Burden of tumor mutations, neoepitopes, and other variants are weak predictors of cancer immunotherapy response and overall survival
30 Mar 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Tumor mutational burden (TMB; the quantity of aberrant nucleotide sequences a given tumor may harbor) has been associated with response to immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy and is gaining broad acceptance as a result. However, TMB harbors intrinsic variability across cancer types, and its assessment and interpretation are poorly standardized. METHODS: Using a standardized approach, we quantify the...
