Microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) and polymerase ε ( POLE )-mutated metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) represent hypermutated and ultramutated tumor phenotypes, respectively, that may predict benefit to checkpoint blockade [anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)/programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1)].
