Overview

Analysis uncovers significant associations between somatic mutations and venous thromboembolism rates in cancer patients, suggesting an important link.

Key Points

  • Somatic mutations in genes CDKN2A, KRAS, PCDH15, and TP53 were linked to increased rates of venous thromboembolism.
  • Multivariable Cox regressions showed a hazard ratio of 1.62 for CDKN2A, highlighting its significance in VTE risk.
  • Tumour mutational burden of 20 mutations/Mb and certain mutational signatures indicated lower venous thromboembolism rates.
  • Identifying these associations may improve clinical risk prediction for venous thromboembolism in cancer patients.
