Clinical utility of the C-reactive protein:albumin ratio in non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with nivolumab.

Significant findings of the study The baseline value of C-reactive protein:albumin ratio was significantly associated with one-year mortality and overall survival in non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with nivolumab. What this study adds Time-series change of C-reactive protein:albumin ratio may be useful for predicting the treatment efficacy in patients treated with nivolumab.
