A Novel Nomogram Based on Immune Scores for Predicting Survival in Patients with Early-Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND The role of immune parameters in the prognosis of lung cancer has attracted more and more attention. However, studies of the association between immune scores and prognosis of lung cancer are scarce. The goal of our research was to investigate the correlation between immune scores and overall survival (OS) of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). MATERIAL AND METHODS All data regarding patient immune and stromal scores, clinicopathological features, and survival was obtained from the TCGA datasets. Univariable and multivariable Cox regression analyses were utilized to recognize risk factors associated with OS. Afterward, a prognostic nomogram was constructed for predicting 3- and 5-year OS of stage I and II NSCLC patients. Calibration curves and receiver operating char
