Abstract
TPS3615 Background: Colon cancer with deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) and POLE mutations are characterised by a high tumor mutational burden (TMB) and an immunogenic lymphocyte infiltrate. Approximately 12% of stage III colon cancer have dMMR. POLE mutations occur in 1% of colon cancers, but is enriched in patients <50 years of age. Colon cancer with high TMB have demonstrated to be sensitive to immune checkpoint inhibition in the metastatic...
