Abstract: In recent years,great progress has been made in the treatment of metastatic or locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer,especially for patients who have progressed after first-line therapy or treatment.Improving efficacy through combination therapy has become the main direction in this field,and this exploration is particularly urgent for patients who do not have drive gene mutations or are ineffective against targeted therapy.Evidence that pro-angiogenic factors have immunosuppressive activity led researchers to evaluate potential synergistic effects of anti-angiogenic drugs in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors in advanced non-small cell lung cancer.This article reviews the theoretical basis and clinical research of anti-angiogenic drugs combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors in the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

Key words: Non-small cell lung cancer, Anti-angiogenic therapy, Immune checkpoint inhibitors
