Evaluation of tissue- and plasma-derived tumor mutational burden (TMB) and genomic alterations of interest in CheckMate 848, a study of nivolumab combined with ipilimumab and nivolumab alone in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors with high TMB

Background An accumulation of somatic mutations in tumors leads to increased neoantigen levels and antitumor immune response. Tumor mutational burden (TMB) reflects the rate of somatic mutations in the tumor genome, as determined from tumor tissue (tTMB) or blood (bTMB). While high tTMB is a biomark...
