Immune determinants of the association between tumor mutational burden and immunotherapy response across cancer types

2021-05-26

Abstract excerpt

The FDA has recently approved high tumor mutational burden (TMB), defined by ≥10 mutations/Mb, as a biomarker for the treatment of solid tumors with pembrolizumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) that targets PD1. However, recent studies testify that high TMB levels are only able to stratify ICI responders in a subset of cancer types, where the mechanisms underlying this observation have remained unknown. We...
