DR-094 RNA (immune) markers in non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (RIMINI)

Immunotherapy can achieve great results for NSCLC patients, yet this costly therapy is only efficient in a small number of patients. Our goal is to see whether RNA data, being a level closer to the proteins produced than DNA, can be used to identify which patients will respond. To do so, we plan to combine RNA expression data with clinical data. RNA data to identify which genes are relevant, and clinical data to minimize confounding by other factors and ofcourse to identify responders and non responders.
