Absence of PD-L1 expression on tumor cells in the context of an activated immune infiltrate may indicate impaired IFNγ signaling in non-small cell lung cancer.

Absence of PD-L1 expression on tumor cells in the context of an activated immune infiltrate may indicate impaired IFNγ signaling in non-small cell lung cancer.

<h4>Background</h4>In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), PD-L1 expression on either tumor cells (TC) or both TC and tumor-infiltrating immune cells (IC) is currently the most used biomarker in cancer immunotherapy. However, the mechanisms involved in PD-L1 regulation are not fully under...
