Predictive Value of NLR and PLR in Driver-Gene-Negative Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Treated with PD-1/PD-L1 Inhibitors: A Single Institutional Cohort Study
Objective To investigate the predictive value of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) for the efficacy and prognosis of programmed cell death-1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors in driver-gene-negative advanced non-small-cell lung cancer...

description | Objective To investigate the predictive value of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) for the efficacy and prognosis of programmed cell death-1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors in driver-gene-negative advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods A retrospective analysis of 107 advanced NSCLC patients without gene mutations who received PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in our hospital from January 2020 to June 2022 was performed. NLR and PLR were collected before PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, the optimal cut-off values of NLR and PLR were determined according to the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and the effects of NLR and PLR on the efficacy of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in advanced NSCLC patients were analyzed. Results A total of 107 patients were included in this study. Receiver operating characteristic analysis showed that the optimal cut-off values of NLR and PLR were 3.825, 179, respectively. Kaplan–Meier curve showed that low baseline levels NLR and PLR were associated with an improvement in both progression-free survival (PFS) ( P < .001, < .001, respectively) and overall survival (OS) ( P = .009, .006, respectively). In first-line treatment and non-first-line treatment, low baseline levels NLR and PLR were associated with an improvement in PFS. In multivariate analysis, low baseline NLR and PLR showed a strong association with both better PFS ( P = .011, .027, respectively) and longer OS ( P = .042, .039, respectively). Conclusion Low baseline NLR and PLR levels are significantly associated with better response in advanced NSCLC patients treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, which may be indicators to predict the efficacy of immunotherapy in advanced NSCLC with driver-gene-negative. |
