To compare the risk of immune-associated pneumonitis between PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibitors, the meta-analysis was designed.
The difference in risk of immune-associated pneumonitis between PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibitors was assessed by two different meta-analysis methods, the Mirror-pairing and the PRISMA guidelines.
A total of eighty-eight reports were used for meta-analysis, while thirty-two studies were used for the Mirror-pairing. Both PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibitors (used alone or combined with chemotherapy) increased the risk of developing immune-related pneumonitis (P < 0.00001; P < 0.00001). Based on indirect analyses results (subgroup analyses), the risk of PD-L1-induced pneumonitis was weaker than that of PD-1 inhibitors when the control group was chemotherapy (OR = 3.33 vs. 5.43) or placebo (OR = 2.53 vs. 3.19), while no obvious significant differences were found (P = 0.17; P = 0.53). For the Mirror-pairing-based meta-analysis, the risk of PD-1-induced pneumonitis was significantly higher than that of PD-L1 inhibitors (OR = 1.46, 95%CI [1.08, 1.98], I = 0%, Z = 2.47 (P = 0.01)). However, this difference was not significant, when they were combined with chemotherapy (OR = 1.05, 95%CI [0.68, 1.60], I = 38%, Z = 0.21 (P = 0.84)).
Both PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibitors increased the risk of immune-related pneumonitis, while the risk of PD-1-induced pneumonitis was significantly higher than that of PD-L1 inhibitors.
比较 PD-1 和 PD-L1 抑制剂引发免疫相关肺炎的风险,设计了本次荟萃分析。
采用两种不同的荟萃分析方法,即镜像配对和 PRISMA 指南,评估 PD-1 和 PD-L1 抑制剂引发免疫相关肺炎风险的差异。
共有 88 项报告用于荟萃分析,其中 32 项研究用于镜像配对。PD-1 和 PD-L1 抑制剂(单独使用或与化疗联合使用)均增加了发生免疫相关肺炎的风险(P<0.00001;P<0.00001)。基于间接分析结果(亚组分析),当对照组为化疗(OR=3.33 比 5.43)或安慰剂(OR=2.53 比 3.19)时,PD-L1 诱导性肺炎的风险弱于 PD-1 抑制剂,但差异无统计学意义(P=0.17;P=0.53)。对于基于镜像配对的荟萃分析,PD-1 诱导性肺炎的风险明显高于 PD-L1 抑制剂(OR=1.46,95%CI [1.08, 1.98],I=0%,Z=2.47(P=0.01))。然而,当与化疗联合使用时,这种差异无统计学意义(OR=1.05,95%CI [0.68, 1.60],I=38%,Z=0.21(P=0.84))。
PD-1 和 PD-L1 抑制剂均增加了免疫相关肺炎的风险,而 PD-1 诱导性肺炎的风险明显高于 PD-L1 抑制剂。
