Somatic 9p24.1 alterations in HPV – head and neck squamous cancer dictate immune microenvironment and anti-PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor activity
17 Nov 2022
Abstract excerpt
Somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs), generally ( 1 ) losses containing interferons and interferon-pathway genes, many on chromosome 9p, predict immune-cold, immune checkpoint therapy (ICT)-resistant tumors ( 2 ); however, genomic regions mediating these effects are unclear and probably tissue specific. Previously, 9p21.3 loss was found to be an early genetic driver of human papillomavirus–negative (HPV – )...
