Deep Learning of CT Imaging Predicts PD-L1 Expression and Immunotherapy Response in Metastatic NSCLC: A Multi-Center Study.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) benefit only a subset of patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but current selection relies on tissue PD-L1 immunohistochemistry (IHC), which is invasive and prone to sampling bias. We developed and validated SCENT (Scalable Ensemble Transformer), a CT-based deep learning model for noninvasive prediction of PD-L1 status and immunotherapy o...

Mapping the TCR landscape: computational tools empowering translational immunology and therapy design.

T cell receptors (TCRs) are central to adaptive immunity, yet their vast sequence and structural diversity present a significant challenge to fully understand immune responses. The application of high-throughput sequencing technologies, including bulk and single-cell approaches, generates vast datasets of TCR repertoire information, requiring advanced computational tools for meaningful analysis. H...

Inferring translational efficiency from transcriptomes improves noncanonical neoantigen prioritization and cancer patient stratification.

Accurate assessment of protein translation is crucial for understanding disease variant functions, but mRNA-protein discrepancy limits transcriptomics...

Machine learning algorithms develop a tumor-educated platelets-related gene signature to predict colorectal cancer prognosis and therapy response.

Tumor-educated platelets (TEPs) have recently emerged as an important component of liquid biopsy, yet the clinical relevance in colorectal cancer (CRC...
