The Role of Molecular Profiling to Predict the Response to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Lung Cancer
10 Feb 2019
Abstract excerpt
Immune checkpoint inhibitors radically changed the treatment of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, only one-quarter of patients benefit from these new therapies when used as monotherapy. The assessment of Program Death Ligand-1 (PD-L1) tumor expression by immunohistochemistry is used to select potential responder patients, but this not an optimal marker since it does not predict the...
