Abstract

The present study aimed to investigate the clinicopathological significance of programmed cell death ligand‑1 (PD‑L1) and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD‑1) expression in extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC). PD‑L1 and PD‑1 expression was detected by immunohistochemical methods in 70 ECC formalin‑fixed, paraffin‑embedded tissue specimens and 50 para‑carcinoma tissue specimens. The associations of PD‑L1 and PD‑1 expression with clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of ECC patients were explored. Positive rates of PD‑L1 and PD‑1 expression were increased in ECC tissues compared with those in the corresponding para‑carcinoma tissues. Besides, the expression of PD‑L1 was correlated with the expression of PD‑1 (P<0.05). Statistical analysis revealed that the expression of PD‑L1 and PD‑1 in ECC tissues exhibited no correlation with patient age, sex or histological grade, but was significantly correlated with tumor‑node‑metastasis (TNM) stage and lymphatic metastasis. Univariate analysis demonstrated that PD‑L1 expression, PD‑1 expression, TNM stage and lymphatic metastasis were significantly associated with the survival time of patients. Further multivariate analysis revealed the PD‑L1 expression was an independent prognostic factor of patients with ECC. These preliminary results suggested that PD‑L1 or PD‑1 immunodetection may be a valuable prognostic marker for ECC patients, and that PD‑L1 immunodetection may be used as an independent factor to evaluate the prognosis of ECC patients.
