  •   Objective  To explore the efficacy and prognostic value of prognostic nutrition index (PNI), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in advanced gastric cancer (AGC) treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs).  Methods  A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 75 AGC patients who received ICIs treatment at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical College from June 2019 to January 2022. The ROC curve was used to calculate the optimal cutoff values for PNI, NLR, and PLR. Kaplan-Meier curves was plotted, and cox regression analysis was used to predict the independent risk factors affecting overall survival (OS) in AGC.  Results  The best cutoff values for PNI, NLR0, PLR0, and PLR4 were 36.00, 3.45, 186.65, and 138.23, respectively. The objective response rate (ORR) of high PNI group and low PLR0 group were higher. The disease control rate (DCR) of high PNI group, low NLR0 group, low PLR0 group and low PLR4 group were higher, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that PNI, NLR0, PLR0, PLR4, BMI and stage were correlated with OS. Multivariate analysis showed that PLR0 was an independent risk factor for OS (HR=3.539, 95% CI: 1.717-7.296, P<0.001) and PFS (HR=4.556, 95% CI: 1.955-10.617, P<0.001) except stage.  Conclusion  Detection of PNI, NLR0, PLR0, and PLR4 has clinical guiding value for the efficacy and prognosis of AGC after ICIs treatment.
