Abstract excerpt
Tumor mutational burden (TMB) is a biomarker that measures the number of somatic mutations in a tumor's genome. TMB has emerged as a predictor of response to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in various cancer types, and several studies have shown that patients with high TMB have better outcomes when treated with programmed death-ligand 1-based therapies. Recently, the Food and Drug Administration has approved...
