Background: Our goal was to organize the data from randomized controlled trials that evaluated first-line chemotherapy for chemo-naïve extensive disease small-cell lung cancer (ED-SCLC). Methods: The protocol following PRISMA methodology was submitted as PROSPERO 154049. We included individually randomized trials comparing two or more chemotherapy regimens as the first-line treatment for chemo-naïve ED-SCLC regardless of the age, sex, performance status, co-morbidities, and organ functions written in the English language since 2000. Molecular targeted agents and immune checkpoint inhibitors were considered chemotherapy along with cytotoxic medications. We pooled the logarithm of hazard ratio (HR) and its standard error using the frequentist weighted least squares approach random-model network meta-analysis. Results: A total of 46 eligible trials that involved 11,987 patients were included. The primary endpoint, HR of overall survival (OS, HRos) of the selected comparisons was as follows: carboplatin+amrubicin (HRos 0.56, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.33–0.96), carboplatin+etoposide+atezolizumab (HRos 0.70, 95% CI 0.53–0.92), and carboplatin+irinotecan (HRos 0.73, 95% CI 0.58–0.91) were compared with carboplatin+etoposide. The carboplatin+etoposide+atezolizumab regimen was compared with carboplatin+irinotecan (HRos 0.97, 95% CI 0.68–1.37) and cisplatin+irinotecan regimen (HRos 0.87, 95% CI 0.58–1.31). “Selective carboplatin or cisplatin (CBDCA/CDDP)”+etoposide+durvalumab was compared with CBDCA/CDDP+etoposide (HRos 0.73, 95% CI 0.59–0.91). Platinum+etoposide+durvalumab was compared with platinum+irinotecan (HRos 0.88, 95% CI 0.67–1.15). Cumulative meta-analysis suggested that platinum+irinotecan was associated with better OS than platinum+etoposide as of 2010 through 40 out of 46 trials in our review that used platinum+etoposide as a reference regimen. Conclusion: Patients treated with carboplatin+amrubicin, carboplatin+etoposide+atezolizumab, CBDCA/CDDP+etoposide+durvalumab, and platinum+irinotecan showed better HRos than those treated with platinum+etoposide, one of the standard regimens.

e19039 Background: The validity of adapting carboplatin/paclitaxel (CbP) as a reference arm in randomized trials of first-line chemotherapy for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer has not been fully evaluated. Methods: We performed a meta- analysis on trials identified through a literature search. The analysis included randomized trials comparing CbP with cisplatin-based third- generation (3G) regimens. Results: Of 160 articles screened, seven randomized trials were eligible for the analysis. The pooled hazard ratio (HR) for overall survival showed that CbP was not an inferior regimen to cisplatin-based 3G regimens (HR=1.04; 95% confidence interval, 0.96–1.13; p=0.296). On focusing on 3G agents other than vinorelbine, we observed a marginally significant improvement in survival with cisplatin-based regimens (HR=1.08; 95% confidence interval, 0.99–1.18; p=0.080). CbP generally involved a higher risk of thrombocytopenia and peripheral neuropathy but a lower risk of anemia, nausea, and toxic deaths. Conclusions: There is no evidence that CbP was significantly inferior to cisplatin-based 3G regimens in terms of efficacy. However, since CbP was less inclined to result in better survival, the preferred use of CbP as a reference arm in randomized trials instead of cisplatin-based 3G regimens may depend on the purpose of the trial. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
