VEGFA and non-small cell lung carcinoma: Untreated NSCLC patients had increased levels of various cytokines and chemokines, like IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, CCL5, G-CSF, ICAM-1, TNF-RI and VEGF (fold change [FC]=1.4-261, p=0.026-9x10-7) compared to age-matched controls, many of which fell under ICT (FC=0.2-0.6, p=0.014-0.002), but not under IO monotherapy.
