Abstract Although the efficacy of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) against HER2-positive gastric cancers (GCs) has driven its clinical application, the precise mechanisms governing its immunomodulatory role remain unclear. In this study, we examined the immune-related mechanisms of action of T-DXd in GC cells. T-DXd exhibited potent antitumor effects in GC cells across diverse HER2 expression levels by inducing DNA damage and apoptosis. Activation of the DNA damage response by T-DXd led to increased PD-L1 expression. RNA-Seq analysis revealed that T-DXd modulated immune-related pathways, resulting in the upregulation of genes associated with inflammation and IFN signaling. Importantly, T-DXd activated the cGAS-STING pathway, inducing an IFN-I response in HER2-positive GC cells. Furthermore, T-DXd activated dendritic cells via the cancer cell-intrinsic cGAS-STING-IFN axis and enhanced PBMC-mediated tumor cell killing by activating CD8+ T cells. These findings provide valuable insights into the role of the cytosolic DNA sensing pathway in the action of T-DXd and offer a compelling rationale for combining T-DXd with immune checkpoint blockade therapies in GC treatment. |
