NSCLC patients with KMT2C/BCOR/KDM5C mutations had comparable clinical outcomes to TMB-high patients in terms of objective response rate, durable clinical benefit and overall survival...the association of this mutation with better ICB response was independent of tumor TMB and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) level, and combination of KMT2C/BCOR/KDM5C mutations with TMB or PD-L1 further improve the prediction of ICB response in NSCLC patients...our data indicate that KMT2C/BCOR/KDM5C mutation has the potential to serve as a predictive biomarker, alone or combined with PD-L1 expression or TMB, for ICB therapy in NSCLC.
