Meta-Analysis
The efficacy and safety of immune-checkpoint inhibitors plus chemotherapy versus chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer: An updated systematic review and meta-analysis.
BACKGROUND
Immune-checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs) combined with chemotherapy are emerging as an effective first-line treatment in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); however, reports on the magnitude of effectiveness and safety are conflicting.
METHODS
Relevant articles published before February 2022 were searched in PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library. The study included all randomized controlled trials that evaluated ICIs with chemotherapy versus chemotherapy for the treatment of NSCLC. Among the outcomes were overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), and treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs).
RESULTS
Our meta-analysis included a total of 12 studies. Overall analysis indicated that ICIs plus chemotherapy could significantly improve OS (HR = 0.79; 95% CI: 0.74-0.84; I2 = 44.4%, P = 0.055), PFS (HR = 0.62; 95% CI: 0.59-0.67; I2 = 75.3%, P = 0.000), and ORR (RR = 1.48; 95% CI: 1.27-1.73; I2 = 79.0%, P = 0.000) when compared to chemotherapy treatments. Subgroup analysis showed that PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors combined with chemotherapy significantly improved OS, PFS, and ORR when compared with chemotherapy with decreased grade 1-2 TRAEs. In addition, female patients with nonsquamous histology might receive more OS benefit from ICIs plus chemotherapy when compared to chemotherapy alone. Despite the fact that CTLA-4 inhibitors combined with chemotherapy increased PFS, there were no benefits gained in OS nor ORR. When PD-L1/CTLA-4 inhibitors were added to chemotherapy, the risk of grade 3-5 adverse events increased whereas PD-1 inhibitors did not.
CONCLUSIONS
ICIs plus chemotherapy, compared with chemotherapy, were associated with significantly improved PFS, ORR, and OS in NSCLC therapy. However, PD-L1/CTLA-4 inhibitors plus chemotherapy could increase the risk of grade 3-5 adverse events, but not PD-1 inhibitors plus chemotherapy.

Meta-Analysis
PURPOSE
The objective of this study was to investigate the risk of cardiovascular toxicities related to PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in solid tumors.
METHODS
A literature search was performed following the participants, interventions, comparisons, outcomes, and study design (PICOS) principles, and the study adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Data analysis was conducted using Review Manager version 5.4.
RESULTS
This meta-analysis included 69 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) divided into five groups based on the treatment regimens: PD-1/PD-L1 + chemotherapy versus chemotherapy, PD-1/PD-L1 versus chemotherapy, PD-1/PD-L1 versus placebo, PD-1/PD-L1 + CTLA-4 versus PD-1/PD-L1 and PD-1/PD-L1 + CTLA-4 versus chemotherapy. Compared to chemotherapy treatment alone, PD-1/PD-L1 +chemotherapy significantly increased the risk of hypertension [all-grade (OR = 1.27, 95% CI [1.05, 1.53], p = 0.01); grade 3-5 (OR = 1.36, 95% CI [1.04, 1.79], p = 0.03)], hypotension [all-grade (OR = 2.03, 95% CI [1.19, 3.45], p = 0.009); grade 3-5 (OR = 3.60, 95% CI [1.22, 10.60], p = 0.02)], arrhythmia [all-grade (OR = 1.53, 95% CI [1.02, 2.30], p = 0.04); grade 3-5 (OR = 2.91, 95% CI [1.33, 6.39], p = 0.008)] and myocarditis [all-grade (OR = 2.42, 95% CI [1.06, 5.54], p = 0.04)]. The risk of all-grade hypotension (OR = 2.87, 95% CI [1.26, 6.55], p = 0.01) and all-grade arrhythmia (OR = 2.03, 95% CI [1.13, 3.64], p = 0.02) significantly increased when treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors compared to the placebo. The risks of cardiovascular toxicities are significantly higher with PD-1+CTLA-4 compared to PD-1 alone (OR = 2.02, 95% CI [1.12, 3.66], p = 0.02).
CONCLUSION
PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor leads to an increased risk of cardiovascular toxicities, especially hypertension, hypotension, arrhythmia, and myocarditis.

