<p>Pathological Complete Response After a Single Dose of Anti-PD-1 Therapy in Combination with Chemotherapy as a First-Line Setting in an Unresectable Locally Advanced Gastric Cancer with PD-L1 Positive and Microsatellite Instability</p>

Abstract: Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) immune checkpoint inhibitors have exhibited promising efficacy in various types of tumors. Here, we report an unresectable locally advanced gastric cancer (GC) with programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) positive and microsatellite instability (MSI), which exhibiting an unexpected efficacy of pathological complete response (pCR) after a single dose of anti-PD-1 therapy in combination with chemotherapy as a first-line setting. A 66-year-old man diagnosed with gastric cancer and wa… Show more

“…A potential mechanism underlying this difference is the elevated expression of PD-L1 in the cancer patients with the mutation of these genes. To date, many studies have revealed that PD-L1 expression is a predictive biomarker for anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy in GC patients (53,54). A clinical trial study (KEYNOTE-059) revealed that pembrolizumab, an anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody, had encouraging antitumor activity in PD-L1-positive advanced gastric/gastroesophageal cancer patients (53).…”

“…A clinical trial study (KEYNOTE-059) revealed that pembrolizumab, an anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody, had encouraging antitumor activity in PD-L1-positive advanced gastric/gastroesophageal cancer patients (53). Jin et al reported that a PD-L1-positive unresectable locally advanced GC with MSI exhibited pathological complete response to a single dose of anti-PD-1 immunotherapy in combination with chemotherapy (54). Hence, the identification of gene mutations associated with tumor immunity may furnish biomarkers for the optimal stratification of GC patients responsive to immunotherapy.…”

“…However, few clinical trials have been carried out on the application of ICI as neoadjuvant treatment in GC, and only one clinical trial (NCT03064490) is registered in ClinicalTrials.gov. Jin et al [ 61 ] submitted a notable case report, in which a patient with PD-L1 positive and MSI-high advanced GC (cT4aN+M0 state) received a single dose of anti-PD-1 therapy in combination with chemotherapy and radical gastrectomy, resulting in a pathological complete response (pT0N0M0)[ 61 ]. This case report suggested that a combined ICI scheme might be feasible as neoadjuvant treatment of GC.…”

“…Therefore, it is urgent to explore new treatment methods. Blockers targeting PD‐L1, 3 PD‐1, 4 HER2, 5 and other targets have become an important direction in study of GC. Overexpression of HER2 in GC patients is often positively correlated with PD‐L1 expression, which could depend on the PI3K‐AKT‐mTOR pathway, 6 suggesting that the combination of drugs aimed at the above targets might be a new therapeutic pathway.…”
