Abstract

Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) are crucial for the success of immunotherapy, and their density can predict prognosis. It has now been shown that computer-based analysis of the spatial organization of TILs adds prognostic value in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer, possibly improving the treatment algorithm to prevent recurrence.<i>See related article by Corredor et al., p. 1526</i>.