Meta-Analysis Comparative Study
Axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) and tisagenlecleucel (tisa-cel) are CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapies approved for relapsed/refractory aggressive large B cell lymphoma (LBCL). Significant costs and complex manufacturing underscore the importance of evidence-based counseling regarding the outcomes of these treatments. With the aim of examining the efficacy and safety of axi-cel versus tisa-cel in patients with relapsed/refractory aggressive LBCL, we performed a systematic literature search of comparative studies evaluating outcomes in relapsed/refractory aggressive LBCL after treatment with axi-cel or tisa-cel. We calculated odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for response, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), cytokine release syndrome (CRS), immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), and hematotoxicity. Meta-analysis and meta-regression were used to generate summary statistics. A total of 2372 participants were included in the 8 studies in our analysis. The dropout rate between apheresis and infusion was 13% for axi-cel versus 18% for tisa-cel, and the median time from apheresis to infusion was 32 days versus 45 days. Axi-cel showed higher odds for a complete response (OR, 1.65; P < .001) and was associated with higher odds for PFS at 1 year after infusion (OR, .60; P < .001). OS appeared to be improved with axi-cel (OR, .84; 95% CI, .68 to 1.02; P = .08), whereas the cumulative incidence of nonrelapse mortality (NRM) was 11.5% for axi-cel versus 3.7% for tisa-cel (P = .002). The main predictors for survival were lactate dehydrogenase level, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status, and response to bridging, and axi-cel maintained superior efficacy even in elderly patients. In terms of safety, axi-cel was associated with significantly higher odds of any-grade CRS (OR, 3.23; P < .001), but not of grade ≥3 CRS (P = .92). Axi-cel was associated with significantly higher odds of severe ICANS grade ≥3 (OR, 4.03; P < .001). In terms of hematotoxicity, axi-cel was significantly associated with higher odds of severe neutropenia at 1 month after infusion (OR, 2.06; P = .003). As a result, axi-cel was associated with significantly greater resource utilization, including prolonged hospital stay, more frequent intensive care admission, and use of agents such as tocilizumab for toxicity management. We provide strong evidence of the greater efficacy of axi-cel versus tisa-cel in relapsed/refractory aggressive LBCL. The higher toxicity and NRM seen with axi-cel might not counterbalance the overall results, highlighting the need for timely intervention and careful selection of patients, balancing resource utilization and clinical benefit.

Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND
Psychoneuroimmunological mechanisms and the gut-brain axis appear relevant to disease activity and progression in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). A recent review showed no effect of psychological therapies on self-reported disease activity in IBD. This meta-analysis aims to establish whether interventions targeting mood outcomes (e.g., depression, anxiety and stress) impact inflammation levels in IBD and possible moderators of these effects.
METHODS
The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were followed. We searched five electronic databases and included randomised controlled trials where interventions targeted mood and assessed inflammatory outcomes pre- and post-intervention in adults with IBD. Independent reviewers screened studies, extracted data, and assessed methodological quality. Data were pooled to estimate standardised mean differences (SMDs) with 95% Confidence Intervals (CIs). A random-effects robust variance estimation accounted for studies measuring multiple biomarkers. Intervention type, mood as a primary or secondary outcome, effect on mood outcomes and IBD subtype were investigated as treatment effect moderators. Where there were sufficient biomarkers, individual meta-analyses were run (Pre-registration PROSPERO: CRD42023389401).
FINDINGS
28 RCTs involving 1789 participants met inclusion criteria. Interventions demonstrated small, statistically significant effects on biomarkers (-0.35, 95% CI: -0.48, -0.22, p < 0.001) and medium effects on mood outcomes (-0.50, 95% CI: -0.73, -0.27, p < 0.001), without evidence of substantive heterogeneity or publication bias. Individual analyses showed small effects for improved faecal calprotectin (-0.19, 95% CI: -0.34, -0.03, p = 0.018) and C-Reactive Protein (-0.29, 95% CI: -0.47, -0.10, p = 0.002). Effect sizes were larger for psychological therapy interventions (compared with exercise or antidepressants) and when there was an effect (SMD ≥0.2) on mood.
INTERPRETATION
Treatments which address mood outcomes have beneficial effects on generic inflammation as well as disease-specific biomarkers (faecal calprotectin and C-Reactive Protein). Psychological interventions and interventions with larger treatment effects on mood accentuated the effect on biomarkers. More research is required to understand the biological or behavioural mechanisms underlying this effect.

Meta-Analysis Review
Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR T-cell) therapy is an effective treatment for relapsed/refractory (R/R) large B cell lymphoma (LBCL). However, patients with central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma were excluded in most of the CAR T-cell therapy trials. This meta-analysis assesses the efficacy with CAR T-cell therapy in LBCL patients with CNS involvement. Two reviewers independently searched PubMed and Cochrane Library to identify all published literature associated with United States Food and Drug Administration approved CAR T-cell therapies for LBCL. Patients with CNS LBCL were included. Meta-analysis of proportion was performed to evaluate the overall response (ORR), complete response (CR) for efficacy, and cytokine release syndrome and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome for safety assessment. Nineteen studies were qualified for inclusion with 141 CNS LBCL patients. The ORR and CR rates were 61% and 55% respectively. The median overall survival (OS) was 8.8 months, and the median progression free survival (PFS) was 4.4 months. Severe immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (grade≥3) were reported in 25% (32/130) patients and severe cytokine release syndrome (grade≥3) were found in 10% (13/124) of the patients. The safety and efficacy of CAR T-cell therapy in CNS LBCL patients appears comparable to patients without CNS involvement.

