We report the ability of two deep learning-based decision systems to stratify non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with checkpoint inhibitor therapy into two distinct survival groups. Both systems analyze functional and morphological properties of epithelial regions in digital histopathology whole slide images stained with the SP263 PD-L1 antibody. The first system learns to replicate the pathologist assessment of the Tumor Cell (TC) score with a cut-point for positivity at 25% for patient stratification. The second system is free from assumptions related to TC scoring and directly learns patient stratification from the overall survival time and event information. Both systems are built on a novel unpaired domain adaptation deep learning solution for epithelial region segmentation. This approach significantly reduces the need for large pixel-precise manually annotated datasets while superseding serial sectioning or re-staining of slides to obtain ground truth by cytokeratin staining. The capacity of the first system to replicate the TC scoring by pathologists is evaluated on 703 unseen cases, with an addition of 97 cases from an independent cohort. Our results show Lin's concordance values of 0.93 and 0.96 against pathologist scoring, respectively. The ability of the first and second system to stratify anti-PD-L1 treated patients is evaluated on 151 clinical samples. Both systems show similar stratification powers (first system: HR = 0.539, p = 0.004 and second system: HR = 0.525, p = 0.003) compared to TC scoring by pathologists (HR = 0.574, p = 0.01).
