Abstract

Tumor mutational burden (TMB) and T-cell receptor (TCR) might predict the response to immunotherapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the predictive value of the combination of TMB and TCR was not clear. Targeted DNA and TCR sequencing were performed on tumor biopsy specimens. We combined TMB and TCR diversity into a TMB-and-TCR (TMR) score using logistic regression. In total, 38 patients with advanced NSCLC were divided into a discovery set (
