Overview

The goal of this observational study is to investigate the risk factors of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor-associated liver injury, to construct a prediction model for the occurrence of liver injury. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Exploring risk factors for liver injury.
  • Constructing a Predictive Model for the Occurrence of Liver Injury in PD-1/PD-L1 Inhibitor-Related Liver Injury.
  • Improving immunotherapy protocols for lung cancer patients.

Description

PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors have achieved surprising results in lung cancer treatment and have been approved by the FDA for the treatment of different types of lung cancer. Their overall toxicity is lower than that of standard chemotherapy, but a number of immune-related adverse events have been reported clinically. Liver injury is one of the leading causes of death from adverse events due to PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. The occurrence of immune-related liver damage has an important impact on the tumor treatment and prognosis of patients. Most of the current domestic and international studies focus on the overall description and study of PD-1/PD-L1 antibody-related adverse events, and there is no definitive description of the risk factors for the development of immune-related liver injury in lung cancer patients. The aim of this project is to review the clinical data of lung cancer patients treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors from 2020.01 to 2024.06, to investigate the risk factors of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor-associated liver injury, to construct a prediction model for the occurrence of liver injury, and to take measures to prevent the occurrence of fatal immune liver injury, which is of great significance to the immunotherapy of clinical tumor patients. It is of great significance to the immunotherapy of clinical tumor patients.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Lung cancer patients who have received at least one and more PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor treatments;
  2. Gender is not limited, age 18-80 years old

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
