Clinical outcomes of immune checkpoint blockades and the underlying immune escape mechanisms in squamous and adenocarcinoma NSCLC

We reviewed the clinical outcomes of immune checkpoint blockades and the underlying immune escape mechanisms in squamous and adenocarcinoma NSCLC, and prospected the strategies to improve the clinical efficacy of ICBs in NSCLC.


Abstract

Immune checkpoint blockades (ICBs) have changed the standard of care of squamous and adenocarcinoma non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Whereas detailed researches regarding ICBs in the two major histological subtypes are rare. In order to uncover the clinical efficacy differences between squamous and adenocarcinoma NSCLC and better understand the underlying immune‐regulatory mechanisms, we compared the survival benefits of ICBs between the two subtypes by revealing phase 3 randomized trials and attempted to uncover the immune‐regulatory discrepancy. Generally, compared with nonsquamous NSCLC, squamous NSCLC benefited more from ICBs in Keynote 024, CheckMate 026, CheckMate 227 and CheckMate 017 and similar in OAK, but less in Keynote 010 and PACIFIC. We revealed that the tumor mutation burden (TMB) level, the programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD‐L1) expression, tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in the tumor microenvironment (TME), chemokines, and oncogenic driver alterat ions within the two subtypes may contributed to the clinical outcomes of ICBs. We prospected that the combinations of ICBs with chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and antiangiogenic therapy could be promising strategies to re‐immunize the less immunogenic tumors and further enhance the efficacy of ICBs.
