Abstract Although the oncological outcomes in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) have markedly improved over the past decade, the survival prediction is still challenging. The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and analyze the relationship of between the NLR and immune cells phenotypes in patients with PDAC. Sixty-seven consecutive patients with PDAC were recruited in this study. Life-table estimates of survival time were calculated according to the Kaplan and Meier methodology. The phenotypic T cells subclasses were evaluated by flow cytometry. All the 67 patients in this study were treated with surgical resection and among them, 46 patients received adjuvant chemotherapy. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves analysis was performed to compare prognostic value of NLR with CA199. We found that the Harrell's area under ROC (AUROC) for the NLR to predict overall survival (OS) (0.840; 95% CI, 0.766–0.898) was significantly higher than that of the CA199 levels. After that we stratified all patients into NLR > 2.5 (n = 42) and NLR ≤ 2.5 (n = 25) groups according to the OS of patients with PDAC. Survival analysis showed that patients with NLR ≤ 2.5 had significantly favorable OS and progressive free survival (PFS) compared with patients with NLR > 2.5. The CD3+ and CD8+/CD28+ T cell subsets were significantly increased in patients with NLR ≤ 2.5 (P<0.05), while the CD8+/CD28- and CD4+/CD25+ cell subsets were significantly decreased in patients with NLR ≤ 2.5 (P<0.05). In conclusion, a high NLR value independently predicts poor survival in patients with PDAC after surgical resection. The NLR was closely related with immune cells phenotypes The NLR may help oncologists evaluate outcomes of patients received surgical resection and chemotherapy to choose alternative therapies for patients with high NLR value.

Term Survival

BackgroundSurgical resection with adjuvant chemotherapy is the only treatment that can provide long term survival in localized pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (LPDAC). Notwithstanding, recurrence occurs in the vast majority of patients and a better stratification of preoperative therapies is required. This study aimed to investigate preoperative immunological and nutritional factors to predict relapse-free survival (RFS) in patients with LPDAC.MethodsAnalyses were derived from all consecutive LPDAC patients treated with surgical resection at Besancon University Hospital, France, between January 2006 and December 2014 (n=146). Biological and nutritional parameters were recorded before and after surgery. The association of 24 baseline parameters with RFS was evaluated using univariate and multivariate Cox analyses. Based on the final model, a prognostic score was developed.ResultsLymphocyte count and body composition were available for 94 patients. In multivariate analysis, preoperative lymphopenia and sarcopenia (or a low muscle mass) were identified as independent prognostic factors for RFS. The score determined three groups with a median RFS of 5.6 months (95% confidence interval [CI] = 4.3 to 9.6 months) for high-risk group, corresponding to patients with lymphopenia; 11.5 months (95%CI = 9.8 to 13.9 months), and 21.2 months (95%CI = 9.9 to 55.3 months), for intermediate-(patient with sarcopenia without lymphopenia), and low-risk groups (no risk factor), respectively (p <0.001). Preoperative sarcopenia predicts the occurrence of postoperative lymphopenia in patients with a preoperative lymphocyte count above 1,000/mm3 (p = 0.0029).ConclusionsPreoperative lymphopenia and sarcopenia are pejorative prognostic factors in LPDAC and should be considered in the preoperative evaluation to stratify death risk in patients with LPDAC.

Nutritional Index

Background: In many malignancies, including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), host-related inflammatory/immunonutritional markers, such as the prognostic nutritional index (PNI), modified Glasgow prognostic score (mGPS), and C-reactive protein (CRP)/albumin ratio are reported to be prognostic factors. However, the prognostic influence of these factors before and after chemoradiotherapy (CRT) has not been studied in PDAC patients. Methods: Of 261 consecutive PDAC patients who were scheduled for CRT with gemcitabine or S1 plus gemcitabine between February 2005 and December 2015, participants in this study were 176 who completed CRT and had full data available on inflammatory/immunonutritional markers as well as on anatomical and biological factors for the investigation of prognostic/predictive factors. Results: In multivariate analysis, the significant prognostic factors were RECIST classification, cT category, performance status, post-CRT carcinoembryonic antigen, post-CRT C-reactive protein/albumin ratio, post-CRT mGPS, and post-CRT PNI. Post-CRT PNI (cut-off value, 39) was the strongest host-related prognostic factor according to the p-value. In the patients who underwent resection after CRT, median survival time (MST) was significantly shorter in the 12 patients with low PNI (<39) than in the 97 with high PNI (≥39), at 15.5 months versus 27.2 months, respectively (p = 0.0016). In the patients who did not undergo resection, MST was only 8.9 months in those with low PNI and 12.3 months in those with high PNI (p < 0.0001), and thus was similar to that of the resected patients with low PNI. Conclusions: Post-CRT PNI was the strongest prognostic/predictive indicator among the independent biological and conditional prognostic factors in PDAC patients who underwent CRT.

Abstract Background: Frailty is an important consideration for older patients undergoing surgery. We aimed to investigate whether frailty could be prognostic factor in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who underwent pancreatic resection.Methods: One hundred and twenty patients who underwent pancreatic resection for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma were enrolled. Frailty was defined as a clinical frailty scale score ≥4. Patients were divided into frailty (n = 29) and non-frailty (n=91) groups, and clinicopathological factors were compared between two groups. Results: The frailty group showed an older age, lower serum albumin concentration, lower prognostic nutritional index, larger tumor diameter, and higher rate of lymph node metastasis than the non-frailty group (p < 0.05). Neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio and modified Glasgow prognostic score tended to be higher in the frailty group. Cancer-specific and disease-free survival rates were significantly poor in the frailty group (p < 0.05). With a multivariate analysis, frailty was an independent prognostic factor of cancer-specific survival.Conclusions: Frailty can predict the prognosis of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who undergo pancreatic resection.

The Glasgow Prognostic Score

Background/Aims: Increasing evidence indicates that the systemic inflammatory response plays a vital role in carcinogenesis. The Glasgow Prognostic Score or modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS/mGPS) is a novel inflammatory indicator which consists of CRP and albumin. Here, we performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the prognostic value of the GPS/ mGPS in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) and to assess its consistency in different CRC therapies. Methods: The electronic databases PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library were searched from inception through December 2017 for the association between the GPS/mGPS and clinical outcomes. Study characteristics and prognostic data were extracted from each relevant study. Overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) were considered the primary outcomes, and hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. The quality of each study was pooled using the random-effects Mantel-Haenszel model. Finally, subgroup analyses were performed to detect the heterogeneity of different CRC treatments. Results: Thirty-four studies, with a combined total of 8834 patients, were eligible for this meta-analysis. Data on OS and CSS were available in 23 and 22 studies, respectively. By comparing the prognostic values of different levels of the GPS in CRC patients, the summary HRs for OS and CSS were 2.18 (95% CI 1.83-2.60) and 1.82 (95% CI 1.57-2.11), respectively. According to the different tumor stages, the subgroup analyses were stratified by different treatments, including curative or palliative therapy. The results robustly confirmed the prognostic role of the GPS/mGPS. Conclusion: Our results suggest that the GPS/mGPS is a novel and effective prognostic indicator for the OS and CSS of patients with CRC.
