Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths and represents a substantial disease burden worldwide. Immune checkpoint inhibitors combined with chemotherapy are the standard first-line therapy for advanced NSCLC without driver mutations. Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) is currently the only approved immunotherapy marker. PD-L1 detection methods are diverse and have developed rapidly in recent years, such as improved immunohistochemical detection methods, the application of liquid biopsy in PD-L1 detection, genetic testing, radionuclide imaging, and the use of machine learning methods to construct PD-L1 prediction models. This review focuses on the detection methods and challenges of PD-L1 from different sources, and discusses the influencing factors of PD-L1 detection and the value of combined biomarkers. Provide support for clinical screening of immunotherapy-advantage groups and formulation of personalized treatment decisions.
非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)是癌症相关死亡的主要原因,也是全球范围内的重大疾病负担。对于没有驱动基因突变的晚期 NSCLC,免疫检查点抑制剂联合化疗是标准的一线治疗方法。程序性死亡配体 1(PD-L1)是目前唯一被批准的免疫治疗标志物。PD-L1 的检测方法多种多样,近年来发展迅速,如改良的免疫组织化学检测方法、液体活检在 PD-L1 检测中的应用、基因检测、放射性核素成像以及使用机器学习方法构建 PD-L1 预测模型。本文重点讨论了来自不同来源的 PD-L1 的检测方法和挑战,并讨论了 PD-L1 检测的影响因素和联合生物标志物的价值。为临床筛选免疫治疗优势人群和制定个体化治疗决策提供支持。
