Abstract
100 Background: Immunosenescence, an age-related impairment of the immune system, dampens acquired immunity and promotes inflammation. Therefore, it could also influence the degree of effectiveness of immune checkpoint inhibitors. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the data of 52 NSCLC patients aged ≧75 years old treated with nivolumab or pembrolizumab from December 2015 to April 2019. Immunosenescence was assessed by the modified Glasgow Prognostic Scale (mGPS), Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), which are related to nutrition, inflammation and comorbidity, respectively. The Cox proportional hazard model and Kaplan-Meier curves were used to identify factors associated with survival. Results: The median follow-up duration was 19.5M (IQR:1-41). The patient characteristics were as follows: median age 79.7 years; male/female ratio, 41/11; PS0/1/2/3, 10/32/8/2; adeno/squamous histology/others, 33/15/4;stage III/IV/recurrence, 2/26/24; PD-L1 (22C3) (%)unknown/0/1-49/50-100, 18/2/8/24; driver mutation status positive/negative, 11/41; nivolumab/pembrolizumab, 29/23; treatment line 1/2/3/4 or more, 28/15/3/6; median number of treatment cycles 7.0 (1-53). The overall response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) were29.1% and 56.2%, respectively. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 4.2 months (95% CI 1.8-7.5). The mGPS was significantly associated with the DCR (High/Low = 37.5/68.8%, p = 0.02) and the PFS (score 0-1/2 = 4.1/0.6 months) (HR: 0.37, 95% CI 0.18-0.74, p <0.01). However, neither the CCI nor the NLR wasassociated with the PFS (CCI: High/Low = 3.8/1.8 months, p = 0.64, and NLR: High (>3.5)/Low (≦3.5) = 3.8/5.6 months, p = 0.89). Multivariate regression analysis identified the mGPS as a significant predictor of the PFS(HR: 0.40, p = 0.008). Conclusions: A high mGPS score was significantly associated with a lower DCR and shorter PFS in elderly NSCLC patients treated with anti-PD-1 antibody.
