On-treatment lung immune prognostic index is predictive for first-line PD-1 inhibitor combined with chemotherapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Inflammation is a factor that promotes tumor progression and immunosuppression. Lung immune prognostic index (LIPI) is a non-invasive and easily calculated indicator of inflammation. This study aimed to investigate whether continuous assessment of LIPI has predictive value for chemoimmunotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients receiving first-line programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) inhibitor plus chemotherapy. In addition, the predictive value of LIPI in patients with the negative or low programmed death-ligand (PD-L1) expression level was also explored. Methods: Totally, 146 stage IIIB to IV or recurrent NSCLC patients who received first-line PD-1 inhibitor combined with chemotherapy were enrolled in this study. The LIPI scores were calculated at baseline (PRE-LIPI) and after two cycles of the combined administration (POST-LIPI). This study analyzed the relationship between good/intermediate/poor PRE (POST)-LIPI and objective response rate (ORR), as well as progression-free survival (PFS) using logistic and Cox regression models. In addition, the predictive value of LIPI in patients with the negative or low PD-L1 expression level was explored. To further assess the potential predictive value of continuous assessment of LIPI, the association of sum (LIPI) [sum(LIPI) = PRE-LIPI + POST-LIPI] and PFS was analyzed in the 146 patients. Results: Compared with good POST-LIPI group, significantly lower ORRs were found in intermediate POST-LIPI (P = 0.005) and poor POST-LIPI (P = 0.018) groups. Moreover, intermediate POST-LIPI (P =0.003) and poor POST-LIPI (P < 0.001) were significantly associated with a shorter PFS than good POST-LIPI. Additionally, a higher POST-LIPI score was still significantly associated with poorer treatment efficacy in patients with the negative or low PD-L1 expression level. Moreover, a higher sum (LIPI) score was significantly correlated with a shorter PFS (P = 0.001). Conclusion: Continuous assessment of LIPI might be an effective method for predicting the efficacy of PD-1 inhibitor plus chemotherapy in NSCLC patients. In addition, in patients with the negative or low PD-L1 expression level, it might also have a potential predictive value for therapeutic efficacy to continuously assess LIPI during the treatment.
