A commercial targeted panel (NovoPM 3.0) was used to sequence HLA genotypes. We screened all patients who have been treated in the clinical research ward, Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. All participants were diagnosed with malignant tumors with complete AE follow-up data in the original electronic medical records. Sequencing libraries were generated using a customized panel, and four-digit formatted HLA alleles were extracted for further analysis. Association analysis was performed between HLA variants and different irAEs. We introduced two external reference groups and a non-irAE control group within the study cohort to control the type I error. We also explored the relationship between the zygosity of HLA genes, the evolutionary divergence of HLA class I genotype (HED), and irAEs. |
