BACKGROUND: Systemic inflammation may influence the response to systemic chemotherapy or the prognosis in patients with various cancers. The Naples prognostic score, based on inflammatory and nutritional statuses, is a useful prognostic marker in patients undergoing surgery for colorectal cancer; however, its significance in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of the Naples prognostic factor in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer receiving first-line chemotherapy and to compare its prognostic accuracy with the neutrophil:lymphocyte ratio, platelet:lymphocyte ratio, and the systemic immune-inflammatory index. DESIGN: This was a retrospective study of prospectively collected data. SETTINGS: This study was conducted at a university hospital. PATIENTS: A total of 259 patients received first-line systemic chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The Naples prognostic score was calculated by a composite score of albumin and cholesterol concentrations, lymphocyte:monocyte ratio, and neutrophil:lymphocyte ratio. The patients were divided into 3 groups based on increasing Naples scores (groups 0-2), and the associations of the Naples prognostic score with clinicopathologic features and overall survival were evaluated. RESULTS: Higher Naples prognostic score was positively associated with right-sided primary tumors and synchronous metastases and negatively with primary tumor resection. Patients in group 2 (high Naples prognostic score) had significantly shorter overall survival than those in groups 0 and 1 (p = 0.012 and 0.022). Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified the Naples prognostic score as an independent prognostic factor for overall survival (HR = 1.574; p = 0.004). Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that Naples prognostic score was more sensitive than other prognostic factors for predicting overall survival. LIMITATIONS: The main limitations are the sample size, single institutional feature, and treatment heterogeneity. CONCLUSIONS: The Naples prognostic score may be a useful prognostic marker in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer receiving systemic chemotherapy.
