longitudinal
35 of 39 people sampled more than once (83 samples; median 2, up to 4 per person) · follow-up median 4 mo (max 2.5 y) · median interval between samples 4 mo (time from collection dates).
Each row is one person (35 shown); dots are samples at days since that person's first sample.
Genera, mean relative abundance over 86 profiled gut samples of this project (Sandpiper SingleM profiles, GTDB R232; low-depth and non-metagenome profiles left out).

Archive description
This project includes shotgun metagenomic sequencing of fecal samples from patients with metastatic melanoma that were undergoing immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. Samples were collected at baseline and Week 17 after treatment. Shotgun metagenomic libraries for all samples were prepared using the Nextera DNA Library Prep Kit and sequenced on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 SP platform.
How this project entered the registry
Classified as human gut / stool shotgun DNA metagenome of adult and elderly by sonnet_x2 with confidence 0.85. Assay shotgun_dna.
