Neoadjuvant immune-checkpoint inhibitors in lung cancer- a primer for radiologists

Daria Kifjak et al.

Summary: The introduction of neoadjuvant immune checkpoint inhibitors and platinum-based chemotherapy has revolutionized the treatment of early-stage lung cancer, leading to high rates of complete pathologic response and improved clinical outcomes. Diagnostic imaging plays a crucial role in evaluating treatment response, monitoring adverse events, and aiding in optimal treatment and diagnostic workup of resected tumor samples for surgeons and pathologists. Radiologists should possess knowledge of the strengths and limitations of diagnostic imaging in this context to provide valuable input in multidisciplinary team decisions.

Prognostic value of total tumour volume, adding necrosis to metabolic tumour volume, in advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer treated with first-line pembrolizumab

Florian Eude et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the prognostic value of total tumour volume (TTV) by adding necrotic tumour volume (NTV) to metabolic tumour volume (MTV) in immunotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. The results show that TTV has a higher predictive value in prognostic assessment.

Real-world data prognostic model of overall survival in patients with advanced NSCLC receiving anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors as second-line monotherapy

Cristina Julian et al.

Summary: This retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate prognostic factors of overall survival in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer and develop a novel prognostic model. Factors such as low albumin and chloride levels, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score, and high alkaline phosphatase and white blood cell levels were identified as risk-increasing prognostic factors. The model's performance was validated using data from the OAK trial, showing a c-index of 0.65 for the OAK trial validation cohort and 0.67 for the real-world data cohort.

Predicting treatment outcomes using 18F-FDG PET biomarkers in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer receiving chemoimmunotherapy

Chang Gon Kim et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the effectiveness of PET/CT variables and NLR as predictive biomarkers for clinical outcomes in patients with advanced NSCLC receiving pembrolizumab and chemotherapy as a first-line treatment. The results showed these markers were useful in predicting treatment response, PFS, and overall survival, suggesting their potential as effective markers for combined PD-1 blockade and chemotherapy in NSCLC patients.

The Value of 18F-FDG PET/CT in Predicting the Response to PD-1 Blocking Immunotherapy in Advanced NSCLC Patients with High-Level PD-L1 Expression

Karolien Vekens et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the usefulness of F-18-FDG PET/CT-derived parameters in predicting response and survival after PD-1 blocking immunotherapy in advanced NSCLC patients with high PD-L1 expression. The results indicated that baseline metabolic tumor volume did not impact clinical response and survival, while reduction of tumor volume after 8 to 9 weeks of treatment was a better predictor for prolonged survival.

David Lang et al.

Summary: PET/CT-derived biomarkers, such as MTV, can assist in prognostic evaluation and treatment decision-making in NSCLC patients receiving first-line ICI in combination with chemotherapy, with higher MTV associated with poorer PFS/OS outcomes.

NSCLC Biomarkers to Predict Response to Immunotherapy with Checkpoint Inhibitors (ICI): From the Cells to In Vivo Images

Virginia Liberini et al.

Summary: Lung cancer, especially non-small cell lung cancer, remains a primary cause of cancer-related death. New therapeutic approaches, including immunotherapy, have shown significant improvement in patient survival and quality of life. However, the identification of predictive biomarkers is crucial to determine which patients will benefit most from immunotherapy-based treatments.
