Abstract excerpt
Clonal hematopoiesis (CH)-the expansion of somatically mutated hematopoietic cells-is common in solid cancers. CH is associated with systemic inflammation, but its impact on tumor biology is underexplored. Here, we report the effects of CH on the tumor microenvironment (TME) using 1,550 treatment-naive patient samples from the Clinical Proteomics Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) cohort. CH is present in 18.3% of...
