High tumor mutational burden predicts favorable response to anti-PD-(L)1 therapy in patients with solid tumor: a real-world pan-tumor analysis by Sehhoon Park, Jaeyun Jung, You Jeong Heo

“…Natural killer cells (p=0.04), cytotoxic T cells (p<0.01), memory T cells (p<0.01), naïve memory T cells (p<0.01), and proteins related to T-cell proliferation (p<0.01) were observed in a responder group compared with a non-responder group. In contrast, exhausted T-cell and M2 macrophage counts were increased in the non-responder group.Conclusions The overall incidence of TMB status was analyzed by the TSO500 assay, and TMB-H was observed in 14.7% of the pan-cancer population. …”
