OX40 (TNFRSF4) Tracks Immune Infiltration in Small Cell Lung Cancer and Shows a Cohort-Specific, Non-Replicated Association with the POU2F3/SCLC-P Subtype: A Multi-Source In Silico Analysis
OX40 (TNFRSF4) is a costimulatory T-cell receptor and OX40 agonists are in clinical development, yet its role in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is still to be characterised. We analysed the discovery cohort (n = 77, 48 events), GSE60052 (n = 79 tumours; 48 with survival), GDSC1+GDSC2 (61 SCLC cell lines, 542 drugs) and human SCLC single-cell atlas (77,143 cells from primary and metastatic sites, 20 donors), using Cox models, FDR-controlled correlation, nested-model comparison and deconvolution. High TNFRSF4 showed a …
