AIM: To develop and validate a nomogram model that combines computed tomography (CT)-based radiological factors extracted from deep-learning and clinical factors for the early predictions of immune checkpoint inhibitor-related pneumonitis (ICI-P).
Microsatellite instability (MSI) status is an important prognostic marker for various cancers. Furthermore, because immune checkpoint inhibitors are much more effective in tumors with high level of MSI (MSI-H), MSI status is routinely tested in multi...
Epstein-Barr virus-associated gastric cancer (EBVaGC) shows a robust response to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Therefore, a cost-efficient and accessible tool is needed for discriminating EBV status in patients with gastric cancer. Here we introduce ...
Recently, tumor immunotherapy based on immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) has been introduced and widely adopted for various tumor types. Nevertheless, tumor immunotherapy has a few drawbacks, including significant uncertainty of outcome, the possibi...
OBJECTIVES: To develop and validate a radiomics model for evaluating treatment response to immune-checkpoint inhibitor plus chemotherapy (ICI + CT) in patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).
Cancer immunotherapy provides durable clinical benefit in only a small fraction of patients, and identifying these patients is difficult due to a lack of reliable biomarkers for prediction and evaluation of treatment response. Here, we demonstrate th...
Anti-PD-1 immunotherapy has recently shown tremendous success for the treatment of several aggressive cancers. However, variability and unpredictability in treatment outcome have been observed, and are thought to be driven by patient-specific biology...

OBJECTIVE: Anti-programmed death (PD)-1 therapy confers sustainable clinical benefits for patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but only some patients respond to the treatment. Various clinical characteristics, including the PD-ligand 1 (...
The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in cancer progression and recent evidence has clarified its clinical significance in predicting outcomes and efficacy. However, there are no studies on the systematic analysis of TME characteristi...
This study aimed to use computed tomography (CT) images to assess PD-L1 expression in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and predict response to immunotherapy. We retrospectively analyzed a PD-L1 expression dataset that consisted of 939 consecutive...
