The panel passed consistency check, pathological and in-silico validations, and was an excellent predictor (area under ROC curve >0.95) of eventual response to ICB, both CTLA-4 and PD-1 blockade, when applied to metastatic melanoma patients undergoing ICB (i.e., “on-treatment”) in a publicly available dataset. The gene discussed is CTLA4; the disease is metastatic melanoma.
