PD-Adaptive Resistance to Immunotherapy Anti–PD-1 Anti–PD-L1 Tumor cell Interferons • PD-L1 can be expressed on tumor cells either endogenously or induced by association with T cells (adaptive immune resistance)[1,2] – PD-1:PD-L1 interaction results in T cell suppression (anergy, exhaustion, death) • In RCC, melanoma, and other tumors, PD-L1 expression has been shown to be associated with adverse clinical/pathologic features, eg, more aggressive disease and shorter survival[3] 1.
