Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Tumor mutational burden (TMB) may be a predictive biomarker of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) responsiveness. Genomic landscape heterogeneity is a well-established cancer feature. Molecular characteristics may differ even within the same tumor specimen and undoubtedly evolve with time. However, the degree to which TMB differs between tumor biopsies within the same patient has not been established....
