The potential for long-term disease control with adebrelimab-based therapy even in biomarker-unselected populations is highlighted even in biomarker-unselected populations and the importance of combined modality strategies are highlighted.
Abstract
The integration of immune checkpoint inhibitors into first-line treatment has markedly improved outcomes for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). Adebrelimab, a PD-L1 inhibitor, demonstrated superior overall survival in the phase 3 CAPSTONE-1 trial. We present a detailed case of a 62-year-old male with ES-SCLC who achieved a progression-free survival (PFS) of 33 months following a multimodal regimen of adebrelimab plus chemotherapy, consolidative thoracic radiotherapy, and maintenance immunotherapy. Despite low PD-L1 expression (TPS<1%), the patient exhibited profound and durable tumor regression, with the primary mass shrinking from 146×158×217 mm to 51×21 mm. Treatment was well-tolerated with only grade 1–2 adverse events. This report underscores the potential for long-term disease control with adebrelimab-based therapy even in biomarker-unselected populations and highlights the importance of combined modality strategies.
Background Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is highly aggressive, and durable disease control after multiple treatment lines is uncommon. Anti-angiogenic therapy combined with PD-1 blockade may provide complementary antitumor effects through vascular and immune microenvironment remodeling. Case presentation We report a 64...

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have improved outcomes in selected patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC), particularly those with high programed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression. However, optimal dosing strategies balancing efficacy, toxicity, and cost remain unclear. We report the case of...

This real-world analysis shows poor outcomes in patients with progressing ES-SCLC, reflected by both short median PFS and duration of second-line treatment, along with high rates of treatment discontinuation due to progression, highlighting the urgent need for more effective and tolerable treatment options.

SMARCA4-deficient non-small cell lung cancer (SD-NSCLC) is a highly aggressive molecular subtype. This malignancy is often diagnosed at an advanced stage, carrying a dismal prognosis and also demonstrating poor responsiveness to traditional treatment. Beyond its primary site, the disease can exhibit unusual metastatic...

These findings support multidisciplinary care as the cornerstone of long-term survival in liver cancer as an integral component of immunomodulation, DC-CIK cell therapy remodels the tumor microenvironment to facilitate other treatments, making it a defining therapeutic decision for patients with advanced liver cancer.

Background Brain metastasis from gastric cancer carries a dismal prognosis, with median overall survival of only 3–6 months. Patients who progress on immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-containing regimens have limited salvage options. HER2-low expression (IHC 1+ or IHC 2+/FISH-negative), historically excluded from anti-...
