What is it about?

IMDC score is an effective tool for Kidney cancer to estimate prognosis and select treatment. In the immunotherapy era, the IMDC score has a predictive effect by combining TKI and immunotherapy. We try to evaluate the prognostic effect of IMDC score in Malignant melanoma and showed the different survival in favorable, intermediate, and poor risk groups.
