IntroductionRadiotherapy may augment systemic antitumor responses to immunotherapy. We did a retrospective study to infer whether radiotherapy improves outcomes to immunotherapy in patients with stage III and IV non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).MethodsThis retrospective study conducted at Enze Medical Center enrolled 259 patients with histopathology confirmed NSCLC from December 2018 to December 31, 2021. All were treated with Sintilimab, some patients received radiotherapy at an appropriate time point. Radiation type includes conventional radiotherapy and stereotactic body radiotherapy. The progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were the primary endpoint.ResultsA retrospective analysis was performed on 259 patients, of whom 140 had been treated with immunotherapy lonely and 119 had been remedied with immunotherapy plus radiotherapy. Baseline variables were well balanced between the two groups, including gender, age, smoking status, TNM staging, number of metastases, ECOG score, pathological type and lines of previous systemic therapy. The median PFS in the immunotherapy alone group was 5.00 months (95%CI 4.38-5.62) versus immunotherapy plus radiotherapy was 9.00 months (5.95-12.05; p |
