Popis: | Since the role of resistin was evaluated only in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) not treated with immunotherapy, we aimed to evaluate levels of resistin during immunotherapy (nivolumab) and its prognostic role with regard to OS. From a cohort of 78 patients with advanced NSCLC enrolled in a prospective study at Ospedale Policlinico San Martino in Genoa (Italy), 43 patients have been considered for this sub-analysis because of the availability of samples. Before and during nivolumab administration, clinical information and blood samples were collected and resistin, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-8, MMP-9, and myeloperoxidase were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Median age was 71 with a prevalence of males and former smokers. Median resistin levels presented a peak at cycle 2 and then dropped down until the last cycle. Resistin correlated with all neutrophil degranulation products at cycle 1 (except for MMP-9) and at cycle 2 as well as with white blood cells and neutrophils. By a ROC curve analysis, a resistin value at cycle 2 of 19 ng/mL was tested as the best cut-off point for OS. Kaplan–Meier analysis demonstrated that patients above the resistin cut-off experienced a reduced OS (median OS 242.5 vs. 470 days, p = 0.0073), as confirmed by Cox proportional hazards regression analysis. Resistin levels > 19 ng/mL at the time of the second cycle of nivolumab treatment independently predict a reduced OS in patients with advanced NSCLC. |
