Comparison of T cell receptor clonality by viral status and response to anti-PD-1. a) TCR clonality is significantly higher in patients with VP-MCCs compared to those with VN-MCCs (pā€‰=ā€‰0.0001 by Mann-Whitney test). b) TCR clonality is not associated with response to pembrolizumab (pā€‰=ā€‰0.2636 by Mann-Whitney test). This observation remains true when comparing clonality among responding versus non-responding patients whose tumors are virus-positive (virus(+)ā€‰=ā€‰open circles; virus(āˆ’)ā€‰=ā€‰black squares)
