While a study led the FDA to approve #TMB as a #biomarker for #immunotherapy, research from Amin Nassar, MD shows that >95% of the participants were white. So how does this biomarker perform in patients who are non-white? ⬇️⬇️ yalecancercenter.org/news-article/d… Smilow Cancer Hospital Yale School of Medicine Yale New Haven Hosp

1/10. After our oral presentation at #GU23, we are excited to share our Lancet preprint on ICIs for penile cancer! Work co-led w/ Amin Nassar, MD & supervised by Guru P. Sonpavde, MD Andrea Apolo, M.D.. A global study from Global Society of Rare GU Tumors! Andrea Necchi Philippe spiess Toni Choueiri, MD papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…

So fortunate to share our The Lancet preprint. This is proof-of-concept showing that unanswered clinical questions in rare diseases can be accomplished by global collaboration across tens of centers! TOOK A VILLAGE to answer this and hopefully more similar efforts to come.
