Method and system for predicting response to immune checkpoint inhibitor

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method, performed by at least one computing device, for predicting a response to an immune checkpoint inhibitor. The method includes receiving a first pathology slide image, detecting one or more target items in the first pathology slide image, determining at least one of an immune phenotype of at least some regions in the first pathology slide image or information associated with the immune phenotype based on the detection result for the one or more target items, and generating a prediction result as to whether or not a patient associated with the first pathology slide image responds to the immune checkpoint inhibitor, based on the immune phenotype of the at least some regions in the first pathology slide image or the information associated with the immune phenotype.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
