Evaluation of the inflammation-based modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) as a prognostic and predictive biomarker in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer receiving first-line chemotherapy: a post hoc analysis of the randomized phase III XELAVIRI trial (AIO KRK0110). ESMO Open 2024; 9:103374. [PMID: 38744100 PMCID: PMC11108861 DOI: 10.1016/j.esmoop.2024.103374] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2023] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The inflammation-based modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) combines serum levels of C-reactive protein and albumin and was shown to predict survival in advanced cancer. We aimed to elucidate the prognostic impact of mGPS on survival as well as its predictive value when combined with gender in unselected metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients receiving first-line chemotherapy in the randomized phase III XELAVIRI trial. PATIENTS AND METHODS In XELAVIRI, mCRC patients were treated with either fluoropyrimidine/bevacizumab followed by additional irinotecan at first progression (sequential treatment arm; Arm A) or upfront combination of fluoropyrimidine/bevacizumab/irinotecan (intensive treatment arm; Arm B). In the present post hoc analysis, survival was evaluated with respect to the assorted mGPS categories 0, 1 or 2. Interaction between mGPS and gender was analyzed. RESULTS Out of 421 mCRC patients treated in XELAVIRI, 362 [119 women (32.9%) and 243 men (67.1%)] were assessable. For the entire study population a significant association between mGPS and overall survival (OS) was observed [mGPS = 0: median 28.9 months, 95% confidence interval (CI) 25.9-33.6 months; mGPS = 1: median 21.4 months, 95% CI 17.6-26.1 months; mGPS = 2: median 16.8 months, 95% CI 14.3-21.2 months; P < 0.00001]. Similar results were found when comparing progression-free survival between groups. The effect of mGPS on survival did not depend on the applied treatment regimen (P = 0.21). In female patients, a trend towards longer OS was observed in Arm A versus Arm B, with this effect being clearly more pronounced in the mGPS cohort 0 (41.6 versus 25.5 months; P = 0.056). By contrast, median OS was longer in male patients with an mGPS of 1-2 treated in Arm B versus Arm A (20.8 versus 17.4 months; P = 0.022). CONCLUSION We demonstrate the role of mGPS as an independent predictor of OS regardless of the treatment regimen in mCRC patients receiving first-line treatment. mGPS may help identify gender-specific subgroups that benefit more or less from upfront intensive therapy.

Liu XR, Wang LL, Zhang B, Liu XY, Li ZW, Kang B, Yuan C, Wei ZQ, Peng D. The advanced lung cancer inflammation index is a prognostic factor for gastrointestinal cancer patients undergoing surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis. World J Surg Oncol 2023; 21:81. [PMID: 36879283 PMCID: PMC9987069 DOI: 10.1186/s12957-023-02972-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2022] [Accepted: 02/27/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI) is a comprehensive assessment indicator that can reflect inflammation and nutrition conditions. However, there are some controversies about whether ALI is an independent prognostic factor for gastrointestinal cancer patients undergoing surgical resection. Thus, we aimed to clarify its prognostic value and explore the potential mechanisms. METHODS Four databases including PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, and CNKI were used for searching eligible studies from inception to June 28, 2022. All gastrointestinal cancers, including colorectal cancer (CRC), gastric cancer (GC), esophageal cancer (EC), liver cancer, cholangiocarcinoma, and pancreatic cancer were enrolled for analysis. We focused on prognosis most in the current meta-analysis. Survival indicators, including overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), and cancer-special survival (CSS) were compared between the high ALI group and the low ALI group. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) checklist was submitted as a supplementary document. RESULTS We finally included fourteen studies involving 5091 patients in this meta-analysis. After pooling the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs), ALI was found to be an independent prognostic factor for both OS (HR = 2.09, I2 = 92%, 95% CI = 1.53 to 2.85, P < 0.01), DFS (HR = 1.48, I2 = 83%, 95% CI = 1.18 to 1.87, P < 0.01), and CSS (HR = 1.28, I2 = 1%, 95% CI = 1.02 to 1.60, P = 0.03) in gastrointestinal cancer. After subgroup analysis, we found that ALI was still closely related to OS for CRC (HR = 2.26, I2 = 93%, 95% CI = 1.53 to 3.32, P < 0.01) and GC (HR = 1.51, I2 = 40%, 95% CI = 1.13 to 2.04, P = 0.006) patients. As for DFS, ALI also has a predictive value on the prognosis of CRC (HR = 1.54, I2 = 85%, 95% CI = 1.14 to 2.07, P = 0.005) and GC (HR = 1.37, I2 = 0%, 95% CI = 1.09 to 1.73, P = 0.007) patients. CONCLUSION ALI affected gastrointestinal cancer patients in terms of OS, DFS, and CSS. Meanwhile, ALI was a prognostic factor both for CRC and GC patients after subgroup analysis. Patients with low ALI had poorer prognoses. We recommended that surgeons should perform aggressive interventions in patients with low ALI before the operation.

