PD-L1 expression ≥50% was observed in 39.1% of LTR patients, higher than in non-LTR patients (21.7%). After propensity score matching, Cox univariable analysis revealed pathological type (hazard ratio [HR] 0.563; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.391-0.811; P = .002), bone metastasis (HR 1.820; 95% CI: 1.278-2.590; P = .001), and liver metastasis (HR 2.220; 95% CI: 1.291-3.817; P = .004) as significant predictors of LTR.

However, the clinical characteristics, prognosis, and optimal treatment strategies for long-term responders (LTR) to first-line programmed cell death protein-1/programmed cell death ligand-1 inhibitors remain unclear, necessitating further investigation. What this study adds - This study identifies nonsquamous cell carcinoma, absence of bone metastasis, and absence of liver metastasis as significant predictors of LTR in NSCLC patients. LTR patients exhibit a higher proportion of programmed cell death ligand-1 expression (≥50%). Additionally, Pembrolizumab-chemotherapy shows superior overall survival outcomes for LTR with lung squamous cell carcinoma compared to Sintilimab-chemotherapy.

What this study adds  This study provides the first comprehensive synthesis of evidence, identifying significant risk factors for post-stroke epilepsy and seizures among stroke survivors.
