Prognostic Role of Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes in Lung Cancer: a Meta-Analysis

Key Points

Key points are not available for this paper at this time.

Abstract

This meta-analysis clarified that high level of CD8+ and CD3+ T cells infiltration in TS or TN, and high CD4+ T lymphocytes infiltration in TS showed better OS in lung cancer patients, whereas high density of FOXP3+ T cells infiltration in TS could be recognized as a negative prognostic factor.
