Dissecting the impact of Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score on survival outcomes and immune-inflammatory profiles in patients with advanced NSCLC undergoing first-line immunotherapy

Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer | |

Background <p>The immunonutritional background has been deeply implicated in cancer behavior and clinical outcomes. In this study, we explored the prognostic impact of the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score through its correlation with blood immunophenotypes and cytokines to provide an easily available non-invasive tool to predict the survival benefit from first-line immune checkpoint inhibitors&plusmn;chemotherapy (ICI&plusmn;CHT) in patients affected by advanced…
