In the merged cohort, patients with POTEE-mutation (POTEE-Mut) had a significantly higher objective response rate (ORR) (100% vs 27.7%; P < 0.001) and longer progression-free survival (PFS) (P = 0.001; HR 0.08; 95% CI 0.01 - 0.54) compared to patients with POTEE wild-type (POTEE-WT) in NSCLC. Also, patients with POTEE-Mut showed higher ORR (100% vs 27.2%; P < 0.001) and longer PFS (P = 0.001; HR 0.07; 95% CI 0.01 - 0.52) in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).