Abstract
The management of the primary tumor in metastatic colorectal, gastric and pancreatic cancer patients may be challenging. Indeed, primary tumor progression could be associated with severe symptoms, compromising the quality of life and the feasibility of effective systemic therapy, and might result in life-threatening complications. While retrospective series have suggested that surgery on the primary tumor may confer a survival advantage even in asymptomatic patients, randomized trials seem not to definitively support this hypothesis. We discuss the evidence for and against primary tumor resection for patients with metastatic gastrointestinal (colorectal, gastric and pancreatic) cancers treated with systemic therapies and put in context the pros and cons of the onco-surgical approach in the time of precision oncology. We also evaluate current ongoing trials on this topic, anticipating how these will influence both research and everyday practice.

A retrospective cohort study. HPB (Oxford) 2021; 23:970-978. [PMID: 33214053 DOI: 10.1016/j.hpb.2020.10.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2020] [Revised: 10/02/2020] [Accepted: 10/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The systemic inflammation-based Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS) and modified GPS (mGPS), as measured by preoperative C-reactive protein (CRP) and albumin, correlate with poor survival in several cancers. This study evaluates the prognostic value of these scores in patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). METHODS This retrospective study assessed the prognostic role of preoperatively measured GPS and mGPS in patients undergoing liver resection because of CRLM. Clinicopathological data were retrieved from local databases. The prognostic value of GPS and mGPS were compared and a Cox regression model was used to find independent predictors of overall survival. RESULTS In total, 849 consecutive patients between January 2005 and December 2015 were included. Patients with GPS 0 had a median survival of 70 months compared to 49 months in patients with GPS 1, and 27 months in patients with GPS 2. Multivariable analyses showed that GPS 1 (HR = 1.51, 95%CI [1.14-2.01]) and GPS 2 (HR = 2.78, 95%CI [1.79-4.31]), after correction for age >70 years (HR = 1.75 [1.36-2.26]), and extended resection (HR = 2.53, 95%CI[1.79-3.58]), were associated with poor overall survival. CONCLUSION A preoperative GPS is an independent prognostic factor in patients with CRLM, and appears to be a better prognostic tool than mGPS.

Abstract
PURPOSE We recently revealed the preoperative lymphocyte C-reactive protein ratio (LCR) to be a new marker for predicting various outcomes in malignancies. The aim of our present study was to clarify the potential utility of the preoperative LCR for predicting the perioperative risk and oncological outcome in esophageal cancer patients. METHODS We analyzed the preoperative LCR from 153 esophageal cancer patients to clarify its clinical relevance. RESULTS The preoperative LCR was significantly decreased in a stage-dependent manner, and a decreased preoperative LCR was significantly associated with the occurrence of postoperative surgical site infection. Esophageal cancer patients with a low LCR showed a poor outcome in both the overall survival and disease-free survival compared with those who had a high LCR. Multivariate analyses showed that a decreased LCR was an independent prognostic factor for both a poor overall survival and disease-free survival. A decreased preoperative LCR was an independent predictive factor for postoperative surgical site infection and significantly correlated with nutritional and inflammatory indicators. In addition, the LCR was useful for identifying esophageal cancer patients likely to have a poor outcome among patients with and without neoadjuvant chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS Assessing the preoperative LCR might help physicians identify populations at high risk for perioperative complication and oncological outcomes, and determine individualized perioperative therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The advanced lung cancer inflammation index is considered a useful prognostic biomarker of clinical outcomes in patients with malignancies. However, the prognostic value of the advanced lung cancer index in patients with colorectal cancer who underwent surgical resection remains unclear. OBJECTIVE In this study, we evaluated the prognostic value of the advanced lung cancer index in patients with colorectal cancer. DESIGN Prospectively obtained data of patients with colorectal cancer were retrospectively evaluated to clarify the clinical relevance of the advanced lung cancer index. SETTINGS We conducted this study at a single expert center. PATIENTS We enrolled 298 patients with colorectal cancer who underwent surgical resection in this retrospective study. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome was the clinical relevance of the advanced lung cancer index in patients with rectal cancer. RESULTS Low status of advanced lung cancer index was significantly correlated with undifferentiated histology (p = 0.004), T stage progression (p < 0.001), R1/R2 resection for primary surgery (p = 0.004), and distant metastasis (p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that low advanced lung cancer index status was an independent prognostic factor for both overall survival (HR = 3.21 (95% CI, 1.97-5.19); p < 0.001) and disease-free survival (HR = 2.13 (95% CI, 1.23-3.63); p = 0.008) in patients with colorectal cancer. Furthermore, the clinical burden of the advanced lung cancer index was consistent between sexes, and its prognostic value was verified in patients with clinically relevant stage III colorectal cancer. LIMITATIONS The present study had several limitations, including retrospective observation and a small sample size of Japanese patients from a single institution. CONCLUSIONS The