Biagio Ricciuti: Insightful discussions at Rome Lung 24

Biagio Ricciuti shared a post by Stephen Liu on X and added:

“Had a great time and insightful discussions at Rome Lung 24 reviewing biomarkers for ICI efficacy in NSCLC.

With a stellar faculty Jordi Remon, Solange Peters, Francesco Passiglia, Christian Rolfo, Tony Mok, Stephen Liu, Fred Hirsch, Federico Cappuzzo, Roberto Ferrara, Benjamin Besse and many others!”

Quoting Stephen Liu’s post:

“Dr. Biagio Ricciuti summarizes immunotherapy biomarkers at Rome Lung 24. PDL1 expression is still our best biomarker: higher the better. TMB plays a role but higher cutoffs predict better. STK11/KEAP1 predict poor outcomes with PDL1 but targeting CTLA4 can potentially overcome.”
