Programmed death-ligand 1 expression in carcinoma of unknown primary

We examined the expression of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) in carcinoma of unknown primary (CUP) and its potential implications. Tissue microarrays were constructed for 72 CUP cases (histologic subtypes: 22 adenocarcinoma, 15 poorly differentiated carcinoma, 19 squamous cell carcinoma, and 14 undifferentiated carcinoma; clinical subtype: favorable type 17 [23.6
