Inflation of tumor mutation burden by tumor-only sequencing in under-represented groups

Abstract With the recent FDA approval of tumor mutational burden-high (TMB-H) status as a biomarker for treatment with a PD-1 inhibitor regardless of tumor type, accurate assessment of patient-specific TMB is more critical now more than ever. Using paired tumor and germline exome sequencing data fro...
