Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have limited efficacy in proficient mismatch repair/microsatellite stable (pMMR/MSS) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).
However, selected patients with specific metastatic patterns may derive benefit. Patients with chemorefractory pMMR/MSS mCRC treated with ICI-based regimens were retrospectively identified. A comparison cohort treated with trifluridine/tipiracil±bevacizumab, regorafenib, or fruquintinib as standard of care (SOC) was generated through 1:1 propensity score matching by age, sex, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS), liver metastases (present/absent), and RAS/BRAF status. Overall survival (OS) was compared using Cox regression.
A total of 354 patients treated with ICIs and 354 treated with SOC were matched. Median age was 55 years, 52% male, 32% ECOG PS 0, 30% right-sided, and 69% RAS mutated in both groups, while 61% and 60% had liver metastases, respectively. Median OS (mOS) was 10.8 months with ICIs and 9.0 months with SOC (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.64 to 0.92, p=0.004). In patients without liver metastases, mOS was longer with ICIs than SOC (19.1 vs 13.2 months, HR 0.59, 95% CI 0.43 to 0.80, p
