👥Biography 个人简介
Mark Yarchoan has contributed to understanding tumor mutational burden (TMB) and mismatch repair deficiency as biomarkers for checkpoint immunotherapy response. The FDA approval of pembrolizumab for TMB-high solid tumors (2020) and for dMMR/MSI-H solid tumors (2017) represented landmark tumor-agnostic approvals where molecular features rather than histology determined treatment eligibility — paradigm-shifting decisions for precision immunotherapy.
