The Role of Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio, Platelet-Lymphocyte Ratio, and Platelets in the Prognosis of Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma.

CONCLUSION: Elevated pretreatment NLR, PLR, PLT, and neutrophil count are associated with shorter OS and PFS in patients with mRCC. NLR and PLR are independent prognostic factors for OS. However, PLR and neutrophil count are independent prognostic factors for PFS. PMID: 31048577 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
