KEW announces Characterization of biomarkers to immune checkpoint blockade therapy across solid tumors at ASCO SITC. January 26, 2018.
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy has been effective patients with solid tumors. Currently, tumor expression of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) is clinically used as a biomarker of predicted response to ICBs in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, across solid tumors, only a subset of patients benefit from ICBs, so there is need to identify other biomarkers to predict response to ICB. We investigated the use of large panel next generation sequencing (NGS) to characterize biomarkers to ICBs across solid tumors. Read Article> https://meetinglibrary.asco.org/record/156658/abstract
KEW announces Characterization of tumor mutation burden (TMB) and microsatellite instability (MSI) interplay for gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (GA) and colorectal carcinoma (CRC) at ASCO SITC, January 26, 2018.
Tumor genomic instability is positively correlated with immunotherapy response. It confers different tumor phenotypes, including high TMB (TMB-H) and high MSI (MSI-H). Recently the US Food and Drug Administration approved MSI-H phenotype as a biomarker for immunotherapy, highlighting its importance, but also bringing up the question of how TMB as another promising biomarker is going to add value in the field. Here, we characterized TMB and MSI profiles to better understand the potential TMB contribution and identify genomic markers for it.

AACR Annual Meeting 2017 – Abstract: Genomic Profiling of the Tumors Harboring Activating EGFR Mutations
EGFR is a receptor tyrosine kinase of the HER/ERBB family and an oncogenic driver, especially for NSCLC, HNSCC and CRC. EGFR targeted therapies have been successfully used for treating cancer patients harboring activating EGFR mutations. However a main challenge is acquired drug resistance due to mutations or alternative signaling. While developing next generation drugs is…