advanced lung cancer index could be a useful prognostic indicator of clinical outcomes in patients who underwent surgical resection for colorectal cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic inflammation via host-tumor interactions is currently recognized as a hallmark of cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of various combinations of inflammatory factors using preoperative blood, and to assess the clinical significance of our newly developed inflammatory score in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. METHOD In total 477 CRC patients from the discovery and validation cohorts were enrolled in this study. We assessed the predictive impact for recurrence using a combination of nine inflammatory markers in the discovery set, and focused on lymphocyte-C-reactive protein ratio (LCR) to elucidate its prognostic and predictive value for peri-operative risk in both cohorts. RESULTS A combination of lymphocytic count along with C-reactive protein levels demonstrated the highest correlation with recurrence compared with other parameters in CRC patients. Lower levels of preoperative LCR significantly correlated with undifferentiated histology, advanced T stage, presence of lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, and advanced stage classification. Decreased preoperative LCR (using an optimal cut-off threshold of 6000) was an independent prognostic factor for both disease-free survival and overall survival, and emerged as an independent risk factor for postoperative complications and surgical-site infections in CRC patients. Finally, we assessed the clinical feasibility of LCR in an independent validation cohort, and confirmed that decreased preoperative LCR was an independent prognostic factor for both disease-free survival and overall survival, and was an independent predictor for postoperative complications and surgical-site infections in CRC patients. CONCLUSION Preoperative LCR is a useful marker for perioperative and postoperative management of CRC patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Gastric cancer (GC) is a common malignancy, especially in East Asian countries. There is emerging evidence that circulating neutrophil and platelet levels correlate with cancer progression. We evaluated the short- and long-term outcomes of GC patients systemically, to compare the original neutrophil-platelet score (NPS) and our modified NPS (mNPS). METHODS We analyzed the original pre-operative NPS and the mNPS of 621 GC patients. RESULTS Racial differences between the United Kingdom and East Asian countries accounted for compelling deviation in classification using the original NPS, which could not reliably stratify the prognoses of Japanese GC patients. We developed the mNPS using appropriate cutoff levels for pre-operative neutrophils and platelets, and demonstrated that the pre-operative mNPS was significantly correlated with all of the well-established clinicopathological factors for disease development, including advanced T stage, venous and lymphatic vessel invasion, lymph node/peritoneal /distant metastasis, and tumor-node-metastasis stage. The pre-operative mNPS could stratify prognostication for both overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS): a high pre-operative mNPS was an independent prognostic factor for the OS and DFS of GC patients and also an independent predictor of post-operative surgical site infection after gastrectomy. CONCLUSION Calculating the mNPS could help clinicians to stratify the surgical and oncological risks of patients with GC.

Lymphocyte-to-C-reactive protein ratio and score are clinically feasible nutrition-inflammation markers of outcome in patients with gastric cancer. Clin Nutr 2019; 39:1209-1217. [PMID: 31155370 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnu.2019.05.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 79] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2019] [Revised: 04/22/2019] [Accepted: 05/07/2019] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUNDS Systemic inflammation arising from complex host-tumour interactions is considered the seventh hallmark of cancer. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical feasibility of our newly developed 'lymphocyte-to-C-reactive protein (CRP) ratio' (LCR) and 'lymphocyte CRP score' (LCS) for predicting short- and long-term outcomes in patients with gastric cancer (GC). METHODS In this observational study, we retrospectively analysed pre-operative LCRs and LCSs from 551 GC patients to elucidate these prognostic value for overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS) and to clarify these predictive value for peri-operative risk of surgical site infection (SSI) in GC patients. RESULTS Reduced pre-operative LCRs significantly correlated with all of the well-established clinicopathological factors for disease development, including advanced T stage, venous and lymphatic vessel invasion, lymph node/hepatic/peritoneal metastasis, distant metastasis, and advanced tumour-node-metastasis stage. In the short-term outcome, low pre-operative LCR was an independent predictive factor for post-operative SSI. In the long-term outcome, low pre-operative LCR was an independent prognostic factor for OS and DFS, and prognostic impact of pre-operative LCR were verified in patients with metastatic and non-metastatic gastric cancer. Furthermore, our developed scoring system using lymphocyte and CRP (Lymphocyte-CRP Score; LCS) could also demonstrate all of clinical significance in GC patients, and both of LCR and LCS were significantly correlated with various representative nutrition markers, including BMI, PNI, and albumin, in GC patients. CONCLUSIONS Pre-operative LCR and LCS are clinically feasible nutrition-inflammation markers in GC patients. Assessment of lymphocytes and CRP could aid physicians in determining surgical risk and oncological risk, thus facilitating appropriate peri-operative and post-operative management of