Method for assisting in identifying PD-L1 expression of colorectal cancer patient by utilizing patient ascites source PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient)

PTC tumor microspheres from ascites originated from colorectal cancer patients were constructed through PTC technology, and the PD-L1 expression level was detected by immunohistochemistry, which solved the problem of low accuracy of PD-L1 detection in ascites samples of colorectal cancer patients, and achieved accurate prediction of patient immunotherapy sensitivity.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for auxiliary identification of PD-L1 expression of a colorectal cancer patient by using a patient ascites-derived tumor-like cell cluster (PTC), and a kit for identifying the PD-L1 expression of the colorectal cancer patient by using the PD-L1 expression of the colorectal cancer patient. PTC is a result of self-assembly and proliferation of tumor cells, primary epithelial cells, interstitial cells, fibroblasts and immune cells, an ascites sample can be utilized to be cultured into tumor microspheres within a short time, and the obtained tumor microspheres have high consistency with original tumors. PD-L1 detection can be provided for patients who cannot obtain tissue slices by utilizing the PTC derived from malignant effusion of colorectal cancer patients, and the feasibility of receiving immunotherapy is provided for the patients.
