ABSTRACT
With a rapidly developing immunotherapeutic landscape for patients with metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma, biomarkers of efficacy are highly desirable to guide treatment strategy. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained slides are inexpensive and widely available in pathology laboratories, including in resource-poor settings. Here, H&E scoring of tumor-infiltrating immune cells (TILplus) in pre-treatment tumor specimens using light microscopy is associated with improved overall survival (OS) in three independent cohorts of patients receiving immune checkpoint blockade. Necrosis score alone does not associate with OS; however, necrosis modifies the predictive effect of TILplus, a finding that has broad translational relevance for tissue-based biomarker development. PBRM1 mutational status is combined with H&E scores to further refine outcome predictions (OS, p = 0.007, and objective response, p = 0.04). These findings bring H&E assessment to the fore for biomarker development in future prospective, randomized trials, and emerging multi-omics classifiers.
