Abstract
Clinical indications for immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy are rapidly expanding for various stages of several solid tumors. The success of ICIs results from a complex interplay between cancer cells and their immune microenvironment. PD-1/PD-L1 PET imaging enables to study of these interactions in the tumor microenvironment in a clinical setting. These noninvasive, sensitive and quantitative tools may play an important role in optimizing ICI efficacy.Entities:
