Prognostic impact of PD-1 and its ligands in renal cell carcinoma

Abstract

Programmed death-1 receptor (PD-1) and programmed death-1 receptor-ligand (PD-L1) have been suggested to play a role as prognostic markers in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The association between PD-L1 and prognosis seems to be more robust than for PD-1. Further, preliminary analyses suggest that neither PD-1 nor its ligands play a role as prognostic markers in non-clear cell RCC, while the prognostic role of PD-L2 in ccRCC as well as in non-clear cell RCC remains unclear.
