Acquired genetic resistance mechanisms that emerge during IO therapies have been identified in relapsed patients, and include tumor mutations in the Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), Janus kinase (JAK)-signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathways, as well as major histocompatibility complex (MHC) components (Zaretsky et al., 2016; Sucker et al., 2017; Christopher et al., 2018). This evidence concerns the gene HLA-C and neoplasm.
