Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have demonstrated meaningful activity as neoadjuvant therapy in muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). Identifying patients most likely to respond to ICI-based neoadjuvant strategies remains an unmet need. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Tumor mutational burden (TMB) from baseline transurethral resection of bladder (TURB) tumor samples of MIBC patients treated with...
