Excerpt:
Patients with both high PD-L1 expression and high TMB showed a good response to ICIs with the response rate of 64% and median progression-free survival of 9.0 months despite of small population.

Title:

490 - A very high tumor mutational burden (TMB) is associated with improved efficacy of PD-(L)1 inhibition across different PD-L1 expression subgroups and a distinct immunophenotype in NSCLC

Excerpt:
TMB cut-off for objective response rate (ORR) in two independent cohorts (DFCI and MSKCC) of pts with NSCLC treated with ICI….A TMB ≥90th percentile correlated with longer PFS/OS among NSCLCs with PD-L1 levels ≥50%...

MA08.06 - Stratifying PD-L1 Expression Level Based on Multimodal Genomic Features for the Prediction of Immunotherapy Benefit in NSCLC

Excerpt:
...a combination of our model with TMB showed 52% of patients with both TMB high and predicted PD-L1 high benefited from ICIs treatment...We also find the predicted PD-L1 expression levels combined with TMB may help to identify patients who are most likely to respond to ICIs treatment...
