Gustave Roussy Immune Score as a Novel Prognostic Scoring System for Colorectal Cancer Patients: A Propensity Score Matching Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

The Gustave Roussy Immune Score (GRIm-Score) was originally designed to select cancer patients for immunotherapy, and later was reported to be a novel prognostic scoring system in lung cancer and esophageal cancer. This study was aimed to determine the prognostic role and predictive performance of GRIm-Score in colorectal cancer (CRC) CRC patients.

Methods

We conducted a single-institution study of 1,579 adult CRC patients receiving surgical removal, and those patients were divided into low GRIm-Score group (scores 0, 1) and high GRIm-Score group (scores 2, 3). Propensity score matching (PSM) was executed to balance the potential confounding factors between the two groups. Survival and time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (Td-ROC) analyses were applied to depict the prognostic role and predictive significance of GRIm-Score in CRC patients.

Results

There were 200 cases CRC patients in high GRIm-Score group and 1,379 cases in low GRIm-Score group. CRC patients with high GRIm-Score correspond with higher level of CEA, CA125, and inflammatory indexes, such as NLR, PLR, SII, PNI, and ALRI. Correlation analysis exhibited that GRIm-Score correlated well with the established inflammatory indexes. Survival analysis revealed that CRC patients in high GRIm-Score group showed worse overall survival (OS, P <0.0001) and disease-free survival (DFS, P <0.0001) compared with those in low GRIm-Score group. Results from multivariate Cox regression implicated that high GRIm-Score was not only a potent prognostic index for unfavorable OS (HR = 1.622, 95%CI: 1.118-2.355, P = 0.0109), but also a potent risk factor for worse DFS (HR = 1.743, 95%CI: 1.188-2.558, P = 0.0045). Td-ROC analysis demonstrated that GRIm-Score exhibited the superior discriminatory power in the prediction of OS and DFS when compared to SII, PNI, and ALRI. Such strong associations between high levels of preoperative GRIm-Score and unfavorable survival outcomes remained robust after PSM analysis.

Conclusion

GRIm-Score, a novel inflammatory and nutritional risk scoring system, is a potent prognostic index in CRC patients receiving surgical removal. GRIm-Score can be used as an effective and simplified risk stratification tool for postoperative survival prediction of CRC patients.

Project description:Background: There is not yet an effective marker in predicting the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. The Gustave Roussy Immune Score (GRIm-Score) based on three objective variables, namely, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), serum albumin level (ALB), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), was developed as feasible prognostic indication in lung cancer patients receiving ICIs therapies. Our study aimed to adapt the GRIm-Score (HCC-GRIm-Score) in HCC patients who received ICIs therapies and thus improving the predictive ability. Methods: From January 2018 to September 2020, 261 patients who received ICIs therapy were retrospectively included and divided into training and validation groups. After determining the factors for HCC-GRIm-Score by multivariable analysis from training group, the optimized HCC-GRIm-Score was validated and compared to the original GRIm-Score and the Barcelona clinic liver cancer (BCLC) staging system. Results: One hundred sixty-one and 80 patients were assigned into the training and validation groups, respectively. Two more factors, aspartate transaminase-to-alanine transaminase ratio [hazard ratio (HR), 1.51; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.94-2.42] and total bilirubin (HR, 1.76; 95% CI, 1.07-2.88), were identified as independent prognostic factors for overall survival (OS) and integrated in the HCC-GRIm-Score system according to the multivariable analysis. A risk score based on the HCC-GRIm-Score indicated that patients presenting high score (>2) suffered from significantly shorter median OS of 10.3 months compared to those with a low score (not reached; HR, 2.99; 95% CI, 1.89-4.75; p < 0.001). In the validation group of 80 patients, the patients presenting a high score showed an inferior OS (HR 5.62, 95% CI, 1.25-25.24; p = 0.024). HCC-GRIm-Score had the highest area under curve of 0.719 (95% CI, 0.661-0.773) compared to original GRIm-Score and BCLC staging system. Conclusion: The present study confirmed that the modified HCC-GRIm-Score system provided superior predictive ability in identifying the HCC patients potentially benefit from ICIs therapies, compared to the original GRIm-Score and the BCLC staging system.

Project description:The platelet-to-albumin ratio (PAR) was developed to evaluate inflammatory and nutritional status among patients. The primary goal of the current study was to gain insight into the prognostic role of PAR in critically ill patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). The secondary aim was to develop and verify a clinical model including PAR for the prediction of 28-day mortality. This observational, multicenter study used data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC) IV, e-ICU databases, and Union cohort. Data from 776 critically ill patients with CRC were from the e-ICU database, 219 from the MIMC-IV database, and 135 from the Wuhan Union Hospital. Propensity score matching (PSM) analysis, along with inverse probability treatment weighting, was used to control the influence of confounding factors. Support vector machine (SVM) and LASSO Cox models were then applied to identify significant metrics associated with 28-day mortality in the test cohort. Receiver operating curve (ROC) analysis, along with sensitivity and specificity, was measured to assess the predictive performances of PAR and the survival nomogram. The threshold value for PAR was 8.6, and patients with high PAR (≥8.6) experienced higher 28-day mortality compared to those with low PAR (<8.6). ROC curve analyses revealed that the discriminative ability of PAR was better than platelet count and albumin alone. LASSO Cox regression along with SVM identified six significant metrics associated with 28-day mortality in critically ill patients with CRC, including PAR. The C-index of the critically ill CRC nomogram was 0.802 (0.744-0.859) in the e-ICU training cohort, 0.839 (0.779-0.899) in the e-ICU validation cohort, 0.787 (0.695-0.879) in the MIMIC-IV cohort, and 0.767 (0.703-0.831) in the Union cohort. PAR is a simple score that combines inflammatory and nutritional status. PAR was a reliable index to predict short-term survival outcome of critically ill patients with CRC. Moreover, a clinical nomogram incorporating PAR exhibited satisfactory performance for predicting 28-day mortality of critically ill patients with CRC.
