Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptors (PTPRs) play a crucial part in numerous tumor processes. However, the effect of PTPR mutations on the immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) response needs to be further clarified. Next-generation sequencing was performed on 453 cancer patients in our internal cohort. The genomic alterations, tumor mutation burden (TMB), neoantigens, and immune-related features/pathways of other cohorts were analyzed. Here, protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type D (PTPRD) has a high mutation frequency and an intensified co-occurrence with other PTPRs. Patients who responded to ICI therapy were enriched with the PTPRD mutation (PTPRD-MUT). PTPRD-MUT patients had a higher objective response rate (44.1% vs. 29.1%), TMB/neoantigens, and longer overall survival time than PTPRD-wild-type (PTPRD-WT) patients. Genomic alterations with a higher mutation frequency of genes (such as LRP1B) were enriched in PTPRDMUT patients. More abundant immune cells (including CD8⁺ T cells and macrophages) and upregulated immune-related genes were found in PTPRDMUT patients. Moreover, Gene sets enrichment analyses showed that multiple antitumor immune pathways are activated in PTPRD-MUT patients. Therefore, PTPRD-MUT is beneficial for immunotherapy of multiple cancer types and may be a predictive biomarker of patient clinical outcomes.
