Popis: Itroduction. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have become the standard of care for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. However, despite the determination of programmed death-ligand 1 expression in clinical practice, which determines the effectiveness of therapy, up to 80 % of patients with non-small cell lung cancer do not respond to treatment.The study objective – investigation of the prognostic role of clinical and immunological markers during immune checkpoint inhibitor monotherapy in ≥2 lines in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.Materials and methods. The study included 45 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer receiving programmed cell death 1 / programmed death-ligand 1 inhibitors in monotherapy in 2 and subsequent lines (Group 1), as well as 30 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer receiving first-line chemotherapy (Group 2). All patients from 2 groups did not have autoimmune diseases before starting treatment. The determination of autoantibodies, β-2-microglobulin, neopterin, interleukin 6, interleukin 18 and the allelic variant of HLA-DRB1 in patients in the Group 1 was carried out 2 months after the start of therapy, and in the Group 2 – before the start of the next chemotherapy cycle.Results. In Group 1, the presence of EGFR / ALK mutations is an independent predictor of shorter progression-free survival (p = 0.018). Also, in the univariate analysis, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio
