CD8 PD-1 T-cells and PD-L1 circulating tumor cells in chemotherapy-naïve non-small cell lung cancer: towards their clinical relevance?

CD8 PD-1 T-cells and PD-L1 circulating tumor cells in chemotherapy-naïve non-small cell lung cancer: towards their clinical relevance?

Background: Since tumor cells may escape from immune surveillance through the programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)/programmed death ligand (PD-L)1 axis, this study was designed in order to evaluate whether there is a correlation between the levels of PD-1 + and PD-L1 + -expressing immune cells (ICs) and c...
