Lung cancer has the highest incidence rate and mortality in China, even in the world, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for about 85%. The growth and metastasis of tumor depend on the generation of blood vessels, and anti-angiogenic therapy is playing an increasingly important role, however, no significant improvement was observed in the underwent anti-angiogenic agents used for patients alone. In recent years, the application of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) has significantly improved the prognosis of some lung cancer patients, however, the objective response rate of patients receiving ICI alone is low. While anti-angiogenic agents and ICI both regulate the tumor immune microenvironment and have a potential synergistic mechanism, showing a bright prospect in the combined application of anti-tumor therapy. In this review, we focused on the research and application of anti-angiogenic agents in combination with ICI in advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
【中文题目：抗血管生成药物联合免疫检查点抑制剂 治疗晚期非小细胞肺癌的研究进展】 【中文摘要：肺癌是中国乃至全世界发病率和死亡率最高的癌种，其中非小细胞肺癌（non-small cell lung cancer, NSCLC）约占85%。肿瘤的生长和转移依赖于肿瘤新生血管的形成，抗血管生成治疗的地位日益显著，但仅接受抗血管生成单药治疗无法使患者预后明显改善。近年来，免疫检查点抑制剂（immune checkpoint inhibitor, ICI）的应用显著地改善了部分肺癌患者的预后，但接受ICI单药治疗人群的缓解率较低，而抗血管生成药物和免疫检查点抑制剂均能调节肿瘤微环境、有潜在协同作用机制，联合应用于抗肿瘤治疗有较好前景。本文将就抗血管生成药物联合免疫检查点抑制剂在晚期NSCLC中的研究及应用进行综述。 】 【中文关键词：肺肿瘤；抗血管生成药物；免疫检查点抑制剂；肿瘤免疫微环境】.
