Elevated PD1+ NK cell levels, reduced lysis of PDL1-expressing CRC cells and improved NK cell activation in combination with the PDL1-targeting avelumab indicate that the PD1-PDL1 axis contributes to impaired cetuximab-induced NK cell function. Together, these optimized assays effectively identify NK cell dysfunctions in mCRC patients and offer potential for broader application in evaluating NK cell functionality across cancers and therapeutic settings.

OSCC arising in never-smokers/never-drinkers exhibit heightened PD-1/PD-L1 signaling, suggesting potential efficacy of immune checkpoint therapy in this subgroup of tumors.

These findings indicate that elevated PD-1 expression on TILs can be associated with immune evasion during the early stages of malignancy evolution in the NSCLC setting and further research is required to further delineate the role of PD-1/PD-L1 pathway on tumor immune senescence. These results underline the potential role of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in the treatment of early-stage NSCLC.

in AML patients, there is upregulation in PD-1, which indicates that PD-1 is a possible biomarker for AML. PD-1 rs36084323 G/A may have a role in AML risk.

In our cohort, the patients with CLL expressed elevated levels of PD-1 and CTLA-4 immune checkpoints on activated and memory B cell subsets. However, there was no correlation between these immune checkpoint expressions and B2M levels.

Targeting this axis could serve as a potential therapeutic strategy to enhance the clinical outcomes of DLBCL patients. Further studies are necessary to explore the prognostic implications of PD-1 and sPD-L1 expression levels in DLBCL patients.

Our results provide the first evidence that Rab37 small GTPase mediates trafficking and membrane presentation of PD-1 to sustain T cell exhaustion, and the tumor promoting function of Rab37/PD-1 axis in T cells of TME in lung cancer. The expression profile of Rab37high/PD-1high/TIM3high in tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells is a biomarker for poor prognosis in lung cancer patients.

Importantly, patients harboring higher numbers of CD3CD8PD-1 T-cells together with PD-L1CTCs had a survival advantage when receiving front-line immunotherapy. Thus, this study proposes, for first time possible, immune cell-CTCs interaction, as well as a potential novel clinical biomarker for ICI responses in ES-SCLC patients.

Our analysis shows that RRP tissue shows elevated levels of multiple immune check point targets and VEGFR3, with varied patterns unique to each papilloma patient. Some of these immune checkpoint markers already have novel immunotherapies available or in development, providing molecular rationale to offer these systemic treatments to selected patients affected by RRP alongside VEGF inhibitors.

Dysfunctional TILs and imbalanced immune mediators contribute to therapeutic insufficiency, shedding light on local and systemic immune interplay. Our study informs immunological signatures for treatment prediction and CC prognosis.

Elevated PD-1 expression on peripheral T cells is associated with increased risk of HCC progression and shorter time to progression in bridging/downstaging to transplant HCC patients undergoing first-cycle Y. Treatment-induced lymphopenia was not associated with treatment response, or increased progression risk, suggesting this anticipated adverse event does not impact short-term HCC outcomes.
