Note. SIRI groups: SIRI-1, stage IIIB and SIRI < 1.9; SIRI-2, stage IIIB and SIRI ≥ 1.9 or stage IIIC and SIRI < 1.9; SIRI-3, stage IIIC and SIRI ≥ 1.9. Abbreviations. PFS: progression-free survival; OS: overall survival; KPS: Karnofsky performance score; SCC: squamous cell carcinoma; AC: adenocarcinoma; T: tumor; N: node; SIRI: systemic inflammation response index.
