The efficacy and safety of immune checkpoint inhibitors for patients with EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer who progressed on EGFR tyrosine-kinase inhibitor therapy: A systematic review and network meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated who progressed on EGFR tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) therapy have limited therapeutic options. There is still no consensus on the role of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in NSCLC with EGFR mutations.

Methods

We did a network meta-analysis (NMA) with a systematic literature search on PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and The Cochrane Library. We included all phase II and III randomized controlled trials (RCTs), non-randomized controlled trials (Non-RCTs), and retrospective studies. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were assessed through hazard ratios (HR). Objective response rate (ORR) and adverse events (AEs) were assessed through
