Abstract excerpt
Lungs are among the most common sites for development of both primary and metastatic carcinomas. Tumor cells expression (TC) of PD-L1 is an important predictor of the of response to immune check-point inhibition in NSCLC, while the composition of the immune cells (IC) in the tumor microenvironment including PD-L1+ cells is believed to predict responses in tumors of some other primary sites. Total mutational load...
