Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is more aggressive than other breast cancer subtypes. TNBC is characterized by increased expression of Programmed Death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), a signal used by many tumors to escape the immune response. Expression of PD-L1 is a positive predictor of response to immunotherapy; therefore, it should be investigated in TNBC in order to select patients who may benefit from anti-PD-L1 therapies. While many PD-L1 assays are available, only the VENTANA platform with the anti-PD-L1 (SP142) antibody is licensed as a companion diagnostic device for selecting patients with metastatic/advanced TNBC who are candidates for treatment with atezolizumab. In this article, we provide a summary of an expert round-table discussion about PD-L1 testing, using the SP142 antibody in metastatic TNBC.
三阴性乳腺癌(TNBC)比其他乳腺癌亚型更具侵袭性。TNBC 的特征是程序性死亡配体 1(PD-L1)的表达增加,许多肿瘤利用 PD-L1 来逃避免疫反应。PD-L1 的表达是对免疫疗法反应的阳性预测指标;因此,应该在 TNBC 中进行调查,以便选择可能受益于抗 PD-L1 治疗的患者。虽然有许多 PD-L1 检测方法,但只有 VENTANA 平台上的抗 PD-L1(SP142)抗体被许可作为选择转移性/晚期 TNBC 患者的伴随诊断设备,这些患者适合接受阿特珠单抗治疗。在本文中,我们提供了一个专家圆桌讨论的总结,内容是关于使用 SP142 抗体检测转移性 TNBC 中的 PD-L1。
