ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Measures of systemic inflammation (MSIs) have been developed and shown to help predict prognosis in patients with lung cancer. However, studies investigating the impact of MSIs on outcomes solely in cohorts of patients undergoing curative-intent resection of NSCLC are lacking. In the era of individualized therapies, targeting inflammatory pathways could represent a novel addition to the armamentarium of lung cancer treatment.METHODS:
A multicentre retrospective review of patients who underwent primary lung cancer resection between 2012 and 2018 was undertaken. MSIs assessed were neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), systemic immune inflammation index (SII), advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI), prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and haemoglobin albumin lymphocyte platelet (HALP) score. Cox regression analysis was performed to assess the impact of MSIs on overall survival.RESULTS:
A total of 5029 patients were included in the study. Overall 90-day mortality was 3.7% (n = 185). All MSIs were significantly associated with overall survival on univariable analysis. After multivariable Cox regression analyses, lower ALI (expressed as a continuous variable) (HR 1.000, 95% CI 1.000-1.000, P = .049) and ALI <366.43 (expressed as a dichotomous variable) (HR 1.362, 95% CI 1.137-1.631, P < .001) remained independently associated with reduced overall survival.CONCLUSIONS:
MSIs have emerged in this study as potentially important factors associated with survival following lung resection for NSCLC with curative intent. In particular, ALI has emerged as independently associated with long-term outcomes. The role of MSIs in the clinical management of patients with primary lung cancer requires further investigation.Palavras-chave
