Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Few patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC) benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). On the basis of immunotherapy response correlates in other cancers, we evaluated whether high tumor mutational burden (TMB) ≥10 nonsynonymous mutations/megabase and PTEN alterations, defined as nonsynonymous mutations or 1 or 2 copy deletions, were associated with clinical benefit to...
