No significant associations were observed between HLA-A subtypes and the incidence of immune-related adverse effects. HLA genotyping should be incorporated early in the diagnostic work-up of patients with solid cancers as a predictive and selective biomarker.

HLA-A (Major Histocompatibility Complex, Class I, A)
The absence of association between genomic HLA-I/-II homozygosity and clinical outcome among patients with advanced NSCLC treated with pembrolizumab in combination with chemotherapy might reflect a diminished role for HLA molecules among patients with low or no PD-L1. HLA-A01 and HLA-B27 might have a role in predicting clinical outcomes among this cohort of patients. Further studies are needed to explore biomarkers for this group of patients.
