Platinum-combination chemotherapy with or without immune-checkpoint inhibitor in patients with postoperative recurrent non-small cell lung cancer previously treated with adjuvant platinum-doublet chemotherapy: A multicenter retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Rechallenge with platinum-combination chemotherapy in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after disease progression on platinum-combination chemotherapy occasionally leads to a favorable response. The efficacy and safety of platinum-combination chemotherapy with or without immune-checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) for patients with recurrent NSCLC after surgery followed by adjuvant platinum-doublet chemotherapy remains uncertain.

Methods

Patients who relapsed after surgery plus adjuvant platinum-doublet chemotherapy and received platinum-combination chemotherapy with or without ICI between April 2011 and March 2021 at four Nippon Medical School hospitals were retrospectively analyzed.

Results

Among 177 patients who received adjuvant platinum-d
