Prognostic Value of the Lung Immune Prognostic Index May Differ in Patients Treated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Monotherapy or Combined With Chemotherapy for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Lung immune prognostic index (LIPI) status was recently developed to predict responses to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatments. However, it is unclear whether LIPI is a prognostic index for both patients treated with ICI monotherapy and patients treated with ICIs combined with chemotherapy (ICIs CC).

Methods

This retrospective study established the patterns of LIPI in Chinese patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Lung immune prognostic index based on the derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio greater than 3 and lactate dehydrogenase greater than the upper limit of normal was developed to characterize good, intermediate, or poor LIPI status. Associations between LIPI status and progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were anal
