Abstract 3277
Background
Cancer-related inflammation is a distinctive feature of the development and progression of PC. However, the relationship between the systemic inflammatory response and survival has not been evaluated as a predictive factor of chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic and predictive value of a baseline SIRI based on peripheral neutrophil, monocyte, and lymphocyte counts in metastatic PC.
Methods
Retrospective review of 178 metastatic pancreatic cancer patients. Associations between overall survival (OS), time to progression (TTP), chemotherapy schedule and SIRI at diagnosis were analyzed.
Results
Median age 67 years, 52% were male. First line chemotherapy regimens: 41% Gemcitabine, 31% Gemcitabine plus Nab-Paclitaxel and 17% mFOLFIRINOX. Patients with SIRI<2.3x109 showed a statistically significant improvement in OS compared to SIRI≥2.3x109 [16 months versus 4.8 months, Hazard Ratio (HR) 2.87, Confidence Interval (CI) 95% 2.02-4.07, p < 0.0001] that was confirmed in multivariate analysis. In addition, patients with SIRI<2.3x109 showed a longer TTP (12 versus 6 months, HR 1.92, IC 95% 1.314-2.800, P = 0.001). Furthermore, we observed that patients with SIRI ≥2.3x109 are more likely to benefit from mFOLFIRINOX therapy. Patients with an elevated SIRI treated with mFOLFIRINOX versus Gemcitabine plus Nab-Paclitaxel and Gemcitabine showed a clinically and statistically significant difference in median OS of 17 months compared to 6 and 4 months respectively (p < 0.001). Conversely, the difference was not clinically significant in the SIRI<2.3x109 subgroup: 15.9 months versus 16.5 and 16, respectively.
Conclusions
An elevated SIRI (≥2.3x109) is an independent prognostic factor for survival in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer. Patients with an elevated SIRI (≥2.3x109) show an increased benefit from mFOLFIRINOX in comparison to other first line chemotherapy regimens. These results raise the issue of appropriately selecting patients who would benefit of a more intensive first-line chemotherapy regimen.
