In this network meta-analysis (NMA), the efficiency and safety of PD-1 inhibitors + chemotherapy and PD-L1 inhibitors + chemotherapy were compared in the first-line therapy of patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC).
We searched research databases, conference abstracts, and trial registries and subsequently chose relevant studies and extracted dates. The NMA was conducted to estimate the efficiency and safety of the PD-1 inhibitors + chemotherapy and PD-L1 inhibitors + chemotherapy on overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), overall remission rate (ORR), and adverse events (AEs). Studies were assessed for quality. Subgroup analyses were used to evaluate study heterogeneity.
We included six randomized trials with a total of 3163 patients. Direct comparisons showed that patients who received either PD-1 inhibitors + chemotherapy (HR: 0.71, 95% CI: 0.57-0.87) or PD-L1 inhibitors + chemotherapy (HR: 0.74, 0.61-0.89) demonstrated significantly longer OS than those who received placebo + chemotherapy. The results of the NMA showed that no significant differences in OS (HR 0.96 95% CI: 0.72-1.3), PFS (HR 0.83, 95% CI: 0.51-1.4), and ORR (OR 1.3 95% CI: 0.66-2.5) were observed for PD-1 inhibitors + chemotherapy compared with PD-L1 inhibitors + chemotherapy, but the Bayesian ranking revealed that patients receiving PD-1 inhibitors + chemotherapy tended to have longer OS, PFS benefit, and better treatment response than patients receiving PD-L1 inhibitors + chemotherapy. In terms of safety, no significant difference was observed in their safety profiles.
In comparison to placebo + chemotherapy, PD-L1 inhibitors + chemotherapy and PD-1 inhibitors + chemotherapy significantly improved survival for ES-SCLC. According to the available data, PD-L1 inhibitors + chemotherapy and PD-1 inhibitors + chemotherapy had equivalent efficacy and safety; however, the level of evidence of this type of comparison is limited.
在这项网络荟萃分析(NMA)中,比较了 PD-1 抑制剂联合化疗与 PD-L1 抑制剂联合化疗在广泛期小细胞肺癌(ES-SCLC)一线治疗中的疗效和安全性。
我们检索了研究数据库、会议摘要和试验注册处,随后选择了相关研究并提取了数据。采用 NMA 来评估 PD-1 抑制剂联合化疗与 PD-L1 抑制剂联合化疗对总生存期(OS)、无进展生存期(PFS)、总缓解率(ORR)和不良事件(AEs)的疗效和安全性。研究质量进行了评估。采用亚组分析来评估研究异质性。
我们纳入了 6 项随机试验,共 3163 例患者。直接比较显示,接受 PD-1 抑制剂联合化疗(HR:0.71,95%CI:0.57-0.87)或 PD-L1 抑制剂联合化疗(HR:0.74,0.61-0.89)的患者的 OS 明显长于接受安慰剂联合化疗的患者。NMA 的结果显示,PD-1 抑制剂联合化疗与 PD-L1 抑制剂联合化疗在 OS(HR 0.96,95%CI:0.72-1.3)、PFS(HR 0.83,95%CI:0.51-1.4)和 ORR(OR 1.3,95%CI:0.66-2.5)方面无显著差异,但贝叶斯排序显示,接受 PD-1 抑制剂联合化疗的患者的 OS、PFS 获益和治疗反应均优于接受 PD-L1 抑制剂联合化疗的患者。在安全性方面,两者的安全性特征无显著差异。
与安慰剂联合化疗相比,PD-L1 抑制剂联合化疗和 PD-1 抑制剂联合化疗显著改善了 ES-SCLC 的生存。根据现有数据,PD-L1 抑制剂联合化疗与 PD-1 抑制剂联合化疗具有等效的疗效和安全性;然而,这种比较的证据水平有限。
