Abstract

Background: The aims of our study were to investigate the toxicity of Pembrolizumab monotherapy in advanced - stage non - small cell lung cancer patients.

Methods: Clinical trial, retrospective study. From October 2017 to June 2020, we enrolled 28 advanced - stage non-small cell lung cancer patients at National Cancer hospital. All patients received pembrolizumab monotherapy as first line or later line after chemotherapy. Toxicity was determined.

Results: Toxicities appearred in 39,3% patients, most were tolerable. Immune - related adverse events (irAEs) were 10,7%, most common irAEs were hyperthyroidism (7,1%), followed by hypothyroidism (3,6%). 10,7% patients experienced AEs in hematologic system, included anemia (7,1%), neutropenia (3,6%). 21,4% patients experienced extra-hematological toxicities, 10,7% hypertransaminasemia, 3,6% hyperglycemia, 3,6% hypercreatininemie.

Conclusions: Pembrolizumab monotherapy using in advanced - stage non - small cell lung cancer is tolerable with small rate of irAEs and toxicities in other systems.
