Factors associated with the efficacy of first-line nivolumab plus chemotherapy in advanced gastric cancer patients with deficient mismatch repair
Gastric Cancer(2024)
摘要
We aimed to investigate clinicopathologic factors leading to different clinical outcomes in patients with deficient mismatch repair protein (d-MMR) gastric cancer (GC) treated with nivolumab plus chemotherapy (nivolumab chemotherapy). This retrospective study included 28 patients with d-MMR advanced GC treated with first-line nivolumab chemotherapy. As a control group, 68 treated with first-line chemotherapy alone were included. Clinicopathological factors, including the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and PD-L1 combined positive score (CPS), were analyzed with regards to the efficacy outcomes. Progression-free survival (PFS) was longer (median PFS; not reached [NR] vs. 5.2 months, hazard ratio [HR] 0.28, P < 0.001), and overall survival (OS) tended to be longer (median OS; NR vs. 17.9 months, HR 0.43, P = 0.057) in patients treated with nivolumab chemotherapy than those treated with chemotherapy. The PFS benefit of nivolumab chemotherapy over chemotherapy was pronounced in the subgroup with a lower NLR (< 3.80 [median NLR]) (HR 0.10), whereas it was less prominent in patients with a high NLR (≥ 3.80) (HR 0.58). Among patients treated with nivolumab chemotherapy, PFS was worse in patients with a higher NLR (≥ 3.80) than in those with a lower NLR (< 3.80), and survival outcomes were similar between those with PD-L1 CPS ≥ 5 and < 5. Nivolumab chemotherapy was associated with better efficacy outcomes than chemotherapy alone among patients with d-MMR GC, but survival outcomes were poor even with nivolumab chemotherapy for those with a high NLR. Survival outcomes were not different according to PD-L1 CPS among d-MMR patients treated with nivolumab chemotherapy.
