We analyzed transcriptomic profile of NSCLC lung adenocarcinoma cohort of TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas), stratifying tumors based on EMT (Epithelial mesenchymal Transition) score; in parallel, we investigated the activation of Ido-1 pathway and modulation of immune cytokines productions both in NSCLC cells lines, in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and in ex-vivo NSCLC spheroids induced by triple inhibition with an anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody, the MEK inhibitor and the Ido-1 inhibitor. This evidence concerns the gene MAP2K7 and non-small cell lung carcinoma.
