Sumario: | Recently, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) present promising application prospects in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study aimed to investigate optimal treatment strategy by comparing the first-line treatment strategies with ICIs in NSCLC. We retrieved relevant studies on first-line therapy of NSCLC with ICIs. Primary outcomes were overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary outcomes were treatment-related serious adverse events (tr-SAEs) with grade 3 or higher and objective response rate (ORR). We also conducted a Bayesian network meta-analysis. We included 14 studies involving 7,823 patients and compared seven different interventions. In PD-L1 nonselective NSCLC, nivolumab+ipilimumab had good PFS and ORR, pembrolizumab significantly prolonged OS, and nivolumab had the fewest adverse events (AEs). For PD-L1-positive patients, nivolumab remarkably prolonged OS. For those with negative PD-L1, nivolumab+ipilimumab also showed an advantage. In addition, nivolumab+ipilimumab significantly prolonged the PFS in both PD-L1-negative and -positive patients. For patients with PD-L1 tumor proportion score (TPS) within 1–49%, atezolizumab+chemotherapy remarkably prolonged PFS and OS. For those with PD-L1 TPS ≥50%, pembrolizumab prolonged OS and atezolizumab+chemotherapy significantly prolonged PFS. Nivolumab combined with ipilimumab showed advantages in OS, PFS and ORR in most patients. Nivolumab+ipilimumab may be the optimal first-line therapy for NSCLC. |
