Abstract

Anti-PD-(L)1 therapy has shown great efficacy in some patients with cancer. However, a significant proportion of patients with cancer do not respond to it. Another unmet clinical need for anti-PD-(L)1 therapy is the dynamic monitoring of treatment effects. Therefore, identifying biomarkers that can stratify potential responders before PD-(L)1 treatment and timely monitoring of the efficacy of PD-(L)1 treatment are crucial in the clinical setting. The identification of biomarkers by liquid biopsy has attracted considerable attention. Among the identified biomarkers, circulating T cells are one of the most promising because of their indispensable contribution to anti-PD-(L)1 therapy. The present review aimed to thoroughly explore the potential of circulating T cells as biomarkers of anti-PD-(L)1 therapy and its advantages and limitations.
