L’immunothérapie dans le cancer bronchique non à petites cellules métastatique : différents patients, différentes options

Plusieurs études montrent que l’immunothérapie, en monothérapie ou en association avec la chimiothérapie, peut améliorer la survie globale des patients atteints de cancer bronchique non à petites cellules (CBNPC) métastatique. Divers groupes de patients atteints de CBNPC métastatique peuvent bénéficier de ce traitement innovant, indépendamment de l’expression de PD-L1, des métastases cérébrales, des mutations, des maladies auto-immunes et de l’âge.1,2,3


CBNPC = cancer bronchique non à petites cellules; PD-L1 TPS = programmed death-ligand 1 tumor proportion score

* Ce cas est celui d’un patient fictif et n’a qu’un but illustratif
