Aly-Khan Lalani, MD, genitourinary oncology fellow, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, discusses neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio in renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

The ratio of neutrophil to lymphocytes was compared in a study of patients with RCC treated with immunotherapy.

Neutrophils reflect the inflammatory cascade in patients with cancer, says Lalani, and lymphocytes are an important antitumor agent.
