A total of 202 LAEC patients from four different cancer centers were retrospectively reviewed. Nutritional risk and PS were measured using the Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS-2002) scores and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) scales. Outcomes were clinical response rate, overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Multivariate analysis of predictive factors of response to dCRT and survival were performed using a logistic regression and a Cox model, respectively. The majority of patients (71.8%) had an ECOG PS score of 0-1, and 52.5% (n=106) of patients were identified as having nutritional risk (NRS-2002 ≥3) upon treatment initiation. There was no correlation between NRS-2002 scores and ECOG PS (Spearman’s ρ=0.046; P =0.516). In multivariate analysis, NRS-2002 scores ( P =0.002, HR 2.805, 95%CI: 1.445-5.446) and ECOG PS ( P =0.015, HR 2.719, 95%CI: 1.218-6.067) were independent prognostic factors for the response to dCRT. NRS-2002 scores (OS: HR 1.530, 95%CI 1.059-2.209; P =0.023; PFS: HR 1.517, 95%CI 1.105-2.082; P =0.010) and ECOG PS (OS: HR 1.729, 95%CI 1.185-2.522; P =0.005; PFS: HR 1.678, 95%CI 1.179-2.387; P =0.004) were both independent prognostic factors for OS and PFS. In conclusions, NRS-2002 scores and ECOG PS scales both have prognostic effects on clinical response and survival in LAEC, but a significant association of NRS-2002 scores and ECOG PS were not observed. |
