Prognostic Nutrition Index as a Biomarker for Treatment Sensitivity to Chemotherapy and Nivolumab as the First-Line Treatment in Patients with Unresectable Advanced or Recurrent Gastric Cancer: A Multicenter Study.
Introduction: This multicenter study aimed to determine whether the pretreatment prognostic nutrition index (PNI) or a change in the index after two treatment courses could be a biomarker for predicting treatment sensitivity in patients with unresectable advanced or recurrent gastric cancer treated using chemotherapy and nivolumab as the first-line treatment.
Methods: This multicenter retrospective study with 104 patients was conducted at 12 institutions. PNI was calculated before treatment and after two courses of treatment in each case. We also focused on changes in PNI from the pretreatment value.
Results: After two courses of chemotherapy plus nivolumab treatment, the high PNI group had significantly better rates of overall survival (OS) (p = 0.0016) and time-to-treatment failure (p = 0.0060). Low PNI was an independent prognostic factor predicting both therapeutic sensitivity to chemotherapy plus nivolumab treatment and poorer OS. Furthermore, correlation with low pretreatment PNI transitioning to high after two courses of treatment was not noted in any patient in the progressive disease group (p = 0.0075).
Conclusions: PNI is a score composed of a patient's albumin level and lymphocyte count that can be easily assessed in daily clinical practice. Evaluating it is easy for each treatment; thus, when there is a focus on its transition, PNI could be a very powerful biomarker for predicting treatment sensitivity.
期刊介绍:
Although laboratory and clinical cancer research need to be closely linked, observations at the basic level often remain removed from medical applications. This journal works to accelerate the translation of experimental results into the clinic, and back again into the laboratory for further investigation. The fundamental purpose of this effort is to advance clinically-relevant knowledge of cancer, and improve the outcome of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of malignant disease. The journal publishes significant clinical studies from cancer programs around the world, along with important translational laboratory findings, mini-reviews (invited and submitted) and in-depth discussions of evolving and controversial topics in the oncology arena. A unique feature of the journal is a new section which focuses on rapid peer-review and subsequent publication of short reports of phase 1 and phase 2 clinical cancer trials, with a goal of insuring that high-quality clinical cancer research quickly enters the public domain, regardless of the trial’s ultimate conclusions regarding efficacy or toxicity.
