Abstract Background Immunotherapy has become a standard‐of‐care for patients with non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Although several biomarkers, such as programmed cell death‐1, have been shown to be useful in selecting patients likely to benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), more useful and reliable ones should be investigated. The prognostic nutritional index (PNI) is a marker of the immune and nutritional status of the host, and is derived from serum albumin level and peripheral lymphocyte count. Although several groups reported its prognostic role in patients with NSCLC receiving a single ICI, there exist no reports which have demonstrated its role in the first‐line ICI combined with or without chemotherapy. Materials and Methods Two‐hundred and eighteen patients with NSCLC were included in the current study and received pembrolizumab alone or chemoimmunotherapy as the first‐line therapy. Cutoff value of the pretreatment PNI was set as 42.17. Results Among 218 patients, 123 (56.4%) had a high PNI (≥42.17), while 95 (43.6%) had a low PNI ( |
