Abstract

Background: Advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) is a formidable cancer with historically constrained systemic therapy alternatives. Immune checkpoint drugs that target programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) and programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) have surfaced as viable treatments. This revised systematic review and meta-analysis sought to assess the effectiveness of anti-PD-1/PD-L1–based therapy in advanced CSCC.

Methods: A thorough search of PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science was performed till August 12, 2025. Eligible studies comprised clinical trials and observational cohorts that reported the objective response rate (ORR) in patients with advanced CSCC treated with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 drugs. Pooled estimates were derived utilizing a random-effects model with limited maximum likelihood (REML) estimation. Heterogeneity was evaluated using Cochran’s Q, I², and τ². Subgroup analyses were conducted based on drug regimen, geographic location, and study design. Publication bias was assessed by funnel plots and Egger’s regression analysis.

Results: Forty-eight studies involving 4,172 patients met the inclusion criteria. The pooled ORR was 0.51 (95% CI, 0.46–0.55; z = 21.21, p < 0.001) with substantial heterogeneity (I² = 89.13%). Subgroup analyses showed ORRs ranging from 0.21 to 0.73 by drug regimen, with cemiplimab plus pembrolizumab achieving the highest response rates. Geographic location (p = 0.014, R² = 14.52%) and study design (p = 0.002, R² = 16.84%) were significantly associated with treatment effect, while drug type alone was not (p = 0.679). Egger’s test indicated small-study effects (p = 0.0174).

Conclusion: Anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy demonstrates meaningful clinical activity in advanced CSCC, achieving responses in approximately half of treated patients. Geographic and methodological factors contribute to outcome variability, underscoring the need for large, biomarker-driven trials to refine patient selection and optimize therapeutic benefit.
