Tumor-agnostic plasma assay for circulating tumor DNA predicts outcome in recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck treated with a PD-1 inhibitor
Only 15-20% of recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (R/M SCCHN) patients derive long-term benefit from nivolumab or pembrolizumab. We developed a ctDNA tumor-agnostic assay aimed at the early prediction of single agent PD-1 inhibitor efficacy in R/M SCCHN.
