = 0.951, 95% CI: 0.916-0.986, P < 0.001; AUC = 0.943, 95% CI: 0.912-0.993, P < 0.001, respectively). Based on immune cell profiling of peripheral blood, our study developed a predictive model for the MPR of patients with NSCLC undergoing CAPD treatment that can potentially guide clinical therapy.

Project description:BackgroundNeoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy confers a modest benefit over surgery alone for resectable non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In early-phase trials, nivolumab-based neoadjuvant regimens have shown promising clinical activity; however, data from phase 3 trials are needed to confirm these findings.MethodsIn this open-label, phase 3 trial, we randomly assigned patients with stage IB to IIIA resectable NSCLC to receive nivolumab plus platinum-based chemotherapy or platinum-based chemotherapy alone, followed by resection. The primary end points were event-free survival and pathological complete response (0% viable tumor in resected lung and lymph nodes), both evaluated by blinded independent review. Overall survival was a key secondary end point. Safety was assessed in all treated patients.ResultsThe median event-free survival was 31.6 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 30.2 to not reached) with nivolumab plus chemotherapy and 20.8 months (95% CI, 14.0 to 26.7) with chemotherapy alone (hazard ratio for disease progression, disease recurrence, or death, 0.63; 97.38% CI, 0.43 to 0.91; P = 0.005). The percentage of patients with a pathological complete response was 24.0% (95% CI, 18.0 to 31.0) and 2.2% (95% CI, 0.6 to 5.6), respectively (odds ratio, 13.94; 99% CI, 3.49 to 55.75; P<0.001). Results for event-free survival and pathological complete response across most subgroups favored nivolumab plus chemotherapy over chemotherapy alone. At the first prespecified interim analysis, the hazard ratio for death was 0.57 (99.67% CI, 0.30 to 1.07) and did not meet the criterion for significance. Of the patients who underwent randomization, 83.2% of those in the nivolumab-plus-chemotherapy group and 75.4% of those in the chemotherapy-alone group underwent surgery. Grade 3 or 4 treatment-related adverse events occurred in 33.5% of the patients in the nivolumab-plus-chemotherapy group and in 36.9% of those in the chemotherapy-alone group.ConclusionsIn patients with resectable NSCLC, neoadjuvant nivolumab plus chemotherapy resulted in significantly longer event-free survival and a higher percentage of patients with a pathological complete response than chemotherapy alone. The addition of nivolumab to neoadjuvant chemotherapy did not increase the incidence of adverse events or impede the feasibility of surgery.

Project description:BackgroundImmune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have shown promising prospects in locally advanced, resectable gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (GC/GEJC) immunotherapy, but their efficacy in neoadjuvant settings remains unclear. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of integrating programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors into neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) of GC/GEJC treatment.MethodsPubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, ClinicalTrials.gov, and main oncology conference databases were systematically searched up to 19 November 2022, and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and cohort studies that evaluated the efficacy and safety of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors plus NACT were included. The main outcomes were pathological complete response (pCR), major pathological response (MPR), R0 resection rate, and treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs).ResultsA total of 753 patients from 20 prospective studies were included in this meta-analysis. The pooled pCR and MPR rates from studies reporting were 21.7% [95% confidence interval (CI), 18.1%-25.5%] and 44.0% (95% CI, 34.1%-53.8%), respectively. The pooled incidence rate of total TRAEs was 89.1% (95% CI, 82.7%-94.3%), and the incidence rate of grade 3 to 4 TRAEs was 34.4% (95% CI, 17.8%-66.5%). The pooled R0 resection rate was reported to be 98.9% (95% CI, 97.0%-99.9%). Subgroup analysis has not found significant differences in efficacy and safety among different PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. Moreover, the efficacy in patients with positive PD-L1 expression (combined positive score ≥1) was comparable with that in the entire study population [pCR, 22.5% vs. 21.2% (p > 0.05); MPR, 48.6% vs. 43.7% (p > 0.05)].ConclusionThis systematic review and meta-analysis found that PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors combined with NACT for locally advanced GC/GEJC were well tolerated and may confer therapeutic advantages. The integration of ICIs into NACT has shown the potential for application in any PD-L1 expression population.
