[Impact of neoadjuvant immunotherapy on pulmonary function and perioperative outcomes in patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer].

Objective: To explore the effect of neoadjuvant immunotherapy on pulmonary function and the efficacy in patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer. Methods: Data of 30 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who received neoadjuvant immunotherapy before surgery in the Chest Hospital of Shanghai Jiaotong University from March 2018 to September 2021 were retrospectively collect. The efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant immunotherapy in the perioperative period and changes in pulmonary function of patients before and after neoadjuvant treatment were valuated. Results: The patients were all-male with age of (61±8)years old, The major pathological response (MPR) rate of patients receiving neoadjuvant immunotherapy was 43%(13 cases), the pathologic complete response (pCR) rate was 37% (11 cases), disease control rate (DCR) was 97% (29 cases), objective response rate (ORR) was 67% (20 cases). The forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) after treatment was (2.59±0.63) L, and the ratio of FEV1 to the predicted value (FEV1%pred) was 85.27%±15.86%, which were significantly higher than those before treatment [(2.48±0.59)L, 81.73%±15.94%, respectively] (P=0.013, 0.022, respectively). Forced vital capacity (FVC) after treatment was (3.59±0.77) L, which was also significantly higher than before [(3.47±0.76) L,P=0.036]; while there were no statistical difference in FEV1/FVC and FVC accounted for the proportion of predicted values (FVC%pred) between before and after treatment (P=0.084, 0.344, respectively). The ratio of carbon monoxide dispersion (DLCO) to the predicted value (DLCO%pred) decreased from 83.61%±13.10% to 78.69%±13.85% after treatment (P=0.023). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications between the DLCO%pred decreased group and the non-decreased group (3/18 vs 0/6; P=0.546). Conclusions: Neoadjuvant immunotherapy can increase the rate of MPR and PCR, significantly increase FEV1 and FEV1%pred, but also lead to a decrease in DLCO%pred; neoadjuvant immunotherapy does not increase the incidence of postoperative complications.
