Recent success and limitations of immune checkpoint inhibitors for cancer: a lesson from melanoma

Ottaviano, Margaret, De Placido, Sabino, Ascierto, Paolo Antonio·2019·Virchows Archiv

Abstract

Several researches have been carried over the last few decades to understand of how cancer evades the immune system and thus to identify therapies that could directly act on patient's immune system in the way of restore or induce a response to cancer. As a consequence, "cancer immunotherapy" is conquering predominantly the modern scenario of the fight against cancer. The recent clinical success of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has created an entire new class of anti-cancer drugs and restored interest in the field of immuno-oncology, leading to regulatory approvals of several agents for the treatment of a variety of malignancies. The first to be approved in 2011 was the anti-CTLA-4 antibody ipilimumab for the treatment of unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Subsequently, the anti-PD-1s, nivolumab and pembrolizumab, received regulatory approvals for the treatment of melanoma and several other cancers. More recently, three anti-PD-L1 antibodies have received approval: atezolizumab and durvalumab for locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma and metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and avelumab for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma and metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma. This review, starting from the results of melanoma trials, highlights in turn different ICIs and data for different indications in several malignancies are included under each drug class.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
