Table 3 Correlation between the mRNA level of PD-L1, TILs level, PD-L1 immunoscore in tumour cell, PD-L1 immunoscore in TILs and total PD-L1 immunoscore in tumour cells and TILs among 39 patients with fresh tissue*
Immunoscore of PD-L1 on tumour cells | Immunoscore of PD-L1 on TILs | Total immunoscore of PD-L1 on both tumour cells and TILs | mRNA level of PD-L1 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
TILs level | 0.494** (p = 0.001) | 0.648 (p < 0.001) | 0.662 (p < 0.001) | 0.532 (p < 0.001) |
Immunoscore of PD-L1 on tumour cells | 0.500 (p = 0.001) | 0.764 (p < 0.001) | 0.404 (p = 0.011) | |
Immunoscore of PD-L1 on TILs | 0.917 (p < 0.001) | 0.348 (p = 0.030) | ||
Total immunoscore of PD-L1 on tumour cells and TILs | 0.469 (p = 0.003) |
