In this report, a modified regimen based on IMpower 133 (carboplatin + etoposide + atezolizumab) was administered to a patient diagnosed with large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) who was concurrently undergoing haemodialysis. Adverse events led to the discontinuation of carboplatin and etoposide after the first course. Nevertheless, the patient exhibited reduction in pulmonary nodule and adrenal metastasis while receiving atezolizumab, indicating its sustained efficacy for a duration of 7 months. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first documented case demonstrating successful treatment with atezolizumab in LCNEC patients undergoing haemodialysis. Atezolizumab can be administered safely in patients undergoing dialysis and is a promising therapeutic option for dialysis patients with LCNEC.
在本报告中,我们对一名诊断为大细胞神经内分泌癌(LCNEC)且正在接受血液透析的患者,采用了基于IMpower 133(卡铂+依托泊苷+阿替利珠单抗)的改良方案进行治疗。在第一个疗程后,不良事件导致卡铂和依托泊苷停用。尽管如此,该患者在接受阿替利珠单抗治疗期间,肺部结节和肾上腺转移灶有所缩小,表明其持续疗效长达7个月。据我们所知,这是首例记录在案的在接受血液透析的LCNEC患者中使用阿替利珠单抗成功治疗的病例。阿替利珠单抗可安全地用于接受透析的患者,是透析的LCNEC患者的一种有前景的治疗选择。
