Evaluation of Plasma Interleukin-6 in Melanoma Patients as a Prognostic and Checkpoint Immunotherapy Predictive Biomarker
Journal of Investigative Dermatology(2021)
摘要
Treatment of advanced melanoma has been revolutionized by targeted therapy (TT) and immune checkpoint blockade (ICB), but not all patients respond; identification of predictive biomarkers remains a critical need. Our previous investigations showed the circulating level of CRP as an independent melanoma prognostic biomarker (Fang et al., 2017, 2016, 2015). IL-6 is upstream of CRP, induces hepatocyte release of CRP, and is a pleiotropic inflammatory cytokine involved in progression of melanoma (Hoejberg et al., 2012).
