Abstract
This study aimed to assess the clinical value of the modified albumin-bilirubin (mALBI) grade in predicting the survival of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with immunotherapy. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients with advanced NSCLC who received immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) from January 2020 to May 2022. The primary endpoints were overall survival (OS), treatment response, and the association between different mALBI grades and survival. In these 67 patients, 85.1% (57/67) were male, and the median age was 63 years. The patients with mALBI grades 1 and 2a at baseline had a median OS of 12.83 months (95% CI: 9.4 to 16.27 months), whereas it was 3.2 months (95% CI: NA to 11.59 months) for patients with mALBI grades 2b and 3. The OS for patients with dynamic mALBI grades 1 and 2a was 13.27 months (95% CI: 8.72 to 17.81 months), significantly longer than five months (95% CI: 2.47 to 7.53 months) for dynamic mALBI grades 2b and 3 patients (p<0.01). Conclusion: In conclusion, mALBI grade may be a potential dynamic biomarker for predicting the prognosis in advanced NSCLC patients treated with immunotherapy.
