Title:

Complex markers of survival from pembrolizumab: the potential predictive role of tumor mutational burden (TMB) and KRAS

Published date:
11/09/2020
Excerpt:
We identified a cohort of metastatic EGFR/ALK wild type NSCLC patients...Among patients who received pembrolizumab monotherapy, there was a trend toward increased risk of death in those with STK11 mutations [HR=17.54; CI=0.35–1,000; p=0.15].

Title:

Association of STK11/LKB1 mutations with primary resistance to PD-1/PD-L1 axis blockade in PD-L1 positive non-squamous NSCLC.

Excerpt:
66 patients with non-squamous NSCLC treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors at MDACC (61% pembrolizumab, 24% nivolumab, 8% atezolizumab, 5% durvalumab/tremelimumab) with available STK11/LKB1 NGS-based genomic profiling and positive tumor cell PD-L1 expression...STK11/LKB1 genomic alterations are associated with de novo resistance to PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors even among PD-L1-positive non-squamous NSCLC patients, suggesting that their effect is at least partially independent of PD-L1 expression.

Title:

Metformin Combining PD-1 Inhibitor Enhanced Anti-Tumor Efficacy in STK11 Mutant Lung Cancer Through AXIN-1-Dependent Inhibition of STING Ubiquitination

Published date:
02/23/2022
Excerpt:
CONTRADICTORY EVIDENCE: We studied the impact of metformin on ICI efficacy in STK11 mutant NSCLC in vitro and in vivo using colony formation assay....In NOD-SCID xenografts, metformin in combination with PD-1 inhibitor pembrolizumab effectively decreased tumor growth and increased infiltration of CD8+ T cells.
