Abstract

Objective

The systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) is an independent prognostic factor for many malignant tumors. However, the value of this factor in patients with clinical T1‐2N0 (cT1‐2N0) oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is still unclear.

Methods

We calculated SIRI of 235 cT1‐2N0 OSCC patients from 2013 to 2017. Multivariate cox regression analysis was applied to verify the prognostic significance of SIRI. Kaplan‐Meier curves were plotted to analyze the overall survival (OS) and disease‐specific survival (DSS) for cT1‐2N0 OSCC patients.

Results

According to the optimal cutoff point of SIRI, we divided cT1‐2N0 OSCC patients into high SIRI group (SIRI ≥ 1.3) and low SIRI group (SIRI < 1.3). SIRI was an independent prognostic indicator for OS (HR = 2.87; 95% CI = 1.35‐6.10; P = 0.006) and DSS (HR = 2.17; 95% CI = 1.10‐4.27; P = 0.025). High SIRI had a significantly poorer OS (P = 0.001) and DSS (P = 0.007) in survival analysis than the low SIRI. Moreover, the prognostic value of SIRI was significantly stronger than neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and monocyte‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (MLR).

Conclusions

Preoperative SIRI can be regarded as a meaningful indicator for poor survival of cT1‐2N0 OSCC patients, and it is a promising tool to formulate the best individualized treatment for high‐risk patients.
