410 Background: There is little information available about prognostic markers of GC (gemcitabine, cisplatin) in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC). Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in several cancers was might to be a prognostic factor associated with clinical outcomes, we examine NLR in patient with BTC underwent chemotherapy (GC). Methods: Retrospective chart review for consecutive patients who underwent GC for advanced BTC in our institute were performed. The patients who were enrolled in ongoing clinical trials were excluded. Gemcitabine and cisplatin were administered intravenously at doses of 1,000 or 25 mg/m2, on day one and eight, every three weeks. We divided these patients based on estimated NLR, and evaluated the clinicopathological factors and survival in the two groups (NLR ≥ 3 or < 3). Results: 57 patients from 2013 to 2017 were reviewed. 23 patients were in NLR ≥ 3 group and 34 patients were in NLR < 3 group. Patients characteristics were as follows; median age, 68 years old (range: 38-83) years: male 36 (63%); primary tumor lesion, intrahepatic bile duct 6 (10%)/extrahepatic bile duct 32 (56%)/gallbladder 18 (32%)/ampulla of vater 1 (2%); therapeutic purpose, palliative 50 (88%)/adjuvant 5 (8%)/neoadjuvant 2 (4%); PS, 0/1. Response rate of the patients who had measurable lesion according to RECIST v1.1 was 17% (8/46), and disease control rate was 70% (32/46). The progression-free survival rate between the two groups is not significantly different. Although, the median overall survival (OS) of NLR ≥ 3 group was 11.8 months, while OS of NLR < 3 group was 29.2 months. The overall survival rate in the NLR ≥ 3 group was significantly lower than that in the NLR < 3 group ( P = 0.0339). Conclusions: Our study confirmed that high NLR is associated with worse OS and PFS, and suggested it may be a predictive marker for GC chemotherapy in patients with BTC.

e15656 Background: There is little information available about prognostic markers of gemcitabine, cisplatin, and S-1 (GCS) in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer (aBTC). Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in several cancers including aBTC was reported to be a prognostic and/or predictive factor associated with clinical outcomes. There are no data about relation between NLR and clinical outcome in patient with aBTC who underwent GCS. Methods: Baseline demographics and NLR at enrollment were retrospectively evaluated in 119 patients who received GCS treatment in MITSUBA / KHBO1401 randomized phase III trial, which showed significant superiority of GCS to GC. The clinical utility of the NLR was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and the cutoff values for NLR were 3.7. We divided these patients based on estimated NLR, and evaluated the clinicopathological factors and survival in the two groups (NLR ≧ 3.7 or < 3.7). Results: 32 patients were in NLR ≧ 3.7group and 87 patients were in NLR < 3.7 group. The progression-free survival between two groups was not significantly different (p = 0.45). Although, the median overall survival (OS) of NLR ≧ 3.7 group was 10.4 months, while OS of NLR < 3.7 group was 18.5 months (HR 0.55, 95% confidential interval [CI] 0.36-0.87; p = 0.01).The ratio that was able to continue chemotherapy from initial administration six months later was 83.4%of NLR < 3.7 group, and 65.6% of NLR ≧ 3.7 group (p = 0.04). Conclusions: Our study confirmed that high NLR is associated with worse OS, and suggested it may be a predictive marker for GCS chemotherapy in patients with aBTC.

Background. In addition to the clinical parameters, immune-inflammatory markers have emerged as prognostic factors in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer (ABC). The recently proposed A.L.A.N. score combines both in an easily applicable manner. The aim of this study was to perform the first external evaluation of this score. Methods. All patients from our clinical registry unit who had unresectable ABC underwent first-line chemotherapy from 2006 to 2018 and met the inclusion criteria of the original study were included (n =  74). The A.L.A.N. score comprises the following parameters: actual neutrophil count, lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio, albumin, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (A.L.A.N.). Univariate and multivariate hazard regression analyses were performed to evaluate the score’s parameters regarding overall survival (OS). The concordance index (C-index) and integrated Brier score (IBS) were calculated to evaluate the score’s predictive performance. Results. Low, intermediate, and high A.L.A.N. scores corresponded to median OS of 21.9, 11.4, and 4.3 months, respectively, resulting in a significant risk stratification (log-rank p=0.017). In multivariate analysis, a high-risk A.L.A.N. score remained an independent predictor of poor survival (p=0.016). Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio was not a significant factor for poor OS in the analyses in the cohort. The score’s ability to predict individual patient survival was only moderate with a C-index of 0.63. Conclusions. The A.L.A.N. score can be used to identify risk groups with a poor prognosis prior to the start of chemotherapy. However, the ability of the score to predict individual patient outcome was only moderate; thus, it may only serve as a minor component in the complex interdisciplinary discussion.
