Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, immune-related adverse events still occur, of which checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (CIP) is the most common. We aimed to construct and validate a contrast-enhanced computed tomography-based radiomic nomogram to predict the probability of CIP before ICIs treatment in NSCLC. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 685 patients with NSCLC who were initially treated with ICIs. A total of 186 patients were included in our study, and an additional 52 patients from another hospital were considered for external validation. After radiomics feature extraction and selection, we applied a support vector machine classification model to distinguish CIP and used the probability as a radiomics signature. A radiomics-clinical logistic regression model was built using the filtered clinical parameters and a radiomic signature. Receiver operating characteristic, area under the curve (AUC), calibration curve, and decision curve analysis was used for inter-model comparison. RESULTS The combined radiomics-clinical model constructed using age, interstitial lung disease, emphysema at baseline, and radiomics signature showed an AUC of 0.935, 0.905, and 0.923 for the training, validation, and external validation cohorts, respectively. Compared with the clinical-only (AUC of 0.829, 0.826, and 0.809) and radiomics-only models (0.865, 0.847, and 0.841), the radiomics-clinical displayed better predictive power. CONCLUSION This combined radiomics-clinical model predicted the probability of CIP during ICIs treatment in patients with NSCLC with favorable accuracy and could therefore be used as an effective tool to guide clinical ICIs decisions.

Cancer Immunol Immunother 2024; 73:235. [PMID: 39271538 PMCID: PMC11399518 DOI: 10.1007/s00262-024-03834-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2024] [Accepted: 09/06/2024] [Indexed: 09/15/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (CIP) is a relatively uncommon but potentially life-threatening immune-related adverse event (irAE). Lung biopsies have not been commonly performed for CIP patients. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) analysis is a useful diagnostic approach for interstitial lung disease. However, BALF features were inconsistent across different studies. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 154 patients with pathologically confirmed malignancies and suffering from CIPs between July 2018 and December 2022. Patients who had bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) data available were enrolled in our study. Patient clinical, laboratory, radiological and follow-up data were reviewed and analyzed. RESULTS The BALF differential cell count and lymphocyte subset analysis were performed for 42 CIP patients. There were 32 males (76.2%). The mean age at diagnosis of CIP was 62.0 ± 10.4 (range: 31-78) years. The median time to onset of CIP was 98.5 days after the start of immunotherapy. There were 18 patients (42.9%) with low-grade CIPs and 24 patients (57.1%) with high-grade CIPs. The mean lymphocyte percentage was 36.7 ± 22.5%. There were 34 (81%) CIP patients with a lymphocytic cellular pattern. The median ratio of CD3+CD4+/CD3+CD8+ lymphocytes was 0.5 (0.3, 1.0). The ratio was less than 1.0 for 31 CIP patients (73.8%). However, there was no significant difference in the BALF features between patients with low-grade CIPs and those with high-grade CIPs. CONCLUSIONS The CD3+CD8+ lymphocytosis pattern was the main inflammatory profile in the BALF of CIP patients in this cohort. Targeting CD3+CD8+ lymphocytes might be a treatment option for CIPs.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) play a significant anti‑tumor role in the management of non‑small cell lung cancer. The most broadly used ICIs are anti‑programmed death 1 (PD‑1), anti‑programmed cell death‑ligand 1, and anti‑cytotoxic T lymphocyte‑associated antigen‑4 monoclonal antibody. Compared with traditional chemotherapy, ICIs have the advantages of greater efficiency and more specific targeting. However, the resulting immune‑related adverse events limit the clinical application of ICIs, especially checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (CIP). CIP chiefly occurs within 6 months of administration of ICIs. Excessive activation and amplification of cytotoxic T lymphocytes, helper T cells, downregulation of regulatory T cells, and over‑secretion of pro‑inflammatory cytokines are the dominant mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of CIP. The dysregulation of innate immune cells, such as an increase in inflammatory monocytes, dendritic cells, neutrophils and M1 polarization of macrophages, an increase in IL‑10 and IL‑35, and a decrease in eosinophils, may underlie CIP. Although contested, several factors may accelerate CIP, such as a history of previous respiratory disease, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, administration of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors, PD‑1 blockers, first‑line application of ICIs, and combined immunotherapy. Interestingly, first‑line ICIs plus chemotherapy may reduce CIP. Steroid hormones remain the primary treatment strategy against grade ≥2 CIP, although cytokine blockers are promising therapeutic agents. Herein, the current research on CIP occurrence, clinical and radiological characteristics, pathogenesis, risk factors, and management is summarized to further expand our understanding, clarify the prognosis, and guide treatment.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore the general characteristics and spectrum of hospitalized Chinese patients suffering from lung cancer with concomitant interstitial lung disease (LC-ILD). Furthermore, we compared their features before and after the period of immunotherapy for lung cancer. A retrospective analysis of the clinical characteristics of hospitalized LC patients with definite pathological diagnoses was performed from 2014 to 2021. ILD was defined after the review of chest CT imaging. There were 13,085 hospitalized LC patients. Among them, 509 patients (3.89%) had 551 cases of ILD. There were variable underlying causes of ILD, including idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (360 patients), LC treatment-associated ILD (134 cases), and connective tissue disease-associated ILD (55 patients). Although most LC-ILD patients were suffering from adenocarcinoma (204/40.1%), SCLC patients were prone to concomitant ILD (10.8% of all SCLC cases), followed by SCC (9.6% of all SCC cases). All but 10 LC-ILD patients received anti-LC treatment; however, only 39 (10.8%) LC-IIP patients received anti-ILD treatment. There were more LC-ILD patients in the 2018-2021 group than in the 2014-2017 group (5.16% vs. 2.03%, p < 0.001). The underlying causes of ILD were significantly different between the 2018-2021 group and the 2014-2017 group (p < 0.001). After adjusting for the number of hospitalized patients having the same LC pathological pattern, SCLC was determined to be the most likely to be concomitant with ILD, followed by SCC. Most LC-ILD patients were scheduled for anti-LC therapy; however, treatments for concomitant IIP were usually ignored. LC treatment-associated ILD should receive more attention than before.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint inhibitors tremendously improve cancer prognosis; however, severe-grade immune-related adverse events may cause premature death. Current recommendations for checkpoint inhibitor-related pneumonitis (CIP) treatment are mainly about immunosuppressive therapy, and anti-fibrotic agents are also needed, especially for patients with poor response to corticosteroids and a longer pneumonitis course. This is because fibrotic changes play an important role in the pathological evolution of CIP. Here, we report a case demonstrating that nintedanib is a promising candidate drug for CIP management or prevention, as it has potent anti-fibrotic efficacy and a safety profile. Moreover, nintedanib could partially inhibit tumor growth in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer, and its efficacy can be improved in combination with other anti-tumor therapies.

