ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the combined effect of anti-PD-1 inhibitor and nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab)-paclitaxel for refractory melanoma among Chinese patients.METHODS:
Data from January 2018 to March 2021 were retrospectively collected and analyzed. Sixty-four patients were eligible for analysis from a single Chinese cancer center.RESULTS:
The median follow-up was 16.0 months at data cutoff. The objective response rate (ORR) was 29.7%, and the disease control rate (DCR) was 67.2% in all patients. Treatment-naïve patients had significantly higher ORR than pretreated patients (42.9% vs 13.8%, p = 0.011). Cutaneous melanoma patients with NRAS gene mutation benefited more than non-mutated patients (DCR of 100% vs. 54.5%) (p = 0.030). The median progression-free survival (mPFS) of all patients was 5.2 months and the duration of response was 10.8 months. Median duration of disease control was 7.7 months. Prior treatment-naïve patients had significantly longer PFS than those who accepted prior treatments (7.2 vs. 5.1 months, p = 0.024). Patients with abnormally high LDH level had shorter mPFS (3.6 months vs. 6.6 months, p = 0.020). Median overall survival was not reached in this study. Most patients experienced adverse events (AEs), but only 17.2% of patients experienced grade 3 severe AEs. The most common AEs were alopecia (89.1%), neutropenia (18.8%), pruritus (15.6%), and arthralgia (14.1%). Some patients had immune related AEs (irAEs). No grade 4 or 5 AEs were observed. Patients with ≥ 3 AEs or with irAEs had longer mPFS (p < 0.05).CONCLUSION:
Nab-paclitaxel combined with PD-1 antibody is a well-tolerated and effective regimen for Chinese patients with refractory melanoma.Palavras-chave
