Machine learning model uses clinical and genomic data to predict immune checkpoint blockade effectiveness
by Cleveland Clinic Credit: CC0 Public Domain A computer model developed by Cleveland Clinic oncologist Timothy Chan, MD, Ph.D., and colleagues accurately predicts whether immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) will be effective in patients diagnosed with a wide variety of cancers. The forecasting tool, developed using machine learning, assesses multiple biological and clinical variables in an individual...