Meta-Analysis Review
BACKGROUND
Tocilizumab has demonstrated optimal efficacy and safety in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) from clinical trials. However, the risk of hepatitis B virus reactivation (HBVr) in these patients remains uncertain because patients with underlying HBV have been excluded in phase III studies.
METHODS
Systematical reviews were conducted on PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials up to 21 February 2023. Random-effects meta-analysis was performed to calculate the pooled incidence of HBV reactivation.
RESULTS
We included 0 clinical trials and 11 observational studies with a total of 25 HBsAg and 322 HBsAg/anti-HBc RA patients. Among the HBsAg patients without antiviral prophylaxis, the pooled rate was 69.4% (95% CI, 32.9-91.3), with a median time of 4 months (range, 1-8 months) from tocilizumab initiated. Half of these patients with HBVr experienced hepatitis flare-up but no deaths. HBVr was eliminated with prophylaxis in this population. Among HBsAg/anti-HBc patients, the pooled incidence of reactivation was 3.3% (95% CI, 1.6-6.7), with a median time of 10 months (range, 2-43 months) from tocilizumab initiated. HBVr was not associated with hepatitis flare-up and death. HBsAg/anti-HBc patients without anti-HBs antibodies had a significantly higher risk of HBVr (Odds ratio, 12.20; 95% CI, 1.16-128.06).
CONCLUSIONS
This systematic review indicated that the risk of HBVr in RA patients with anti-HBs, HBsAg, or HBsAg/anti-HBc cannot be ignored but may be avoided. Clinicians should consider implementing appropriate antiviral prophylaxis and monitoring policies for RA patients to avoid unnecessary hepatic side effects from tocilizumab treatment.

Meta-Analysis
PURPOSE
The numerous first-line treatment regimens for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive advanced breast cancer (ABC) necessitate a comprehensive evaluation to inform clinical decision-making. We conducted a Bayesian network meta-analysis (NMA) to compare the efficacy and safety of different interventions.
METHODS
We systematically searched for relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library and online abstracts from inception to June 1, 2023. NMA was performed to calculate and analyze progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and adverse events of grade 3 or higher (≥ 3 AEs).
RESULTS
Out of the 10,313 manuscripts retrieved, we included 28 RCTs involving 11,680 patients. Regarding PFS and ORR, the combination of trastuzumab with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) was more favorable than dual-targeted therapy. If only using trastuzumab, combination chemotherapy is superior to monochemotherapy in terms of PFS. It is important to note that the addition of anthracycline did not result in improved PFS. For patients with hormone receptor-positive HER2-positive diseases, dual-targeted combined with endocrine therapy showed better benefit in terms of PFS compared to dual-targeted alone, but it did not reach statistical significance. The comprehensive analysis of PFS and ≥ 3 AEs indicates that monochemotherapy combined with dual-targeted therapy still has the optimal balance between efficacy and safety.
CONCLUSION
Monochemotherapy (Docetaxel) plus dual-target (Trastuzumab and Pertuzumab) therapy remains the optimal choice among all first-line treatment options for ABC. The combination of trastuzumab with TKIs (Pyrotinib) demonstrated a significant improvement in PFS and ORR, but further data are warranted to confirm the survival benefit.

Meta-Analysis Review
The association between HER2-low status and survival in patients with metastatic breast cancer treated with Cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 inhibitors: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
PURPOSE
The cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors significantly altered the treatment landscape of hormone-positive (HR+), HER2- metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, biomarkers predicting long-term benefit and early progression are yet to be defined. Several studies suggested the possibility of diminished efficacy in patients with HER2-low disease. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the association between low-level HER2 expression and efficacy outcomes (PFS, OS, ORR) with CDK 4/6 inhibitors.
METHODS
The Pubmed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases were used to systematically filter the published studies from inception to 08 August 2023 for this systemic review. Studies including MBC patients treated with CDK 4/6 inhibitors and reported survival outcomes according to HER2 expression were included. We performed the meta-analyses with the generic inverse-variance method with a fixed-effects model and used HRs with 95% two-sided CIs as the principal summary measure.
RESULTS
Nine studies encompassing 2705 patients were included in the analyses. In the pooled analysis of nine studies, the risk of progression and/or death was higher in patients with HER2-low tumors compared to HER2-zero (HR: 1.22, 95% CI 1.10-1.35, p < 0.001). In the pooled analysis of five studies, although the median follow-up was short, the risk of death was higher in the HER2-low group compared to the HER2-zero group (HR: 1.22, 95% CI 1.04-1.44, p = 0.010).
CONCLUSION
The available evidence demonstrates a significantly higher risk of progression or death with CDK 4/6 inhibitors in HER2-low tumors. Further research is needed to improve outcomes in patients with HR+-HER2-low tumors.

