Abstract
Background: Although immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have brought survival benefits to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), disease progression still occurs, and there is no consensus on the treatment options for these patients. We designed a network meta-analysis (NMA) to evaluate systemic treatment options for NSCLC after failure of ICIs.
Methods: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane Library databases were searched, then literature screening was followed by NMA. We included all Phase II and III randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) used hazard ratio (HR) for evaluation. Objective response rate (ORR) and adverse events (AEs) used odds ratio (OR) and relative risk (RR) effect sizes, respectively. R software was applied to compare the Bayesian NMA results.
Results: We finally included 6 studies. 1322 patients received ICI plus Chemotherapy (ICI + Chemo), ICI plus Anti-angiogenic monoclonal antibody (ICI + Antiangio-Ab), ICI plus Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (ICI + TKI), Tyrosine kinase inhibitor plus Chemotherapy (TKI + Chemo), Standard of Care (SOC), Chemotherapy (Chemo). TKI + Chemo is associated with longer PFS, higher ORR (surface under cumulative ranking curve [SUCRA], 99.7%, 88.2%), ICI + TKI achieved the longest OS (SUCRA, 82.7%). ICI + Antiangio-Ab was granted the highest safety rating for adverse events (AEs) of any grade, AEs greater than or equal to grade 3 and AEs of any grade leading to discontinuation of treatment (SUCRA, 95%, 82%, 93%).
Conclusions: For NSCLC after failure of ICIs, TKI + Chemo was associated with longer PFS and higher ORR, while ICI + TKI was associated with the longest OS. In terms of safety, ICI + Antiangio-Ab was the highest.
