Efficacy and safety analysis of anlotinib in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors for second-line and subsequent extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer.

Currently, there is a lack of effective second-line and subsequent treatments for patients with extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC), and the establishment of a standardized treatment protocol is still underway. Considering the potential synergistic therapeutic effects of anti-angiogenic drugs and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), combination therapy could be a viable option for treating lung cancer. This research concentrates on assessing the efficacy and safety of anlotinib in combination with ICIs for the treatment of ES-SCLC.

The analysis of the efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiotherapy with sequential immune checkpoint inhibitors in the management of oligoprogressive advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

Background: No standardized treatment strategy exists for managing oligoprogression during maintenance therapy in driver-negative advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Similarly, a uniform response to oligoprogression during maintenance therapy using immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has not been established. Consequently, our investigation focused on assessing the efficacy and safety of employing stereotactic total body radiotherapy in conjunction with ICIs to address oligoprogression in advanced NSCLC.
