We analyzed the association between sTIM-3 and overall survival (OS), tumor response, and common clinical and biological factors in two mccRCC cohorts treated with anti-PD-1 (nivolumab, n = 27), anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-1 + anti-CTLA-4 (nivolumab + ipilimumab – N + I, n = 124). Here, PDCD1 is linked to neoplasm.
