TL;DR: This report of initial and durable responses of recurrent GBM to immune checkpoint inhibition may have implications for GBM in general and other hypermutant cancers arising from primary (genetic predisposition) or secondary MMRD.

TL;DR: An extensive assessment of mutation burden through sequencing analysis of >81,000 tumors from pediatric and adult patients, including tumors with hypermutation caused by chemotherapy, carcinogens, or germline alterations, uncovered new driver mutations in the replication-repair-associated DNA polymerases and a distinct impact of microsatellite instability and replication repair deficiency on the scale of mutation load.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combined hereditary and somatic mutations of replication error repair genes result in rapid onset of ultra-hypermutated cancers.

TL;DR: A new mechanism of cancer progression is suggested in which mutations develop in a rapid burst after ablation of replication repair, which implies a threshold compatible with cancer-cell survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genotype and phenotype correlations in patients with cystic fibrosis and pancreatitis.
TL;DR: Patients with CF with pancreatic sufficiency carry at least one mild mutant allele and are at a significant risk of developing pancreatitis, which is associated with an otherwise mild CF phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic and clinical determinants of constitutional mismatch repair deficiency syndrome: Report from the constitutional mismatch repair deficiency consortium

TL;DR: Screening tumours and normal tissues using immunohistochemistry for abnormal expression of MMR gene products may help in diagnosis and early implementation of surveillance for these children with CMMRD.
