ASCO 2023 | Comparing responders and non-responders for the loss of function NOD2 mutations

Megan Babette Barnet, MD, The Kinghorn Cancer Centre, Darlinghurst, Australia, summarizes the findings of a trial where whole genome sequencing was used on prospectively recruited patients with lung cancer. Exceptional responders, who did not reach progression-free survival (PFS) and had an immune-related adverse event, were compared with non-responders. Within the exceptional responder’s cohort, 40 patients had established loss of function mutation in NOD2, compared with non-responders where this figure was significantly lower. This interview took place at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2023 Annual Congress in Chicago, IL.
