Here, we have used multiplex immunohistochemistry and digital image analysis to characterize TAM immunophenotypes with regard to expression of checkpoint molecules programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO-1) from the diagnostic tumor tissue samples of 130 cHL patients, and correlated the findings with clinical characteristics and survival. The gene discussed is IDO1; the disease is neoplasm.
