Abstract excerpt
Host genetic ancestry plays an important role in shaping somatic mutation landscapes and may influence therapeutic outcomes as well as the risk of developing treatment-related adverse events. As genetic ancestry has been associated with differential susceptibility to melanoma subtypes, distinct somatic mutation frequencies and variable responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors warrant further investigation. This...
