RESUMO
AIM: This is a prospective study of cutaneous adverse events (CAEs) in lung cancer patients treated by programmed cell death-1(PD-1) inhibitors and programmed cell death-ligand 1(PD-L1) inhibitors-based single or combination therapy. PATIENTS & METHODS: It were included that lung cancer patients who developed CAEs from January 2019 to July 2021 after applying PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in our institution. RESULTS: A total of 107 patients with 112 CAEs were enrolled, of which 71 patients received PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors plus chemotherapy, 31 patients received PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors plus anti-angiogenic/targeted therapy, and 5 patients received PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors monotherapy. The median time to CAEs onset was 8.7w (0.3w-70.7w) for PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors plus chemotherapy, 10.1w (0.4w-103.0w) for PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors plus anti-angiogenic/targeted therapy, and 13.6w (0.7w-50.6w) for PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors monotherapy. The most common CAEs were reactive cutaneous capillary endothelial proliferation (RCCEP) (30.8%, 33/107), followed by eczematous (21.5%, 23/107) and pruritus only (15.9%, 17/107). 7 patients (6.5%, 7/107) had grade 3-4 CAE. CONCLUSION: Most CAEs are mild to moderate and easily controlled. Early diagnosis and intervention for CAEs are important.

Aim: To analyze the incidence and characteristics of cutaneous adverse events (CAEs) in non-small-cell lung cancer patients treated with PD-1 inhibitor-based therapy. Methods: A total of 150 non-small-cell lung cancer patients under PD-1 inhibitor-based therapy from February 2018 to September 2021 were included and were followed up with regularly. Results: Over one-half of patients (88/150; 58.7%) had CAEs. Reactive cutaneous capillary endothelial proliferation, maculopapular rash and pruritus were the most common CAEs. The incidences of CAEs were 50.0 (18/36), 67.0 (50/75) and 51.3% (20/39) with PD-1 inhibitor monotherapy, PD-1 inhibitor in combination with chemotherapy and PD-1 inhibitor in combination with antivascular/targeted therapy, respectively. Conclusion: CAEs occur frequently in PD-1 inhibitor-based therapy but are generally tolerable.
