In summary, the PD-L1 biomarker discussed here highlights the importance of understanding the practice of IHC. This can be used to the patients advantage, with appropriate usage. The currently available literature on PD-L1 IHC from a methodologic point of view has not shown that different assays are comparable. The route of laboratory developed test and commercial test validation is the same: challenging and complex. Executing this process along proper methodologic lines is needed to ensure that patients receive the most accurate and representative test outcomes.
总之,这里讨论的 PD-L1 生物标志物强调了理解免疫组织化学实践的重要性。通过适当的使用,这可以使患者受益。从方法学的角度来看,目前关于 PD-L1 IHC 的可用文献并未表明不同的检测方法具有可比性。实验室开发的检测和商业检测的验证途径是相同的:具有挑战性和复杂性。需要沿着适当的方法学路线执行此过程,以确保患者获得最准确和最具代表性的检测结果。
