Clinical and laboratory parameters associated with rapid progression in advanced NSCLC patients treated with second or third-line single agent immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs).
Abstract:e21087 Background: While laboratory parameters including PDL1 expression and NLR are associated with outcomes in patients with metastatic NSCLC treated with ICIs, these measures have not identified patients with rapid progression (RP) defined as progressive disease within 30 days. Clinical factors including patient age and weight loss have been associated with cancer outcomes in general. Identifying clinical correlates for NSCLC patients who experience RP on ICI therapy would be useful. Methods: The objective… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
