Comparison between conventional and immune-related response criteria

WHO IrRC RECIST 1.0 RECIST 1.1 IrRECIST iRECIST
Definition of target No minimum lesion size; should be measurable in two dimensions No minimum lesion size; should be measurable in two dimensions >10 mm in long-axis >10 mm in long-axis for non-nodal lesions and >15 mm in short-axis for lymph nodes >10 mm in long-axis for non-nodal lesions and >15 mm in short-axis for lymph nodes >10 mm in long-axis for non-nodal lesions and >15 mm in short-axis for lymph nodes
Max. no. of targets N/A 15 (10 visceral + 5 cutaneous) 10 5 5 5
No. of targets per organ N/A 5 5 2 2 2
Tumour burden SPD SPD SLD SOD (short-axis for lymph nodes) SOD (short-axis for lymph nodes) SOD (short-axis for lymph nodes)
New lesions Number N/A 15 lesions in total (10 visceral + 5 cutaneous), 5 per organ N/A N/A 5 lesions in total (2 per organ) 5 lesions in total (2 per organ)
Size N/A ≥5 × 5 mm N/A N/A ≥10 mm in long-axis (15 mm short-axis for lymph nodes) ≥10 mm in long-axis (15 mm short-axis for lymph nodes)
