Interferon gamma, an important marker of response to immune checkpoint blockade in non-small cell lung cancer and melanoma patients
Background: Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) may be induced by oncogenic signals or can be upregulated via interferon gamma (IFN-y). We have explored whether the expression of IFNG, the gene encoding IFN-y, is associated with clinical response to the immune checkpoint blockade in non-small cell lun...

| Sumario: | Background: Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) may be induced by oncogenic signals or can be upregulated via interferon gamma (IFN-y). We have explored whether the expression of IFNG, the gene encoding IFN-y, is associated with clinical response to the immune checkpoint blockade in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and melanoma patients. The role of inflammation-associated transcription factors STAT3, IKBKE, STAT1 and other associated genes has also been examined. |
