Table 4. Comparison of currently used gene panels for tTMB calculation [30, 31] with our panel (LMB_TMB1).

Gene panel Number of genes Size region covered* (Mb) TMB cut-off Gene variants included in TMB calculation FDA approved
F1CDx 324 0.8 Mb 10 mut/Mb Somatic non-synonymous and synonymous mutations Yes
MSK-IMPACT 468 1.14 Mb Somatic non-synonymous mutations Yes
Illumina TSO500 523 1.33 Mb 10 mut/Mb Somatic non-synonymous and synonymous mutations No
Oncomine TML 409 1.22 Mb Somatic non-synonymous mutations No
QIAseq TMB 486 1.33 Mb Somatic non-synonymous mutations No
LMB_TMB1 313 0.81/0.8 Mb** 22/12 mut/Mb** Somatic non-synonymous and synonymous mutations*** No

* Coding region used to estimate TMB regardless of the size of the region assessed by the panel.

** The approach for TMB calculation including HLA genes / the approach for TMB calculation excluding HLA genes.

*** Non-synonymous mutations include SNPs and short insertions and deletions (indels).
