Abstract
PD-L1 expression in TMAs correlates moderately well with that in the corresponding surgical specimens, indicating that evaluating PD-L1 expression in diagnostic biopsy specimens could be misleading in defining sensitivity to pembrolizumab treatment yet may be reliable as a way to exclude patients with a PD-L1 TPS less than 50% from first-line pembrolizumab treatment.
