Lynch Syndrome and Somatic Mismatch Repair Variants in Pancreas Cancer
5 Sept 2024
Abstract excerpt
Importance: Microsatellite (MS) instability (MSI-H) occurs frequently in Lynch syndrome (LS)-associated tumors and is associated with response to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. MSI-H is conferred by germline or somatic variants in mismatch repair genes. The contribution of somatic oncogenesis to MSI-H in pancreatic cancer (PC) is unknown. Objective: To evaluate an LS-related PC cohort to define...
