In addition, PBRM1 mutations were found to enhance T-cell-mediated killing in an unbiased, high-throughput screen in a melanoma model (Pan et al., 2018). As PBRM1 and other ccRCC tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) converge on ISGF3, it will be very interesting to examine whether ISGF3 status is a predictive biomarker for response to immunotherapy. The gene discussed is STAT2; the disease is melanoma.
