Multi-omics analysis reveals neoantigen-independent immune cell infiltration in copy-number driven cancers

Neoantigen load has been associated with tumour immune infiltration. Here, the authors show that while this is true for tumours with recurrent mutations, cancers with recurrent CNAs show neoantigen-independent infiltration driven by cytokine production downstream of the DNA damage sensor ATM.
