Ki-67 expression of CD3+ T cells and DOG-1+ tumour cells was significantly higher in IM-PD and IM-PD/SU-treated groups compared to TKI-naive group (CD3+ T cells, p = 0.02 and p = 0.004, respectively (Fig. 2c); and DOG-1+ tumour cells, p = 0.006 and p = 0.0002, respectively (Fig. 2d)); notably, there was no difference between IM-PD and IM-PD/SU-treated groups. Here, MKI67 is linked to neoplasm.