Cancer Manag Res 2022; 14:2469-2483. [PMID: 35991677 PMCID: PMC9386171 DOI: 10.2147/cmar.s374648] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2022] [Accepted: 08/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Radiation pneumonitis is a common and serious complication of radiotherapy for thoracic tumours. Although radiotherapy technology is constantly improving, the incidence of radiation pneumonitis is still not low, and severe cases can be life-threatening. Once radiation pneumonitis develops into radiation fibrosis (RF), it will have irreversible consequences, so it is particularly important to prevent the occurrence and development of radiation pneumonitis. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have rapidly altered the treatment landscape for multiple tumour types, providing unprecedented survival in some patients, especially for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, in addition to its remarkable curative effect, ICls may cause immune-related adverse events. The incidence of checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (CIP) is 3% to 5%, and its mortality rate is 10% to 17%. In addition, the incidence of CIP in NSCLC is higher than in other tumour types, reaching 7%–13%. With the increasing use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICls) and thoracic radiotherapy in the treatment of patients with NSCLC, ICIs may induce delayed radiation pneumonitis in patients previously treated with radiation therapy, or radiation activation of the systemic immune system increases the toxicity of adverse reactions, which may lead to increased pulmonary toxicity and the incidence of pneumonitis. In this paper, the data about the occurrence of radiation pneumonitis, immune pneumonitis, and combined treatment and the latest related research results will be reviewed.

