This cohort study evaluated the association between immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs)-induced immune-related adverse events (irAEs) and mortality as well as ICI discontinuation among older adults with NSCLC. 2007-2019 Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results-Medicare linked database was used and survival analysis with time-varying exposure of irAEs was applied to estimate the associations. A total of 8,175 individuals were included, with 46.8% of whom developed an irAE. Cox regression models showed the occurrence of any irAEs was associated with increased risk of mortality (HR: 1.73, 95% CI: 1.63-1.82) and treatment discontinuation (HR: 1.87, 95% CI: 1.78-1.97). Some variability was observed in the effect on the two outcomes depending on the type of irAE.
这项队列研究评估了免疫检查点抑制剂(ICI)引起的免疫相关不良事件(irAE)与老年非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)患者死亡率和 ICI 停药之间的关系。使用了 2007 年至 2019 年的监测、流行病学和最终结果-医疗保险链接数据库,并应用具有 irAE 时变暴露的生存分析来估计相关性。总共纳入了 8175 人,其中 46.8%的人发生了 irAE。Cox 回归模型显示,任何 irAE 的发生与死亡率增加相关(HR:1.73,95%CI:1.63-1.82)和治疗中断(HR:1.87,95%CI:1.78-1.97)。根据 irAE 的类型,在对这两个结果的影响上观察到了一些差异。
