Abstract excerpt
The efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is limited by primary or acquired resistance, especially in genetically defined subsets. We investigated the impact of KRAS/TP53 co-mutation on ICB response. Our analysis reveals that KRAS/TP53 co-mutation is associated with favorable ICB outcomes, a phenotype orchestrated by secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1). Mechanistically, mutant...