Abstract
Immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) targeting cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4), programmed cell death-1 (PD-1), and programmed cell death-1-ligand 1 (PD-L1) have become new treatment options for various malignancies. ICIs bind to immune-checkpoint inhibitory receptors or to the foregoing ligands and block inhibitory signals to release the brakes on the immune system, thereby enhancing immune anti-tumor responses. On the other hand, unlike conventional chemotherapies, ICIs can cause specific side effects, called immune-related adverse events (irAEs). These toxicities may affect various organs, including the lungs. ICI-related pneumonitis (ICI-pneumonitis) is not the most frequent adverse event, but it is serious and can be fatal. In this review, we summarize recent findings regarding ICI-pneumonitis, with a focus on potential pathogenesis and treatment.

Abstract
Immunotherapy that includes programmed cell death-1 (PD-1), programmed cell death- ligand 1 (PD-L1) and cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) inhibitors has revolutionized the therapeutic strategy in multiple malignancies. Although it has achieved significant breakthrough in advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients, immune-related adverse events (irAEs) including checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (CIP), are widely reported. As the particularly worrisome and potentially lethal form of irAEs, CIP should be attached more importance. Especially in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, the features of CIP may be more complicated on account of the overlapping respiratory signs compromised by primary tumor following immunotherapy. Herein, we included the previous relevant reports and comprehensively summarized the characteristics, diagnosis, and management of CIP. We also discussed the future direction of optimal steroid therapeutic schedule for patients with CIP in NSCLC based on the current evidence.

Immune-related adverse events associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors: An updated comprehensive disproportionality analysis of the FDA adverse event reporting system. Int Immunopharmacol 2021; 95:107498. [PMID: 33725634 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2021.107498] [Citation(s) in RCA: 49] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2020] [Revised: 02/06/2021] [Accepted: 02/08/2021] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUNDS Immune-related adverse events were reported in patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). However, with the increasing number of immune-related adverse events (irAEs), the differences of each immune checkpoint inhibitor regimen had not been fully assessed. METHODS Disproportionality analysis was used in data mining of the suspected adverse events after ICIs administration based on the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) from January 2004 to December 2019. The onset time and fatality proportion of ICI-associated irAEs were further evaluated. RESULTS A total of 32,441 reports of ICI-associated irAEs were gathered. This study showed that all ICI regimens generated lung toxicity and endocrine toxicity signals. Colitis, pneumonitis and interstitial lung disease were the most common ICI-associated irAEs. Five regimens including durvalumab monotherapy, ipilimumab monotherapy, ipilimumab plus nivolumab, ipilimumab plus pembrolizumab, durvalumab plus tremelimumab were associated with irAEs. Anti-PD-1 agents generated more signals of ocular toxicities than anti-PD-L1 agents, while anti-PD-L1 agents reported more signals of hematologic toxicities. Anti-CTLA-4 agents showed more signals of gastrointestinal toxicities compared with anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 agents. The highest fatality proportion of lung toxicities with durvalumab monotherapy, hematological toxicities with avelumab monotherapy, renal and skin toxicities with cemiplimab monotherapy were found. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrated that each ICI regimen had different characteristics of irAEs. Pembrolizumab had the highest fatality proportion. Ipilimumab plus pembrolizumab had the shortest median time to onset irAEs. Further studies were expected to assess whether there were clinically relevant differences exist among ICIs.

Abstract
Immune-related pneumonitis is an uncommon but potentially fatal immune-related adverse event in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients during treatment with anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). Underlying emphysema, interstitial lung disease (ILD), and previous radiation therapy for lung cancer might be factors precipitating immune-related pneumonitis. The incidence of immune-related pneumonitis is reported to be higher in those treated with PD-1 inhibitors than in those treated with anti-PD-L1 inhibitors. Early detection and diagnosis and appropriate management according to the severity are critical to improving the prognosis. The first-line physicians, including the primary responsible oncologists, family doctors, emergency physicians and NSCLC patients should be trained to identify and report symptoms of immune-related pneumonitis as early as possible. Multidisciplinary treatment teams involving clinicians (including ILD specialists and lung cancer specialists), radiologists and pathologists are recommended for the treatment of immune-related pneumonitis.
