PD-L1 Expression by Two Complementary Diagnostic Assays and mRNA In Situ Hybridization in Small Cell Lung Cancer

TLDR
A subset of SCLCs is characterized by positive PD‐L1 and/or mRNA expression in tumor cells, and higher PD‐ L1 and mRNA expression correlate with more infiltration of TIICs.

Precision medicine for urothelial bladder cancer: update on tumour genomics and immunotherapy

TL;DR: Several immune checkpoint inhibitors that target programmed cell death protein 1, its ligand PDL1, and cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA4) have already been approved for use in bladder cancer, representing the most important change to the urological oncologist's tool-kit in over a decade.

A phase Ib study of pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy in patients with advanced cancer (PembroPlus)

TL;DR: Standard dose P can be safely combined with G, G+NP, G+, G+V, I and LD and evaluation to determine if response and duration of response are more robust than what would be expected for chemotherapy or immunotherapy alone requires further validation.
