We evaluated the impact of lung immune prognostic index (LIPI), a novel prognostic score, in this setting. METHODS: This multi-institutional retrospective study recruited 235 patients who underwent radical surgery for hrRCC (pT3 or higher, N0-2, M0) between 2004 and 2021. LIPI scores were calculated based on the dNLR (neutrophil/WBC-neutrophil) and the LDH level. The association between LIPI and local or distant recurrence were analyzed, along with other possible clinical factors using the Cox hazards model. RESULTS: The median recurrence-free survival (RFS) was 36.4 [95% CI: 29.6–63.8] months. Based on the LIPI, 119 (50.6%), 91 (38.7%) and 25 (10.6%) patients were each allocated to good (score=0), intermediate (=1), and poor (=2) groups, respectively. The RFS were significantly correlated with the LIPI scores (median PFS: 90.8 vs. 21.2 vs. 10.0 months, p<0.001), and at 50.0 months all the patients in the poor groups were either recurred or censored, compared to 42.5% in the good or 67.0% in intermediate. LIPI was shown to be a independent predictor of RFS when analyzed in the multivariable Cox hazard model. Significant improvement of C-index was shown when adding LIPI to the existing UISS score (0.629 to 0.701). CONCLUSIONS: LIPI could be a significant prognostic biomarker for recurrence prediction in hrRCC, particularly in identifying the highest-risk cohort.
