BACKGROUND: Recent data suggested a role of gut microbiota and antibiotic use on immune checkpoint inhibitors efficacy. We aimed to evaluate the impact of early use of antibiotic (EUA), blood microbiome and plasmatic citrulline (marker of the intestinal barrier) on nivolumab efficacy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).METHODS: We included all consecutive patients with advanced NSCLC treated with nivolumab in our Department between 2014 and 2017. Blood microbiome was analyzed at month (M) M0 and M2. Citrulline rates were evaluated at M0, M2, M4 and M6.RESULTS: Seventy-two patients were included (EUA in 42%). Overall survival (OS) was longer without EUA (median 13.4months) than with EUA (5.1months, p=0.03). Thirty-five patients (49%) had plasma samples available. High citrulline rate (≥20muM) at M0 was associated with tumor response (p=0.084) and clinical benefit (nivolumab >6months) (p=0.002). Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 7.9months (high citrulline) vs 1.6months (low citrulline) (p
