Abstract Background PD-1 blockade plus chemotherapy has become the first-line standard of care for patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) without oncogenic drivers. Oncogenic-driven advanced NSCLC showed limited response to PD-1 blockade monotherapy or chemotherapy alone. Whether NSCLC patients with oncogenic drivers could benefit from PD-1 blockade plus chemotherapy remains undetermined. Methods Three hundred twelve NSCLC patients with at least one oncogenic driver alteration received PD-1 plus chemotherapy or each monotherapy were retrospectively identified. Objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were compared to evaluate the therapeutic outcomes differences among patients with different oncogenic drivers. Results One hundred sixty-two patients received PD-1 blockade plus chemotherapy, 57 received PD-1 blockade monotherapy and 93 received chemotherapy alone were included. Oncogenic driver mutations including KRAS (31.4%), EGFR (28.8%), HER2 (14.7%), BRAF (10.6%), RET (7.4%), and other mutations (7.1%) were identified. Patients with oncogenic drivers who received PD-1 blockade plus chemotherapy had significantly better outcomes compared to those received PD-1 blockade or chemotherapy alone (ORR: 51% vs. 18% vs. 25%, P
