[The outcome and safety of neoadjuvant PD-1 blockade plus chemotherapy in stage Ⅱ~Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancer].
Objective: To explore the safety and therapeutic effect of programmed death 1 (PD-1) antibody combined with chemotherapy as a neoadjuvant therapy for patients with stage Ⅱ to Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: Thirteen patients, who had been diagnosed as stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ NSCLC and received PD-1 inhibitor plus chemotherapy as a neoadjuvant treatment in National Cancer Center/Cancer Hospital were recruited. The patients received consecutive neoadjuvant chemotherapy for 21 days as a cycle and the therapeutic efficacy was evaluated after two cycles. ⋯ The safety and tolerability of perioperative period of patients underwent resection were promising. Conclusions: Immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy as a neoadjuvant treatment is an effective, low-toxicity treatment manner, which has perioperative safety and high rate of MPR for patients with resectable NSCLC. It is a promising treatment option for patients with stage Ⅱ to Ⅲ NSCLC.

Comparative Study[Comparison of short-term clinical outcome between laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy and open distal pancreatectomy].
Objective: To compare the short-term clinical effect between laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP) and open distal pancreatectomy (ODP). Methods: We performed a retrospective study on 161 patients who underwent pancreatectomy between September 2017 to December 2018 in the Department of Pancreatic and Gastric Surgery, Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. According to the mode of operation, the patients were divided into the LDP group (n=43) and the ODP group (n=118). ⋯ The preoperative and postoperative inflammatory indexes between these two groups were not statistically different (P>0.05). Conclusions: Compared with ODP, LDP has the advantages of less intraoperative blood loss, faster postoperative recovery, shorter postoperative hospital stays, without increased postoperative complications and prolonged operation time. LDP is a safe and feasible operation method, and its short-term clinical effect is better than that of ODP.
