UNASSIGNED: We performed a retrospective, observational, single-centre study in a cohort of advanced NSCLC patients treated with first-line chemo-immunotherapy. The primary endpoint was the incidence of VTE. Secondary endpoints were the cumulative incidence of VTE, the impact of PD-L1 on VTE occurrence, overall survival, the rate of VTE recurrence under anticoagulant treatment and the rate of bleeding complications.
UNASSIGNED: 109 patients were included, of whom 21 (19.3%) presented a VTE event during a median follow-up of 13 months. VTE incidence at 3, 6 and 12 months was 12.1%, 15.1% and 17.5% respectively. 61% were pulmonary embolisms, 9.5% were isolated deep vein thrombosis and 14.3% were central venous catheter-related thrombosis. Our study did not show a significant impact of PD-L1 on VTE occurrence. Overall survival at 6, 12 and 24 months was 81.9%, 74.4% and 70.3% respectively. Four patients developed a recurrent VTE under anticoagulation therapy 3 to 5 months after the first VTE event. One patient suffered from a major bleeding complication while under anticoagulation therapy, leading to death.
UNASSIGNED: VTE is a common complication in advanced NSCLC patients treated with concomitant chemo-immunotherapy. In our study, 19.3% of patients developed a VTE during a median follow-up of 13 months. PD-L1 did not appear to be associated with VTE occurrence. We recorded high VTE recurrence rates despite anticoagulant treatment. Further investigations are needed to determine if high PD-L1 expression is associated with VTE.
■我们进行了回顾性研究,观察,在接受一线化学免疫疗法治疗的晚期NSCLC患者队列中进行的单中心研究。主要终点是VTE的发生率。次要终点是VTE的累积发生率,PD-L1对VTE发生的影响,总生存率,抗凝治疗下VTE复发率和出血并发症发生率。
■109名患者被纳入,其中21人(19.3%)在13个月的中位随访期间出现VTE事件.3、6和12个月的VTE发生率为12.1%,分别为15.1%和17.5%。61%为肺栓塞,9.5%为孤立性深静脉血栓形成,14.3%为中心静脉导管相关性血栓形成。我们的研究未显示PD-L1对VTE发生的显著影响。6、12和24个月的总生存率为81.9%,分别为74.4%和70.3%。4例患者在首次VTE事件后3至5个月的抗凝治疗下出现复发性VTE。一名患者在接受抗凝治疗时出现严重出血并发症,导致死亡。
■VTE是合并化疗免疫治疗的晚期NSCLC患者的常见并发症。在我们的研究中,19.3%的患者在13个月的中位随访期间发生VTE。PD-L1似乎与VTE的发生无关。尽管抗凝治疗,我们记录的VTE复发率很高。需要进一步的研究来确定高PD-L1表达是否与VTE相关。
