Abstrakt: | Purpose This research work evaluates monotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors (CPI). as a neoadjuvant treatment for patients with Microsatellite Instability-High (MSI-H) locally advanced gastric cancer. Methods Here we present the results of the retrospective study from Napalkov Cancer Center over 4.5 years on patients with MSI-H locally advanced gastric cancer. A total of 566 patients were analyzed, 18 of whom were included in the research, focusing on clinical response rate, surgical pathology, 'watch and wait' strategy, and safety outcomes on an exploratory basis. Patients were assigned to four to eight neoadjuvant cycles of CPI, followed by surgery. Results The objective response to neoadjuvant CPI in patients with MSI-H gastric cancer was 77.8%. Complete response was achieved in five (27.8%) and partial response in nine (50%) patients, accordingly. Surgery was performed on 14 patients. Complete margin-free (R0) resection rates were 100%. Downstaging was observed in 12 out of 14 patients. Histopathologic complete response rates (pathologic complete response or Tumor Regression Grade-major response (TRG1)) were achieved in eight (57.1%) patients. No disease progression was detected with a median follow-up of 33.7 months (4.4-55.7 months). Clinically significant adverse events were not observed. Conclusion CPI in a neoadjuvant setting for patients with MSI-H locally advanced gastric cancer is highly effective and safe.
