Increased infiltration of M2-macrophages, T-cells and PD-L1 expression in high grade leiomyosarcomas supports immunotherapeutic strategies

Background: Immunotherapy may be a rational strategy in leiomyosarcoma (LMS), a tumor known for its genomic complexity. As a prerequisite for therapeutic applications, we characterized the immune microenvironment in LMS, as well as its prognostic value. Methods: CD163+ macrophages, CD3+ T-cells, PD-...
