Dynamics of blood neutrophil‐related indices during nivolumab treatment may be associated with response to salvage chemotherapy for non‐small cell lung cancer: A hypothesis‐generating study

Dynamics of blood neutrophil‐related indices during nivolumab treatment may be associated with response to salvage chemotherapy for non‐small cell lung cancer: A hypothesis‐generating study

Several recent studies have shown that salvage chemotherapy following PD‐1 blockade produces high antitumor activity in some patients with non‐small lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the underlying synergistic mechanisms remain uncertain. The blood neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and absolute neutr...
