Abstract 1669: Immunometabolism of circulating neutrophils in hyperprogressive disease (HPD) upon first-line PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors (ICI) alone or in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy (PCT) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients (pts)

Background: HPD has been described in 14-26% of NSCLC pts upon single agent ICI and correlates with poor survival. Currently, HPD occurrence has not been explored upon ICI-PCT and biomarkers of HPD are lacking. Although high circulating neutrophils (Ns) correlated with HPD in NSCLC pts, the role of specific Ns subsets is unknown. Methods: NSCLC pts treated with 1st line ICI as single agent or in combination with PCT were assessed for HPD and...
