FcγR3A polymorphism influences natural killer cell activation and response to anti-PD-L1 (avelumab) in gestational trophoblastic neoplasia

Our work demonstrates that antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity contributes to the therapeutic effect of avelumab in gestational trophoblastic neoplasia and that the individual patient response is impacted by the FcγR3A polymorphism. The FcγR3A polymorphism could be used as a biomarker to identify patients diagnosed with monochemoresistant gestational trophoblastic neoplasia who are most likely to respond to avelumab.
