Mutation and Microsatellite Burden Predict Response to PD-1 Inhibition in Children with Germline DNA Replication Repair Deficiency
2021-02-15
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Cancers arising from germline DNA mismatch-repair or polymerase-proofreading deficiencies (MMRD and PPD) in children harbour the highest mutational and microsatellite insertion/deletion (MS-indel) burden in humans and are lethal due to inherent resistance to chemo-irradiation. Although immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have failed to benefit children in previous studies, we hypothesize...
