Abstract excerpt
Abstract Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression on malignant cells is a dominant immune escape mechanism across a variety of human cancers. A unique genetic mechanism underlying PD-L1 upregulation has been uncovered in classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), in which copy gains of the chromosomal region (9p24.1) containing the programmed death-1 (PD-1) ligands PD-L1 and PD-L2 are recurrently observed. While...
