Abstract
The modified Glasgow Prognosis Score (mGPS), which considers both inflammatory response and nutritional status, has been linked to the prognosis of various tumors. The relationship between mGPS and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is still a subject of debate. This meta-analysis aims to comprehensively assess the association between mGPS and survival in NSCLC treated with ICIs. A thorough review of studies from PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Embase was conducted up to June 4, 2024. Fixed-effect or random-effect models were employed, combining hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI), to assess the prognostic value of mGPS for OS and PFS in patients with NSCLC receiving immunotherapy. A total of 1,022 patients from 11 studies were recruited. Combined results showed that mGPS elevation was significantly associated with poor OS (HR = 1.63, 95%CI: 1.42-1.87, P < 0.01) and PFS (HR = 1.71, 95%CI: 1.31-2.24, P < 0.01). Subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis further determined the predictive effect of elevated mGPS on OS and PFS deterioration in NSCLC patients receiving immunotherapy. mGPS can be used as a good noninvasive biomarker to demonstrate prognostic and clinical significance in patients with NSCLC undergoing immunotherapy. http://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/ PROSPERO, identifier CRD42023432661.
