The Modified Glasgow Prognostic Score and Prognostic Nutritional Index as Prognostic Markers in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer Treated With Eribulin.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

To examine the role of the Modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) and Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) as prognostic markers for patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC).

Patients and methods

We investigated the associations of clinico-pathological factors with time-to-treatment failure (TTF) and overall survival (OS) in 110 patients with MBC treated with eribulin.

Results

C-Reactive protein >1 mg/dl, albumin <3.5 g/dl, mGPS=2, and PNI <40 were significant predictors of shorter TTF in univariate analyses. PNI <40 remained a significant and independent predictor of shorter TTF in multivariate analyses. De novo tumor, visceral metastases, C-reactive protein >1 mg/dl, albumin <3.5 g/dl, mGPS=2, and PNI <40 were significant predictors of poor OS at the univari
