PD-L1 expression and survival in p16-negative and -positive squamous  cell carcinomas of the vulva.

CONCLUSION: Our data demonstrate that PD-L1 expression is frequent in SCCV and independent from p16 status. High PD-L1 expression was associated with an unfavorable outcome whereas p16-positivity turned out to be an independent positive prognostic factor.
