Background: The effectiveness of immunotherapies for non-small-cell lung cancer under real-world clinical settings remains uncertain. Materials & methods: Systematic searches of PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science were conducted. Random-effects models were used to estimate pooled median overall survival and progression-free survival estimates. Results: 36 studies of nivolumab were included for narrative synthesis and 11 of these studies were included for meta-analysis. Age, sex, histology and prior lines of treatment did not affect survival outcomes, while Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status and brain metastasis were inversely associated with survival. In the meta-analysis, nivolumab was associated with 9.6 months (95% CI: 8.4–10.9) of overall survival and 2.6 months (95% CI: 1.6–3.6) of progression-free survival. Conclusion: Very-low-certainty evidence suggested the real-world effectiveness of nivolumab was consistent with those observed in the clinical trials.

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of peripheral naive and memory CD8+ and CD4+ T cells and other immune cells in patients with oligometastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing radiotherapy (RT). Methods: A total of 142 patients with oligometastatic NSCLC treated with RT were enrolled, and their blood samples were collected within 3 days before RT. Immune cells were identified by flow cytometry. Results: Patients with high levels of naive CD8+ T cells had longer overall survival (p = 0.004) and progression-free survival (p = 0.001) than those with low levels of naive CD8+ T cells. Multivariate analyses revealed that naive CD8+ T cells were independently correlated with overall survival (p = 0.019) and progression-free survival (p = 0.024). Conclusion: The results suggest that peripheral naive CD8+ T cells may be an independent prognostic indicator for patients with oligometastatic NSCLC undergoing RT.
