The advent of immunotherapy, and in particular the use of immune-checkpoint inhibitors, has profoundly revolutionized the treatment of different cancers, including lung cancer. The use of immune-checkpoint inhibitors has prolonged survival in lung cancer with a strong benefit in a significant percentage of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer. Here, a clinical case of a patient who, despite testing negative for PD-L1, displayed a sustained complete response to immunotherapy treatment in advanced metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer is presented. Additionally, recent findings concerning the application of immunotherapy in this context are reviewed.
免疫疗法的出现,尤其是免疫检查点抑制剂的使用,已经深刻地革新了包括肺癌在内的不同癌症的治疗方法。免疫检查点抑制剂的使用延长了肺癌患者的生存期,对相当比例的非小细胞肺癌患者有显著益处。在此,介绍一例晚期转移性非小细胞肺癌患者的临床病例,该患者尽管PD-L1检测呈阴性,但对免疫治疗仍表现出持续的完全缓解。此外,还综述了在这种情况下免疫疗法应用的最新研究结果。
