Evidence These 20 variants did not include the immune escape variant sG145R, detected in relatively high frequencies at pre-treatment, but otherwise included the variants sS167L, sW172C, and sW172*, located at the minimal recognized sequence (positions s165 to s172) of the TH-s156/s175 epitope [27]; among these, sS167L showed a continuous percentage increase from pre-treatment to ETV-VBK (sample 4A: 0.2%, 4B: 0.7%, 4C: 1.1%, 4D: 1.3%, 4E: 4%).
