Abstract
CTLA-4 inhibition produces durable T cell-driven antitumor responses, but understanding which patients achieve a long-term benefit remains unclear. Deep sequencing of rearranged T cell receptor β (TCRβ) genes can monitor the effects of CTLA-4 inhibition and potentially identify patients with long-term survival.Entities:
