The Difference

Immunotherapy, a chemotherapy-free process, has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy to prolong the overall survival (OS) of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, effective stratification factors for immunotherapy remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to discuss the potential stratification factors of NSCLC immunotherapy using immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) by integrating genomic profiling and tumor lesion–type information. In this study, 344 patients with NSCLC, whose clinical and tissue (including metastatic and primary lesions) mutation information was available, were included. The potential gene mutation status for predicting the outcomes of immunotherapy was screened by comparing the difference in mutation frequency between responders and non-responders. Our results indicated that the potential predictors of immunotherapy were significantly different, especially between patients with TP53(+) (including metastatic and primary lesions) and TP53(−) (including metastatic and primary lesions). According to this classification, patients with NSCLC who suggested immunotherapy had a higher OS than those who did not (25 months vs. 7 months, P < 0.0001, hazard ratio = 0.39). Collectively, this study provides a new perspective for screening immunotherapy predictors in NSCLC, suggesting that the TP53 mutation status and source of biopsy tissue should be considered during the development of immunotherapy biomarkers.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) targeting the programmed cell death (PD)-1 protein and its ligand, PD-L1, and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen (CTLA)-4, have revolutionized the management of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Unfortunately, only a small portion of NSCLC patients respond to these agents. Furthermore, although immunotherapy is usually well tolerated, some patients experience severe immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Liquid biopsy is a non-invasive diagnostic procedure involving the isolation of circulating biomarkers, such as circulating tumor cells (CTC), cell-free DNA (cfDNA), and microRNAs (miRNAs). Thanks to recent advances in technologies, such as next-generation sequencing (NGS) and digital polymerase chain reaction (dPCR), liquid biopsy has become a useful tool to provide baseline information on the tumor, and to monitor response to treatments. This review highlights the potential role of liquid biomarkers in the selection of NSCLC patients who could respond to immunotherapy, and in the identification of patients who are most likely to experience irAEs, in order to guide improvements in care.

Immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been proven to have great efficacy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as single agents or in combination therapy, being capable to induce deep and durable remission. However, severe adverse events may occur and about 40% of patients do not benefit from the treatment. Predictive factors of response to ICIs are needed in order to customize treatment. The aim of this study is to evaluate the correlation between quantitative positron emission tomography (PET) parameters defined before starting ICI therapy and responses to treatment and patient outcome. We retrospectively analyzed 92 NSCLC patients treated with nivolumab, pembrolizumab or atezolizumab. Basal PET/computed tomography (CT) scan parameters (whole-body metabolic tumor volume—wMTV, total lesion glycolysis—wTLG, higher standardized uptake volume maximum and mean—SUVmax and SUVmean) were calculated for each patient and correlated with outcomes. Patients who achieved disease control (complete response + partial response + stable disease) had significantly lower MTV median values than patients who had not (progressive disease) (77 vs. 160.2, p = 0.039). Furthermore, patients with MTV and TLG values lower than the median values had improved OS compared to patients with higher MTV and TLG (p = 0.03 and 0.05, respectively). No relation was found between the other parameters and outcome. In conclusion, baseline metabolic tumor burden, measured with MTV, might be an independent predictor of treatment response to ICI and a prognostic biomarker in NSCLC patients.
