ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been recognized as a poor prognostic indicator in various solid tumors.METHODS:
We retrospectively analyzed 530 patients with de novo DLBCL who were diagnosed from April 2002 to November 2017.RESULTS:
The median age of patients was 69 (range, 20-95) years, and 59% were male. The optimal cutoff for NLR was 5.2. NLR (5.2) was not associated with overall and progression free survival.CONCLUSION:
Our study failed to reveal the predictive value of NLR and demonstrated that the NCCN-IPI might be the most powerful predictor in DLBCL.
