Abstract:
AIM:To investigate the relationship between the dynamic changes of Lymphocyte-to-monocytes ratios(LMR)before PD-1 inhibitor treat-ment and the efficacy and prognosis of PD-1 inhibi-tor treatment in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).METHODS:The clinical case data of 83 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer admitted to the Cancer Hospital of Wuhu Second People's Hospital from June 2019 to July 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The rou-tine blood LMR values of all patients before and af-ter treatment were collected,the cut-off value was calculated according to the ROC curve,and the LMR was divided into two groups:high and low be-fore treatment and after treatment.The differenc-es of ORR,DCR,PFS and OS among the patients in each group were analyzed and compared,and the value of LMR value and dynamic changes after treatment on the efficacy and prognosis of patients with PD-1 inhibitors in the treatment of NSCLC pa-tients was analyzed.RESULTS:According to the ROC curve,the critical value of LMR was 1.8,and the LMR was divided into the low LMR group at baseline(LMRB/S<1.8),the high LMR group at base-line(LMRB/S≥1.8)and the low LMR group after treatment(LMRafter<1.8)and the high LMR group af-ter treatment(LMRafter≥1.8).The ORR and DCR after immunotherapy in the high LMRB/S group were high-er than those in the low LMRB/S group(P=0.037;P= 0.0025).Among the patients with low LMRB/S be-fore treatment,the DCR of the LMRafter≥1.8 group was better than that of the LMRafter<1.8 group after treatment(P=0.005).Among the patients with high LMR before treatment,the DCR of the LMRafter≥1.8 group was better than that of the LMRafter<1.8 group(P=0.034).Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that PFS and OS were longer in the high LMRB/S group than in the low LMRB/S group before treat-ment.In the low LMRB/S group before treatment,PFS and OS were longer in patients with LMRafter≥1.8 than those with LMRafter<1.8(P=0.047;P=0.007).Multivariate Cox regression model analysis showed that high LMRB/S value before treatment was an in-dependent risk factor for PFS and OS in NSCLC pa-tients(P=0.006;P=0.033).CONCLUSION:High LMR value of patients before immunotherapy may im-prove the efficacy of PD-1 inhibitors,improve the prognosis of patients,and prolong the survival time.Moreover,the increase of LMR value after treatment may increase the efficacy of patients with low LMR before treatment and improve the prognosis of patients.
