A recent retrospective study examined PD-1 mRNA expression in 10,078 tumor samples representing 34 different cancer types from TCGA and found a significant correlation between PD-1 mRNA and the ORR following anti-PD-1 monotherapy, while PD-L1 tumor expression by IHC or the percentage of TILs were not found to be associated with the response [104]. This evidence concerns the gene CD274 and neoplasm.
