Increased expression of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) in human pituitary tumors [PDF]
PURPOSE: Subsets of pituitary tumors exhibit an aggressive clinical courses and recur despite surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Because modulation of the immune response through inhibition of T-cell checkpoints has led to durable clinical responses ...

Relationship between protein biomarkers of chemotherapy response and microsatellite status, tumor mutational burden and PD-L1 expression in cancer patients. [PDF]
Chemotherapy and checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapies are increasingly used in combinations. We determined associations between the presence of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapeutic biomarkers and protein markers of potential chemotherapy response.

Posttranslational Modifications in PD-L1 Turnover and Function: From Cradle to Grave
Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) is one of the most classic immune checkpoint molecules. Cancer cells express PD-L1 to inhibit the activity of effector T cells’ cytotoxicity through programmed death 1 (PD-1) engagement in exposure to inflammatory ...

Noninvasive Imaging of Tumor PD-L1 Expression Using Radiolabeled Anti–PD-L1 Antibodies [PDF]
Abstract Antibodies that block the interaction between programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and PD-1 have shown impressive antitumor activity. Patients with tumors expressing PD-L1 are most likely to respond to this treatment. The aim of our study was to develop a noninvasive imaging technique to determine tumor PD-L1 expression in vivo ...

Expression of TIM3/VISTA checkpoints and the CD68 macrophage-associated marker correlates with anti-PD1/PDL1 resistance: implications of immunogram heterogeneity. [PDF]
Although immunotherapies have achieved remarkable salutary effects among subgroups of advanced cancers, most patients do not respond. We comprehensively evaluated biomarkers associated with the "cancer-immunity cycle" in the pan-cancer setting in order ...

Monitoring PD-L1 positive circulating tumor cells in non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with the PD-1 inhibitor Nivolumab [PDF]
Controversial results on the predictive value of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) status in lung tumor tissue for response to immune checkpoint inhibitors do not allow for any conclusive consideration.

The effect of PD-L1 testing on the cost-effectiveness and economic impact of immune checkpoint inhibitors for the second-line treatment of NSCLC [PDF]
Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors improve outcomes compared with chemotherapy in lung cancer. Tumor PD-L1 receptor expression is being studied as a predictive biomarker. The objective of this study was to assess the cost-effectiveness and economic

Tumor extracellular vesicles mediate anti-PD-L1 therapy resistance by decoying anti-PD-L1
Abstract PD-L1 + tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (TEVs) cause systemic immunosuppression and possibly resistance to anti-PD-L1 antibody (αPD-L1) blockade. However, whether and how PD-L1 + TEVs mediate αPD-L1 therapy resistance is ...

PD‐L1 methylation regulates PD‐L1 expression and is associated with melanoma survival [PDF]
AbstractThe aim of this study is to determine the significance of programmed death ligand 1 (PD‐L1 or CD274) methylation in relation to PD‐L1 expression and survival in melanoma. Despite the clinical importance of therapies targeting the PD‐1/PD‐L1 immune checkpoint in melanoma, factors regulating PD‐L1 expression, including epigenetic mechanisms, are ...

Evaluation of PD-L1 expression on vortex-isolated circulating tumor cells in metastatic lung cancer. [PDF]
Metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a highly fatal and immunogenic malignancy. Although the immune system is known to recognize these tumor cells, one mechanism by which NSCLC can evade the immune system is via overexpression of programmed ...
