Pembrolizumab biomarkers for solid cancer
Background on these biomarkers
Pembrolizumab has a broad approval for use in metastatic solid cancers that have high TMB or MSI.
Your biomarker results
You have been tested for TMB, one of the two approved tissue-agnostic biomarkers for prescribing Pembrolizumab. You have not been tested for the other biomarker, MSI.
- TMB: You have been measured as having a high tumor mutational burden. Combined with your clinical history, high TMB makes you eligible to take Pembrolizumab, under the FDA accelerated solid tumor approval. While elevated TMB is uncommon (<5% of patients) in prostate cancer, there is evidence that some CRPC patients respond well to pembrolizumab.
