ABSTRACT

Objective:To study the effectiveness and safety of programmed cell death receptor 1(PD-1) monoclonal antibody combined with chemotherapy in the preoperative neoadjuvant treatment of stage ⅢA non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods:A total of 65 patients with stage ⅢA NSCLC who underwent preoperative neoadjuvant treatment in our hospital from January 2019 to October 2020 were selected. According to the preoperative neoadjuvant treatment plan, they were divided into control group(31 cases) and observation group(34 cases). Patients in the control group were treated with albumin-bound paclitaxel and cisplatin for injection, and the patients in the observation group were treated with immunotherapy(carrelizumab/sintilizumab) on the basis of the control group, all underwent 2 cycles of preoperative neoadjuvant treatment. Compared the clinical efficacy of imaging, T lymphocyte subsets, drug side effects, surgical resection rate, major pathological remission(MPR), complete pathological remission(pCR) and postoperative complications of the two groups of patients, and analyzed the factors those affected MPR.Results:The clinical efficacy of PR and ORR of imaging in the observation group was better than that of the control group( P<0.05). The positive rate of CD3 + cells, the positive rate of CD4 + cells, the positive rate of CD8 + cells and the ratio of CD4 + /CD8 + cells in the observation group after treatment were higher than those in the control group( P<0.05). The drug toxicity of the observation group was higher than that of the control group in RCCEP/rash, abnormal thyroid function, and abnormal myocardial enzymes( P<0.05). Compared among the observation group(carrelizumab group/sintilizumab group), the toxicity of carrelizumab group was higher than that of sintilizumab group in RCCEP/skin rash, bone marrow suppression and abnormal myocardial enzymes( P<0.05). The MPR and pCR of the observation group were higher than those of the control group( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in surgical resection rate, surgical methods and postoperative complications between the two groups( P>0.05). The results of univariate analysis showed that ECOG score, pathological type, neoadjuvant treatment plan were related to MPR( P<0.05). The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that ECOG score and neoadjuvant treatment plan were independent risk factors affecting MPR( P<0.05). Conclusion:PD-1 monoclonal antibody combined with chemotherapy can enable patients to obtain better MPR and pCR, and can improve the immune function of patients. But the side effects caused by immunotherapy drugs are worthy of attention, and the side effects are different between different immune drugs.
