Popis: Objective Current biomarkers for predicting immunotherapy response in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are derived from invasive procedures with limited predictive accuracy. Thus, identifying a non-invasive predictive biomarker would improve patient stratification and precision immunotherapy.Methods and analysis In this retrospective multicohort study, the discovery cohort included 205 NSCLC patients screened from ORIENT-11 and an external validation (EV) cohort included 99 real-world NSCLC patients. The ‘onion-mode segmentation’ method was developed to extract ‘onion-mode perfusion’ (OMP) from contrast-enhanced CT images. The predictive performance of OMP or its combination with the PD-L1 Tumour Proportion Score (TPS) was evaluated by the area under the curve (AUC).Results High baseline OMP was associated with significantly longer survival and predicted patient response to combination anti-PD-(L)1 therapy in the discovery and EV cohorts. OMP complemented the PD-L1 TPS with superior predictive sensitivity (p=0.02). In the PD-L1 TPS
