Nutrition and cancer 2024The Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS) has proven to be a good biomarker for lung cancer prognosis. However, its usefulness in lung cancer patients receiving checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy remains controversial. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to explore the prognostic value of the GPS in non-small cell lung cancer patients receiving immunotherapy. PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Embase were systematically searched for relevant studies up to May 31, 2023, and hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were merged to investigate the prognostic value of the GPS for overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Seven studies comprising 833 patients were included in the primary analysis, and the pooled results indicated that a higher baseline GPS was associated with poorer OS and PFS in non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) (OS: HR = 1.95, 95% CI: 1.47-2.58, pā<ā0.01; PFS: HR = 1.63, 95% CI: 1.26-2.11, pā<ā0.01). These findings were robust after subgroup and sensitivity analyses. The GPS can serve as a biomarker in non-small cell lung cancer patients receiving immunotherapy with significant prognostic value; however, these findings require more prospective evidence for validation.
