In this special series of Translational Lung Cancer Research about “Immunotherapy in other thoracic malignancies and uncommon populations”, a group of renowned international specialists involved in the management of thoracic malignancies present a comprehensive and timely review of state-of-the-art of ICI in thoracic malignancies, discussing the lights and shadows of ICIs, either in under-represented patients with NSCLC in clinical trials, as well as the efficacy of ICIs in thoracic malignancies other than NSCLC.