patients with GC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite advances in local control of rectal cancer, recurrence in distant organs is still one of the main causes of mortality. Prognostic biomarkers would be valuable for the treatment of patients who have rectal cancer. OBJECTIVE The aim of our study was to investigate the prognostic impact of lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio in patients with rectal cancer receiving preoperative chemoradiotherapy, and to clarify the clinical significance of lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio. DESIGN Prospectively maintained data of patients with rectal cancer were retrospectively evaluated to clarify the clinical relevance of the lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio. SETTING This study was conducted at a single expert center. PATIENTS A total of 119 consecutive patients with rectal cancer through chemoradiotherapy followed by total mesorectal excision at our institute were enrolled in this study. Eight patients were excluded because of a lack of laboratory data, and finally 111 patients were assessed in this study. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome measured was the clinical relevance of the lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio in patients with rectal cancer receiving chemoradiotherapy. RESULTS Patients with a low pretreatment lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio showed poor prognosis significantly both in overall survival and disease-free survival of those with rectal cancer receiving chemoradiotherapy. Multivariate analyses showed that low pretreatment lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio level, presence of pathological lymph node metastasis (ypN(+)), and high pretreatment serum C-reactive protein level were independent prognostic factors of overall survival and disease-free survival. In addition, time-to-event analysis divided into 2 groups by ypN status showed that low pretreatment lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio was correlated with poor overall survival and disease-free survival not only in group ypN(-) but also in group ypN(+). LIMITATIONS The present study had several limitations, including that it was a retrospective observational and single institutional study with Japanese patients. CONCLUSIONS The combination of lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio and ypN status can be a predictive marker of poor prognosis and recurrence among patients with rectal cancer undergoing preoperative chemoradiotherapy.

Abstract
Purpose The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the value of the Glasgow prognostic score (GPS) or modified Glasgow prognostic score (mGPS) in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods A comprehensive medical literature search was performed using the online databases PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library. After extracting basic characteristics and prognostic data from the included studies, overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) were pooled as primary outcomes. Subgroup analyses were performed according to therapeutic strategies, models, cutoff values, regions, tumor, node, metastasis stages, sample size, and ages. Results Forty-three independent cohorts from 41 studies with 9,839 CRC patients were included in the present study. Correlation between GPS or mGPS and OS was analyzed in 32 cohorts of 7,714 patients, and 23 independent cohorts of 5,375 patients focused on the correlation between GPS or mGPS and CSS. The overall outcomes showed that patients with elevated GPS or mGPS were associated with poor OS (HR: 2.20, 95% CI: 1.88–2.57, P<0.001). Elevated GPS or mGPS also resulted in worse CSS (HR: 1.86, 95% CI: 1.59–2.17, P<0.001). The results of the subgroup analyses confirmed the overall outcomes. Conclusion GPS or mGPS is an accurate prognostic predictor in patients with CRC. Patients with elevated pretreatment GPS or mGPS have a poor prognosis. Subgroup analyses confirmed the overall outcomes. Pretreatment GPS is a useful biomarker in the management of CRC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sarcopenia is defined as the loss of skeletal muscle mass, accompanied by decreased muscle strength, and consists of myopenia and myosteatosis. Recent evidence has suggested the predictive value of sarcopenia for the risk of perioperative and oncological outcomes in various malignancies. The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical impact of myopenia and myosteatosis in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. METHODS We analyzed the preoperative psoas muscle mass index and intramuscular adipose tissue content using preoperative computed tomography images from 308 CRC patients using statistical methods. RESULTS Despite no significant correlation between myosteatosis and prognosis, preoperative myopenia significantly correlated with clinicopathological factors for disease development, including advanced tumor depth (P = 0.009), presence of lymphatic vessel invasion (P = 0.006), distant metastasis (P = 0.0007), and advanced stage classification (P = 0.013). Presence of preoperative myopenia was an independent prognostic factor for both cancer-specific survival (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.75, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.5-5.05, P = 0.001) and disease-free survival (HR: 3.15, 95% CI: 1.8-5.51, P = 0.0001), and was an independent risk factor for postoperative infectious complications in CRC patients (odds ratio: 2.03, 95% CI:1.17-3.55, P = 0.013). Furthermore, these findings were successfully validated using propensity score matching analysis. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative myopenia could be useful for perioperative management, and quantification of preoperative skeletal muscle mass could identify patients as a high risk for perioperative and oncological outcomes in CRC patients.
