ABSTRACT: Introduction
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) is a rapidly evolving treatment modality for stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Concomitant proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use can potentially reduce the clinical efficacy of ICIs; however, the consensus in recent literature has been conflicting. This study aims to analyze overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) outcomes in patients with NSCLC on ICI and concomitant PPI therapy.Methods
A literature search was done in 3 databases (Pubmed/Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Central). All studies meeting the inclusion criteria assessing the impact of PPIs on the efficacy of ICI in NSCLC patients were systematically identified. A random-effects network meta-analysis evaluated OS and PFS in the two arms.Resul
