Heterogeneous programmed death-ligand 1 expression in gastric cancer: comparison of tissue microarrays and whole sections

Abstract Background Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression determines the eligibility for anti-PD-1 treatment in patients with advanced gastric cancer, but evidence indicates that PD-L1 staining is heterogeneous. Patients who are ineligible for radical surgery could be tested for PD-L1 express...
