  • Publication number: 20230071113
    Abstract: A method of treating a subject having been diagnosed as having cancer with an immunotherapy is described. The method comprises targeting one or more clonal neoantigens selected using a method comprising determining whether a tumour-specific mutation is likely to be clonal in a subject. The method comprises providing sequence data from one or more samples from the subject comprising tumour genetic material, the sequence data comprising for each of the one or more samples, and determining the likelihood that the tumour-specific mutation is clonal as a posterior probability depending on: a prior probability of the mutation being clonal, and the probabilities of observing the sequence data if the tumour-specific mutation is (i) clonal and (ii) non-clonal, in view of a tumour fraction for each of the one or more samples and one or more candidate joint genotypes.
