ABSTRACT: Background
Immune function, nutrition status, and inflammation influence tumor initiation and progression. This was a retrospective multicenter cohort study that investigated the prognostic value and clinical relevance of immune-, inflammatory-, and nutritional-related biomarkers to develop a novel prognostic immune-inflammatory-nutritional score (PIIN score) for patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC).Methods
The clinical data of 571 patients (406 in the training set and 165 in the validation set) were collected from four large hepato-pancreatico-biliary centers of patients with ICC who underwent surgical resection between January 2011 and September 2017.
