Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors for neoadjuvant treatment of bladder cancer, and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS Retrieved from PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, American Society of Clinical Oncology Meeting Library, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang database, etc., the randomized controlled trials (RCTs), non-RCT, case-control studies, cohort studies, etc. about PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors for neoadjuvant treatment of bladder cancer were collected from the inception to Jan 31st, 2023. After literature screening, data extraction and quality evaluation, RevMan 5.3 software was used to perform meta-analysis of single-group rates; sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis were conducted using Stata12 software. RESULTS A total of 25 studies were included in this discussion, involving 940 patients. The results of meta-analysis showed that the pathologic complete response (pCR) rate was 32% [OR=0.32, 95%CI (0.22, 0.45), P=0.006], downstaging rate was 52% [OR=0.52, 95%CI (0.45, 0.60), P=0.55], and the incidence of ≥grade 3 immune-related adverse events (irAEs) was 16% [OR=0.16, 95%CI (0.11, 0.22), P<0.000 01]. Subgroup analysis showed that the patients receiving PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors alone had a pCR rate of 25% and a incidence of Grade≥3 irAEs of 9%; the patients receiving combined immunotherapy had a pCR rate of 29% and a incidence of Grade≥3 irAEs of 28%; the patients receiving PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors combined with chemotherapy had a pCR rate of 43% and a incidence of Grade≥3 irAEs of 12%; PD-L1 positive patients had a pCR rate of 44%, and PD-L1 negative patients had a pCR rate of 25%. The results of the sensitivity analysis showed that the study was robust. The results of the publication bias analysis showed that there was no significant publication bias. CONCLUSIONS PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors are effective and safe for adjuvant treatment of bladder cancer.
