Abstract Text | Immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting the programmed cell death 1 receptor (PD-1) improve survival in a subset of patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). To identify genomic alterations in ccRCC that correlate with response to anti-PD-1 monotherapy, we performed whole-exome sequencing of metastatic ccRCC from 35 patients. We found that clinical benefit was associated with loss-of-function mutations in the PBRM1 gene (P = 0.012), which encodes a subunit of the PBAF switch-sucrose nonfermentable (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complex. We confirmed this finding in an independent validation cohort of 63 ccRCC patients treated with PD-1 or PD-L1 (PD-1 ligand) blockade therapy alone or in combination with anti-CTLA-4 (cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein 4) therapies (P = 0.0071). Gene-expression analysis of PBAF-deficient ccRCC cell lines and PBRM1-deficient tumors revealed altered transcriptional output in JAK-STAT (Janus kinase-signal transducers and activators of transcription), hypoxia, and immune signaling pathways. PBRM1 loss in ccRCC may alter global tumor-cell expression profiles to influence responsiveness to immune checkpoint therapy. |

PBRM1 | S681R | missense | unknown | PBRM1 S681R lies within Bromo domain 5 of the Pbrm1 protein (UniProt.org). S681R has been identified in the scientific literature (PMID: 29301960), but has not been biochemically characterized and therefore, its effect on Pbrm1 protein function is unknown (PubMed, Jul 2024). | |
PBRM1 | W141_L145delinsC | indel | unknown | PBRM1 W141_L145delinsC results in a deletion of five amino acids of the Pbrm1 protein from amino acids 141 to 145, combined with the insertion of a cysteine (C) at the same site (UniProt.org). W141_L145delinsC has been identified in the scientific literature (PMID: 29301960), but has not been biochemically characterized and therefore, its effect on Pbrm1 protein function is unknown (PubMed, Jul 2024). |
