Immune checkpoint inhibitors have become important paradigms for treating non-small cell lung cancer patients. Although several biomarkers indicating the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors have been reported, these markers sometimes are not accurate concerning the therapeutic effect. A 63-year-old man without a smoking history was diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma pathological stage IVB without an epidermal growth factor receptor mutation or anaplastic lymphoma kinase translocation, rearrangement of ROS1, or expression of programmed deathligand 1 (PD-L1). Although cytotoxic anticancer therapies were administered, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) gradually became elevated, and the lesions progressed. Atezolizumab was administered as third-line chemotherapy, after which CEA normalize... view moreĀ»
