Abstract
Objective: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a devastating but universal class of lung carcinoma with an unfavorable prognosis. This paper mainly investigated the correlation between lung immune prognostic index (LIPI) score and combined treatment of immune checkpoint inhibitor and chemotherapy (CHT) in patients with advanced NSCLC.
Methods: Totally, 301 advanced NSCLC patients with programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression ≥1% were assigned into good LIPI group (N=113), intermediate LIPI group (N=101), and poor LIPI group (N=87) based on LIPI scoring system, followed by treatment of CHT plus programmed cell death-1 (PD-1)/PD-L1 inhibitor. The differences in clinical parameters between subgroups of NSCLC patients were analyzed by χ 2 test, 1-way analysis of variance, and Kruskal-Wallis H test. All patients were followed up until June 30, 2022, and objective response rate, disease control rate, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were recorded. The independent associations of LIPI score with PFS and OS were assessed via the Cox regression model.
Results: There were evident differences in clinical stage and lymphocyte among the 3 subgroups of NSCLC patients. The efficacy of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor combined with CHT was better in patients with good LIPI score, manifested by higher objective response rate and disease control rate. Moreover, LIPI score was an independent factor influencing PFS and OS in patients with advanced NSCLC, with longer PFS and OS in patients with good LIPI score.
Conclusion: LIPI score has a predictive value for combination therapy of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade and CHT in advanced NSCLC patients.