Meta-Analysis Review
BACKGROUND
The availability of robust biomarkers of endothelial activation might enhance the identification of subclinical atherosclerosis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We investigated this issue by conducting a systematic review and meta-analysis of cell adhesion molecules in RA patients.
METHODS
We searched electronic databases from inception to 31 July 2023 for case-control studies assessing the circulating concentrations of immunoglobulin-like adhesion molecules (vascular cell, VCAM-1, intercellular, ICAM-1, and platelet endothelial cell, PECAM-1, adhesion molecule-1) and selectins (E, L, and P selectin) in RA patients and healthy controls. Risk of bias and certainty of evidence were assessed using the JBI checklist and GRADE, respectively.
RESULTS
In 39 studies, compared to controls, RA patients had significantly higher concentrations of ICAM-1 (standard mean difference, SMD = 0.81, 95% CI 0.62-1.00, p < 0.001; I = 83.0%, p < 0.001), VCAM-1 (SMD = 1.17, 95% CI 0.73-1.61, p < 0.001; I = 95.8%, p < 0.001), PECAM-1 (SMD = 0.82, 95% CI 0.57-1.08, p < 0.001; I = 0.0%, p = 0.90), E-selectin (SMD = 0.64, 95% CI 0.42-0.86, p < 0.001; I = 75.0%, p < 0.001), and P-selectin (SMD = 1.06, 95% CI 0.50-1.60, p < 0.001; I = 84.8%, p < 0.001), but not L-selectin. In meta-regression and subgroup analysis, significant associations were observed between the effect size and use of glucocorticoids (ICAM-1), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (VCAM-1), study continent (VCAM-1, E-selectin, and P-selectin), and matrix assessed (P-selectin).
CONCLUSIONS
The results of our study support a significant role of cell adhesion molecules in mediating the interplay between RA and atherosclerosis. Further studies are warranted to determine whether the routine use of these biomarkers can facilitate the detection and management of early atherosclerosis in this patient group.

BACKGROUND
Increased understanding of how the immune system regulates tumor growth has innovated the use of immunotherapeutics to treat various cancers. The impact of such therapies, including programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) inhibitors, on the production of antidrug antibodies (ADAs) and their impact on outcomes, is poorly understood. This study aims to evaluate the clinical trial evidence on ADA incidence associated with PD-1, PD-L1, and CTLA-4 inhibitors in the treatment of cancer and to assess associations between treatment administered, ADA incidence, and treatment outcomes.
METHODS
Embase, Medline, and EBM Reviews were searched via the OVID platform on February 15, 2022. Conference proceedings, clinical trial registries, and global regulatory and reimbursement body websites were also searched. Eligible publications included clinical trials enrolling patients receiving cancer treatment with either PD-1, PD-L1, or CTLA-4 reporting outcomes including incidence or prevalence of ADAs and the impact of immunogenicity on treatment safety and efficacy. Reference lists of eligible publications were also searched. The review was conducted and reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses and evidence quality assessment was conducted using the appropriate Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal tool.
RESULTS
After screening 4160 records and reviewing 97 full publications, a total of 34 publications reporting on 68 trials were included. A further 41 relevant clinical trials were identified on ClinicalTrials.gov and a further 32 from searches of packaging inserts. In total, 141 relevant trials covering 15 different checkpoint inhibitors and 16 different tumor types were included. Across the included trials, atezolizumab was associated with the highest incidence of ADAs (29.6% of 639 patients), followed by nivolumab (11.2% of 2,085 patients). Combination checkpoint inhibitor treatment appeared to increase the rate of ADAs versus monotherapy. Only 17 trials reported on the impact of ADAs on treatment outcomes with mixed results for the impact of ADAs on treatment efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics.
CONCLUSIONS
Checkpoint inhibitors for the treatment of cancer are immunogenic, with the incidence of treatment-emergent ADAs varying between individual therapies. It remains unclear what impact ADAs have on treatment outcomes.
