Abstract 1251P
Background
Neutrality trial aims to analyze the prognostic role of blood biomarkes such as NLR (neutrophils to lymphocytes ratio), SII (Systemic Inflammatory Index-NLR x platelets), dNLR (neutrophil to leukocytes - neutrophil ratio) and LIPI (Lung Immune Prognostic Index) in stage III NSCLC patients (pts) treated with radiochemotherapy (RT-CHT) followed by Durvalumab (Cohort A), and in pts treated with RT-CHT alone (Cohort B).
Methods
NEUTRALITY is a retrospective multicentric observational study (ESR-19-20410). Blood count tests were recorded at the end of RT-CHT for Cohort B and during Durvalumab course for Cohort A. Different cut-offs of NLR, dNLR and SII were considered, based on the median values observed. Three LIPI index groups were analyzed: good (dNLR ≤ 3 and LDH ≤ UNL), intermediate (dNLR>; 3 or LDH ≥ UNL) and poor (dNLR>; 3 and LDH ≥ UNL). We performed a Cox-Regression analysis to correlate these biomarkers to overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS).
Results
Overall 190 pts (96 in Cohort A and 94 in Cohort B) were enrolled from 35 Italian Centers. Details of pts are shown in the table. For cohort A, we observed a significant correlation between baseline NLR, SII and dNLR with PFS: p 0.017, p 0.03 and p 0.018, respectively. LIPI was found to correlate with PFS too, with a better PFS in the good group, as expected (p 0.04). No correlation was found between these biomarkers and PFS and OS in Cohort B. Table: 1251P

Conclusions
Our analysis suggests that blood inflammatory biomarkers can have a prognostic role for stage III NSCLC treated as per Pacific regimen. Further analysis are still ongoing to compare the two cohorts.
