To review the demographics, clinical features, and response of orbital squamous cell carcinoma treated with cemiplimab.
This is a retrospective multi-institutional series. Patient characteristics, drug dosing, duration, and response to treatment were evaluated.
The study cohort consisted of 11 patients from 5 institutions. All patients received a regimen of 350 mg q 3 weeks and an average of 11.2 cycles (SD 5.8). No patient experienced significant side effects requiring treatment or cessation of cemiplimab. Complete response was achieved in 9 patients (82%) treated with cemiplimab.
Immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as cemiplimab provide a globe-sparing option for the treatment of orbital squamous cell carcinoma. It is important to consider these agents especially when orbital exenteration is the alternative.
回顾接受西普单抗治疗的眼眶鳞状细胞癌的人口统计学、临床特征和反应。
这是一项回顾性多机构研究。评估了患者特征、药物剂量、治疗持续时间和对治疗的反应。
研究队列包括来自 5 个机构的 11 名患者。所有患者均接受了 350mg q3 周的治疗方案,平均接受了 11.2 个周期(标准差为 5.8)。没有患者因需要治疗或停止西普单抗而出现明显的副作用。9 名(82%)接受西普单抗治疗的患者达到完全缓解。
免疫检查点抑制剂,如西普单抗为治疗眼眶鳞状细胞癌提供了一种保留眼球的选择。当眼眶切除术是替代方案时,特别需要考虑这些药物。
