DelveInsight’s ’Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) - Epidemiology Forecast to 2030’ report delivers an in-depth understanding of the disease, historical and forecasted PD-L1 NSCLC epidemiology in the 7MM, i.e., the United States, EU5 (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom), and Japan.

PD-L1 NSCLC Understanding
Lung cancer mainly begins in the lungs, and it may spread to lymph nodes or other organs in the body, such as the brain. However, cancer from other organs may also spread to the lungs. When cancer cells spread from one organ to another, they are called metastases.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer accounted for approximately 85% of all lung cancers. It can be defined as any type of epithelial lung cancer other than SCLC. It is mainly subcategorized into adenocarcinomas, squamous cell carcinomas, large cell carcinomas and several other types that occur less frequently include adenosquamous carcinomas, and sarcomatoid carcinomas. In these subtypes adenocarcinoma accounts for highest number of cases, i.e., approximately 47% followed by Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Large Cell Carcinoma.

There are several mutations associated with NSCLC but the most common are EGFR, KRAS, ROS-1, BRAF, MET, PD-L1 expression and others. Among all the mutations Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1), accounted for approximately 50% of the total cases of NSCLC.

PD-L1 (also known as CD274), is considered an immune checkpoint facilitating anti-tumor suppression of the immune pathway. The expression of PD-L1 is observed on the surface of macrophages, antigen-presenting cells, B and T-lymphocytes, epithelial, muscle and endothelial cells, whereas PD-1 receptor is expressed predominantly by activated cytotoxic T cells. PD-L1 ligand binds to PD-1 receptor on activated T cells and this connection results in suppression of the immune system. PD-L1 have become routinely part of the clinical approach for management of NSCLC where elevated levels of PD-L1 expression observed on the cell surface of cancer cells.
For diagnosis of mutation associated with NSCLC a laboratory test is done to check for certain genes, proteins, or other molecules in a sample of tissue, blood, or other body fluid. Molecular tests check for certain gene or chromosome changes that occur in NSCLC.
