Given that these tumor features are associated with the response to immune checkpoint inhibitors, we administered nivolumab to a CRC patient who carried two inactive MUTYH alleles (p.Y179C and p.G396D) and previously experienced failure of chemotherapy.
Biallelic mutations in the MUTYH gene predispose individuals to MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP), and the most commonly observed mutation in some MAP populations is Y165C.
