Choice of PD-L1 immunohistochemistry assay influences clinical eligibility for gastric cancer immunotherapy

Abstract

Our findings suggest that scoring PD-L1 CPS with the 28-8 assay may result in higher PD-L1 scores and higher proportion of PD-L1 positivity compared to 22C3 and other assays. Until stronger evidence of inter-assay concordance is found, we urge caution in treating the assays as equivalent.
