Description
Summary:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy has achieved remarkable clinical benefit in non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but our understanding of biomarkers that predict the response to ICB remain obscure. Here we integrated somatic mutational profile and clinicopathologic information from 113 NSCLC patients treated by ICB (CTLA‐4/PD‐1). High tumor mutation burden (TMB) and neoantigen burden were identified significantly associated with improved efficacy in NSCLC immunotherapy. Furthermore, we identified apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide‐like (APOBEC) mutational signature was markedly associated with responding of ICB therapy (log‐rank test, P = .001; odds ratio (OR), 0.18 [95% CI, 0.06‐0.50], P
