2017-2027 PD-L1 Overexpression in Solid Tumours Forecast in 18 Major Markets - Split by Gender and 5-Year Age Cohort

DUBLIN, October 12, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

The "PD-L1 Overexpression in Solid Tumours Forecast in 18 Major Markets 2017-2027" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

PD-1 is a T-cell immune checkpoint that is involved in the dampening of autoimmunity in the peripheral effector phase of T-cell activation. This leads to a tolerance' of cells expressing PD-L1 (programmed death ligand-1). PD-L1 is expressed normally on a number of different cell types including; placenta, vascular endothelium, pancreatic islet cells, muscle cells, hepatocytes, epithelium, mesenchymal stem cells, B-cells, T-cells, dendritic cells, macrophages and mast cells.

This report provides the current prevalent population for PDL-1 over-expression in cancer populations across 18 Major Markets (USA, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK, Russia, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Japan, China, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, India, South Africa and Australia) split by gender and 5-year age cohort. Along with the current prevalence, the report also contains a disease overview of the risk factors, disease diagnosis and prognosis along with specific variations by geography and ethnicity.

Providing a value-added level of insight from the analysis team, several of the main cancers with PDL-1 over-expression have been quantified and presented alongside the overall prevalence figures.

PDL-1 over-expression is most often associated with the following cancers:

• Bladder
• Breast
• Colorectal Cancer (CRC)
• Hodgkin's Lymphoma
• Kidney
• Liver
• NSCLC
• Melanoma
• Oesophageal
• Pancreatic
• Prostate
• Stomach
