Abstract
This study verified the CRT-induced immunologic shift toward increases in PD-L1 expression and density of CD8+ TILs in rectal cancer patients. The alteration profiles of checkpoint-related molecules identified the patients with poor prognosis, suggesting potential candidates who can benefit from combining CRT and checkpoint inhibitors.
