PD-1/PD-L1 Blockade Therapy in Advanced Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer: Current Status and Future Directions

Abstract: This article summarizes the latest clinical applications of PD‐1/PD‐L1 blockade therapy in advanced non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) worldwide and in China, reporting the bottlenecks related to the use of this therapy in clinic. An exploration of the underlying mechanism of PD‐1/PD‐L1 blockade therapy and biomarker identification will maximize the application of immune checkpoint inhibitors in advanced NSCLC and facilitate bedside‐to‐bench studies in cancer immunotherapy.

“…Traditional treatments for lung cancer have some insurmountable barriers. For example, molecular targeting drugs may not be effective when genomic testing reveals no targetable alteration, such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations, anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) or ROS1 translocation/re-arrangements (15). As traditional methods have been shown as ineffective against certain cancer types, the focus has shifted to immune cells, and immunotherapy for lung cancer is attracting increasing attention.…”

“…Recently, FSTL1 neutralizing antibodies were developed and found to display excellent e cacy in vitro [52]. Also, CTLA4, PD-1, and programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) inhibitors have shown promising results in lung cancer, yet the response was unclear in advancedstage GC [53,54]. The combined use of FSTL1 neutralizing antibodies with anti-CTLA-4 or anti-PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors may produce additive or synergistic effects, thus creating a new treatment option.…”

“…ICIs, particularly PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, are effective in treating melanoma, [ 29 ] renal cell carcinoma, [ 30 ] and colorectal cancer. [ 31 ] Research evidence shows that PD-1/PD-L1 blockades have improved overall survival (OS) than docetaxel for NSCLC [ 32 ] . The mechanism of PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibitors involves mainly restarting the T cell-mediated tumor cell death process; at the same time, interferes with the normal immune system.…”
