Meta-analysis of pemetrexed plus carboplatin doublet safety profile in first-line non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer studies

Abstract: Acknowledging the limitations of this meta-analysis of five trials, heterogeneous in patient's characteristics and trial designs, the results show that the PCb5 regimen was generally associated with a better safety profile than PCb6 across three statistical approaches, with no apparent impact on survival outcomes.

“…The safety and toxicity profiles observed for veliparib are consistent with previous studies of veliparib combined with C/PAC in NSCLC [30][31][32]34,42] and in other cancers [33,43]. A limited number of clinical trials have assessed the safety profile of C/PEM in NSCLC, and none in combination with veliparib [44]. Our findings show that the toxicities observed for patients treated with veliparib + nivolumab + C/PEM are similar to those treated with C/PEM and veliparib + C/PAC [31,44], and the toxicity profile of veliparib + nivolumab + C/PEM is consistent with a previous trial of C/PEM combined with pembrolizumab [45,46].…”

Furthermore, patients with nonsquamous NSCLC treated with veliparib + nivolumab + C/PEM in the current study showed similar frequency of hematological toxicities compared with patients receiving C/PEM only in a phase 3 trial [31].…”

“…Some adverse events after chemotherapy, such as myelosuppression and nausea, were unable to be compared separately. 50 Additionally, we performed subgroup analyses for EGFR 19 del and L858R mutations without other stratified clinical parameters due to incomplete and or immature data. In clinical practice, ethnicity, age, performance status (PS), the presence of brain metastasis, genomic characteristics, concurrent mutations and comorbidities, and patient wishes need to be considered in the decision-making process.…”
