This article discusses a promising diagnostic approach aimed at improving patient selection for immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapies, particularly in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The current reliance on PD-L1 immunohistochemistry (IHC) as a biomarker has limited sensitivity and specificity.

This study analyzed pregnancy outcomes in female lung transplant (LuT) recipients, focusing on modifiable factors that could improve outcomes. Using data from the Transplant Pregnancy Registry International (TPRI), the study included 53 women who reported 72 pregnancies after LuT between 1991 and 2021.
