Clinical and Biological Variables Influencing Outcome in Patients with Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Treated with Anti-PD-1/PD-L1 Antibodies: A Prospective Multicentre Study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have become the standard of treatment for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, there are still many uncertainties regarding the selection of the patient who could benefit more from this treatment. This study aims to evaluate the prognostic and predictive role of clinical and biological variables in unselected patients with advanced NSCLC candidates to receive ICIs.

Methods

This is an observational and prospective study. The primary objective is the evaluation of the relationship between clinical and biological variables and the response to ICIs. Secondary objectives included: safety; assessment of the relationship between clinical and biological parameters/concomitant treatments and progression-free survi
