Clinical efficacy of Yiqi Yangyin Jiedu Formula combined with tislelizumab in treatment of driver‑gene‑negative advanced NSCLC and its impact on peripheral immune indicators
To observe the synergistic effect of Yiqi Yangyin Jiedu Formula (YYJF) combined with a programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) inhibitor in the treatment of driver-gene-negative advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and to explore the peripheral immune regulation targets that contribute to its efficacy.
Methods
2
Eighty-four patients with driver-gene-negative advanced NSCLC of qi-yin dual deficiency syndrome, who were receiving PD-1 inhibitor treatment for the first time, were stratified and randomized into two groups (treatment group with 42 patients, and control group with 42 patients). In the treatment group, a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment was received, which included YYJF combined with the regimen containing tislelizumab, while the control group received only the Western medicine regimen containing tislelizumab. The primary endpoint was disease control rate (DCR), and secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) clinical symptom scores, and TCM syndrome efficacy. Peripheral immune indicators, including regulatory T cells (Treg) and 12 soluble immune checkpoint proteins [notably soluble transforming growth factor-β (sTGF-β), soluble cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (sCTLA-4), soluble programmed death ligand 1 (sPD-L1), soluble T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-containing molecule-3 (sTIM-3), and soluble galectin-9 (sGal-9)], were also measured.
Results
2
①Finally, data from 81 patients were analyzed statistically, with 41 cases in the treatment group and 40 cases in the control group. ②The DCR was higher in the treatment group than that in the control group (
P
<
0.05), and the TCM syndrome efficacy was superior to that of the control group (
P
<
0.05). Improvements in symptoms such as fatigue, spontaneous sweating, night sweating, and feverish sensation in the palms, soles, and chest were significantly better in the treatment group (
P
<
0.05). ③The median PFS was 9.2 months in the treatment group and 6.5 months in the control group, showing a statistically significant difference (
P
<
0.05). Compared to the Western medicine-only group, the TCM and Western medicine combined treatment lowered the risk of disease
progression by 44.7% [
HR
=0.553, 95%
CI
(0.317, 0.964),
P
=0.037]. ④After two courses of treatment, CD8
+
T cell expression levels increased (
P
<
0.05), and Treg, sTGF-β, sCTLA-4, sPD-L1, sTIM-3, and sGal-9 expression levels decreased (
P
<
0.05) within the treatment group, while no significant changes were observed in the control group. Intergroup comparisons after two courses showed significant differences in the expression levels of CD8
+
T cells, Treg, sTGF-β, sCTLA-4, sPD-L1, and sGal-9 between the two groups (
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion
2
The combination of YYJF and tislelizumab-containing regimen can improve the DCR and prolong PFS in patients with driver-gene-negative advanced NSCLC. The combined treatment also ameliorates the qi-yin dual deficiency syndrome. The mechanism may be related to downregulating the expression levels of Treg cells, sTGF-β, sCTLA-4, sPD-L1, and sGal-9 in peripheral blood, increasing the proportion of CD8
+
T cells, thereby improving the peripheral immune environment in patients.
