Abstract

PURPOSE: Currently, chemoimmunotherapy is effective only in a subset of patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer. Robust biomarkers for predicting the efficacy of chemoimmunotherapy would be useful to identify patients who would benefit from chemoimmunotherapy. The primary objective of our study was to develop an artificial intelligence-based immunoscore and to evaluate the value of patho-immunoscore in predicting clinical outcomes in patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
