Using Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs) for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) has significantly reduced the risk of recurrence and prolonged survival. Immunotherapy has demonstrated efficacy in multiple solid tumors, but its effectiveness in GIST remains uncertain. Although early clinical studies indicate good tolerability of immunotherapy in patients, the efficacy is not as desired. Therefore, identifying the subset of GIST patients who benefit from immunotherapy and coordinating the relationship between immunotherapy and TKI treatment are crucial issues to be explored. In this review, we aims to provide a retrospective analysis of relevant literature and find that GIST patients exhibit a rich presence of tumor-infiltrating immune cells, which play critical roles in the immune surveillance and evasion processes of tumors. This review incorporates a selection of 48 articles published between 2002 and 2023, sourced from PubMed, EBSCO, and Google Scholar databases. |
