Abstract:Background:
The prognostic significance of tumoral programmed death-ligand 2 (
PD-L2
) expression in urothelial bladder cancer (UBCs) is under-investigated , although it can potentially to become a regulatory agent of cancer immunity. In the search for supporting biomarkers, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) as a readily available surrogate marker of immune status has been associated with clinical outcomes and other prognostic factors in various types of cancer.
