ZUSAMMENFASSUNG

Die Identifikation Biomarker-stratifizierter Behandlungen hat das Überleben eines relevanten Anteils an Patient*innen mit metastasiertem Lungenkrebs in den letzten Jahren teils erheblich verbessert. Hierzu zählen Treibermutationen und bei Treiber-negativen Tumoren die Expression des „programmed death ligand 1“ (PD-L1) hinsichtlich des Ansprechens auf eine Therapie mit Checkpoint-Inhibitoren. Aufgrund der beim Lungenkarzinom bestehenden Korrelation zwischen PD-L1-Expression und Behandlungseffektivität kommt insbesondere bei geringer oder fehlender Expression der zusätzlich applizierten Chemotherapie eine wichtige Rolle zu. Derzeitig erhalten Patient*innen im Stadium IV mit einer PD-L1-Expression < 50 % auf den Tumorzellen eine Chemoimmuntherapie zur Erstlinienbehandlung. Hierzu stehen Pemetrexed- und Taxan-basierte Regime zur Auswahl. In retrospektiven Analysen zeigte sich bei für den thyroidalen Transkriptionsfaktor 1 (TTF-1)-negativen Patient*in ein im Vergleich zu Pemetrexed-basierter Therapie verbessertes Überleben bei Verwendung Taxan-haltiger Regime. Diese Beobachtung wird aktuell prospektiv randomisiert untersucht.

ABSTRACT

The identification of biomarker-adjusted treatments has revolutionized the treatment landscape of metastatic lung cancer and improved survival for a relevant share of patients with actionable genomic alterations and those benefiting from checkpoint inhibitors (CPI). Given a clear correlation between the expression of “programmed death ligand 1” (PD-L1) and treatment efficacy of CPI, immunochemotherapy is used in patients with a PD-L1 expression < 50 %. The lower the PD-L1 expression, the more important is the chemotherapy backbone. For lung adenocarcinoma, there is currently a choice between pemetrexed- and taxane-based regimens. Retrospective data suggested superior survival using taxane-based treatment for patients negative for “thyroid transcription factor 1”. A prospective randomized clinical trial is underway to verify this hypothesis.
