Characteristics of genomic alterations as a function of immune subtype. Numbers of cases analyzed using WES were LUAD (n = 69; Cold, n = 13; Myeloid, n = 31; CD8, n = 25), and LUSQ (n = 45; Cold, n = 11; Myeloid, n = 19; CD8, n = 15). Number of cases analyzed using RNA-seq for fusion genes are the same as described in Fig. 4. A–F, Characteristics of gene alterations. Number of patients are indicated in each column. Mutations of EGFR, TP53, KRAS, STK11, and RB1 in LUAD (A) and LUSQ (B) were analyzed using WES. ALK and ROS1 fusion genes in LUAD (C) and LUSQ (D) were analyzed with RNA-seq. Amplification or loss of MET and TERT in LUAD (E) and LUSQ (F) were analyzed using WES. Differences in gene alterations for immune subtypes in LUAD (G) and LUSQ (H) plotted as P values determined using Fisher exact test w. In the dot plots, red circles indicate P ≤ 0.05 and the filled red circle indicates Holm-adjusted P ≤ 0.2.

History

ARTICLE ABSTRACT

The precise TIL profiling classified NSCLC into novel three immune subtypes that correlates with patient outcome, identifying subtype-specific molecular pathways and genomic alterations that should play important roles in constructing subtype-specific immune tumor microenvironments. These classifications of NSCLC based on TIL status are useful for developing personalized immune therapies for NSCLC.
