TIDE is a reliable surrogate biomarker that could accurately predict immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) response by measuring the tumor immune escape, and it even performed better than PD-L1 expression in melanoma; that is, a higher TIDE score is associated with worse ICB response and worse patient survival under anti-PD1 and anti-CTLA4 therapies (90). The gene discussed is PDCD1; the disease is neoplasm.
