ABSTRACT
The possibility of the preoperative level of 42 indicators characterizing the cellular composition and metabolism in blood of patients with stage III lung adenocarcinoma (AC) to predict their relapse-free survival was studied. Blood samples of 451 patients with newly diagnosed AK stage III after their surgical treatment (resection volume - R0) have been investigated. The duration of the relapse-free period (period of observation - 1 year), cellular composition of the blood, concentration of C-RP, albumin, Cyfra 21-1 antigens, SCC, TPA, chemokines CXCL5, CXCL8, pyruvate kinase TuM2 PK isoenzyme, HIF-1α and hyaluronic acid in blood serum so as the proportion of blood cells with CXCR1 and CXCR2, CD44V6 receptors in blood serum were measured. To determine the dependence of the duration of the relapse-free period after the treatment on the observation time, Kaplan-Meier graphs were built. The relationship between the determined parameters and survival was judged using single- and multi-factor Cox proportional hazard models. Comparison of groups with different risk of AK recurrence was performed using the Log Rank test and χ2. The assessment of the predictive information content of laboratory tests was carried out using ROC analysis. It was shown that the concentration of monocytes, eosinophilic leukocytes, the relative quantity of lymphocytes with CXCR1 receptor, the level of Cyfra 21-1 before surgical treatment were associated with the duration of the relapse-free period. A regression equation was compiled, which included the level of Cyfra 21-1, relative content of lymphocytes with CXCR1, and the eosinophilic leukocytes / monocytes ratio. Based on the threshold value Y=0,597, a Kaplan-Meier plot of patient survival was built and the results of it correspond to the TNM stratification. The prognostic sensitivity of the results of the equation - 85,7%, the specificity - 94,7%.
