Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor Mutational Burden as an Independent Predictor of Response to Immunotherapy in Diverse Cancers.

TL;DR: Higher TMB predicts favorable outcome to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade across diverse cancers treated with various immunotherapies, and Benefit from dual checkpoint blockade did not show a similarly strong dependence on TMB.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hyperprogressors after Immunotherapy: Analysis of Genomic Alterations Associated with Accelerated Growth Rate

TL;DR: Genomic profiles may help to identify patients at risk for hyperprogression on immunotherapy, and significantly increased rate of tumor growth after single-agent checkpoint (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel patterns of response under immunotherapy.

TL;DR: Initially reported in advanced melanoma patients, pseudoprogression occurs when tumor index lesions regress after initial progression, supporting the concept of treating some patients beyond progression, and the classic RECIST remains a reasonable and meaningful method to assess response to immunotherapy in the clinic.
