Defining the tumor microenvironment of non‐small cell lung cancer
The tumor microenvironment (TME) in non‐small cell lung cancer is highly heterogeneous, both at a patient level and tumor microenvironment resolution. Defining the tumor microenvironment from patient‐responders and non‐responders will aid in the development of targeted therapeutics specific for each individual patient.
