A machine learning algorithm with subclonal sensitivity reveals widespread pan-cancer human leukocyte antigen loss of heterozygosity
Abstract
Human leukocyte antigen loss of heterozygosity (HLA LOH) is an important mechanism of immune escape in patients with cancer. Here the authors design and validate a machine learning algorithm with subclonal sensitivity for the identification of HLA LOH from paired tumor-normal sequencing data.
