Homologous recombination deficiency as measured by BRCA1/2 alteration prevalence and loss-of-heterozygosity and immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) biomarkers [Tumor mutation burden (TMB)-High, Microsatellite instability (MSI)-High, PD-L1/L2)] were significantly more prevalent in BCBM than local BC and N-CNS. The gene discussed is BRCA1; the disease is breast cancer.
