摘要
Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of the lymphocyte-C-reactive protein ratio (LCR) score, a novel inflammation-based score based on lymphocytes and C-reactive protein, in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients treated with curative intent. Patients and Methods A total of 1158 HCC patients undergoing surgical resection or radiofrequency ablation with curative intent were recruited from 3 different centres and divided into a primary cohort (n=716) and a validation cohort (n=442). Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify variables associated with overall survival (OS). The discriminatory accuracy of seven inflammation-based scores was compared by using the concordance index (C-index). Results The LCR score differentiated HCC patients into two groups with distinct prognoses (1-, 3-, and 5-year OS rates and median OS: 92.9%, 81.9%, 73.3% and 99.2 months and 79.8%, 56.6%, 49.7% and 69.1 months; P<0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that LCR score, AFP, ALBI score, tumour size, and TNM stage were independently associated with OS. When patients were stratified according to different disease states, the LCR score could still differentiate HCC patients into two groups with distinct prognoses (all P<0.005). The LCR score demonstrated a markedly superior C-index of 0.621 compared with the other inflammation-based scores (0.503-0.590). These findings were supported by the validation cohort. Conclusion The preoperative LCR score is a novel, stable, and clinically feasible prognostic marker for patients with HCC, independent of liver function, tumour characteristics, and treatment allocation and is superior to other inflammation-based scores in terms of its prognostic ability.
