Popis: Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has shown immense promise for treating patients with various cancer types, but its effectiveness relies on our ability to identify likely responders. Here, we examined the association between mutations in 25 core DNA repair genes and ICB outcomes in 6619 patients across 9 cancer types with advanced disease and MSK-IMPACT tumor sequencing. Notably, we observed that mutations in 7 of the DNA repair genes (ATM, ATR, POLE, ERCC4, NBN, RAD50, PARP1) were significantly associated with improved overall survival in ICB-treated patients (p0.05 for all) and had significant interaction with treatment (p
