非小细胞肺癌的联合免疫治疗现状

对于晚期非小细胞肺癌（non-small cell lung cancer,NSCLC）的患者来说,化疗、放疗、靶向治疗及抗血管生成治疗虽然可以改善其预后,但经相关研究发现,NSCLC患者的5年生存率仍不尽人意。近年来以程序性死亡蛋白1（programmed cell death protein 1,PD-1）/程序性死亡蛋白配体1（programmed death-ligand 1,PD-L1）抑制剂为代表免疫检查点抑制剂的出现为晚期NSCLC患者的治疗带来了新的希望。探索免疫检查点抑制剂联合化疗、抗血管生成药物、放疗的各项治疗策略是目前肿瘤界的热门话题,本文将对NSCLC联合免疫治疗的现状进行总结与讨论。     

病理学指导下的非小细胞肺癌个体化免疫治疗

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in EGFR-Mutated NSCLC: Dusk or Dawn?

Although immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) that target programmed cell death protein-1/programmed cell death ligand-1 axis have significantly shifted the treatment paradigm in advanced NSCLC, clinical benefits of these agents are limited in patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC. Several predictive biomarkers (e.g., programmed cell death ligand-1 expression, tumor mutation burden), which have been validated in EGFR-wild type NSCLC, however, are not efficacious in EGFR-mutated tumors, suggesting the unique characteristics of tumor microenvironment of EGFR-mutated NSCLC. Here, we first summarized the clinical evidence on the efficacy of ICIs in patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC. Then, the cancer immunogram features of EGFR-mutated NSCLC was depicted to visualize the state of cancer-immune system interactions, including tumor foreignness, tumor sensitivity to immune effectors, metabolism, general immune status, immune cell infiltration, cytokines, and soluble molecules. We further discussed the potential subpopulations with EGFR mutations that could benefit from ICI treatment. Lastly, we put forward future strategies to adequately maximize the efficacy of ICI treatment in patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC in the upcoming era of combination immunotherapies.     

How to make the best use of immunotherapy as first-line treatment of advanced/metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer

Antibodies that target programmed death 1 (PD-1) or its ligand [programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1)] have become a mainstay of first-line treatment of advanced/metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) without targetable genetic alterations. In this review, we summarize results from recent clinical trials that have evaluated the anti-PD-1 antibodies pembrolizumab and nivolumab and the anti-PD-L1 antibodies atezolizumab and durvalumab as first-line treatment as monotherapy and in combination with chemotherapy, other immunotherapies, and antiangiogenesis agents. We discuss factors that may influence treatment selection, including patient baseline clinical and demographic characteristics, tumor histology, and biomarkers such as PD-L1 expression and tumor mutation burden. While immunotherapy has become a central component of first-line treatment of most patients with advanced NSCLC, important questions remain about how treatment should be managed for individual patients.     

Current uses of check inhibitors in the fight against advanced and/or metastatic lung cancer: will immunotherapy overcome chemotherapy?

Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer death worldwide. Treatment for lung cancer has become increasingly more complex over the last several years. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have dramatically changed the treatment landscape of advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). There are currently 3 approved checkpoint inhibitors for patients with NSCLC who progressed after platinum-doublet chemotherapy (Pembrolizumab and /or Nivolumab and /or Atezolizumab). Avelumab and durvalumab are currently under investigation in phase 3 trials. Pembrolizumab has now been approved for first-line use in NSCLC, after a trial showed improved survival compared with chemotherapy in patients who were positive for programmed cell death ligand 1. Giving our patients the best, personalized approach to their individual cancer can improve their quality of life and survival and help us use our limited resources most efficiently. In the present review, we provide a new patient-oriented algorithm to guide clinicians’ decisions on the best choice of therapy for advanced NSCLC.     

Combination Strategies on the Basis of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer: Where Do We Stand?

The era of immune checkpoint inhibitors, especially programmed death-1 (PD-1)/programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) antibodies in the treatment of advanced non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is coming. Because of the lack of the definite biomarkers to select the optimal responders, only approximately 20% of patients with advanced NSCLC would respond to single checkpoint inhibitors-based immunotherapy. Moreover, primary or acquired resistance to conventional therapies is inevitable in most cases. Thus, combinations are pushed to move forward to be an alternative strategy and surely, it would be a future direction. Combination approaches on the basis of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors are currently designed to re-energize the immune system with complementary/synergetic mechanisms and could achieve durable antineoplastic effects in NSCLC. Herein, we highlight the potential combinations on the basis of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in NSCLC, with other immunotherapies, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and targeted therapy in this current review.     

The Significance of the PD-L1 Expression in Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer: Trenchant Double Swords as Predictive and Prognostic Markers

Lung cancer is the leading cause of death due to cancer worldwide. Surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy have been the standard treatment for lung cancer, and targeted molecular therapy has greatly improved the clinical course of patients with non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring driver mutations, such as in epidermal growth factor receptor and anaplastic lymphoma kinase genes. Despite advances in such therapies, the prognosis of patients with NSCLC without driver oncogene mutations remains poor. Immunotherapy targeting programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) and programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) has recently been shown to improve the survival in advanced NSCLC. The PD-L1 expression on the surface of tumor cells has emerged as a potential biomarker for predicting responses to immunotherapy and prognosis after surgery in NSCLC. However, the utility of PD-L1 expression as a predictive and prognostic biomarker remains controversial because of the existence of various PD-L1 antibodies, scoring systems, and positivity cutoffs. In this review, we summarize the data from representative clinical trials of PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors in NSCLC and previous reports on the association between PD-L1 expression and clinical outcomes in patients with NSCLC. Furthermore, we discuss the future perspectives of immunotherapy and immune checkpoint factors.
