Genomic and immune microenvironment features influencing chemoimmunotherapy response in gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis: a retrospective cohort study.
International journal of surgery (London, England)(2024)
摘要
BACKGROUND:Patients with peritoneal metastasis (PM) from gastric cancer (GC) exhibit poor prognosis. Chemoimmunotherapy offers promising clinical benefits; however, its efficacy and predictive biomarkers in a conversion therapy setting remain unclear. The authors aimed to retrospectively evaluate chemoimmunotherapy efficacy in a conversion therapy setting for GC patients with PM and establish a prediction model for assessing clinical benefits.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:A retrospective evaluation of clinical outcomes encompassed 55 GC patients with PM who underwent chemoimmunotherapy in a conversion therapy setting. Baseline PM specimens were collected for genomic and transcriptomic profiling. Clinicopathological factors, gene signatures, and tumor immune microenvironment were evaluated to identify predictive markers and develop a prediction model.
RESULTS:Chemoimmunotherapy achieved a 41.8% objective response rate and 72.4% R0 resection rate in GC patients with PM. Patients with conversion surgery showed better overall survival (OS) than those without the surgery (median OS: not reached vs 7.82 m, P<0.0001). Responders to chemoimmunotherapy showed higher ERBB2 and ERBB3 mutation frequencies, CTLA4 and HLA-DQB1 expression, and CD8+ T cell infiltration, but lower CDH1 mutation and naïve CD4+ T cell infiltration, compared to nonresponders. A prediction model was established integrating CDH1 and ERBB3 mutations, HLA-DQB1 expression, and naïve CD4+ T cell infiltration (AUC=0.918), which were further tested using an independent external cohort (AUC=0.785).
CONCLUSION:This exploratory study comprehensively evaluated clinicopathological, genomic, and immune features and developed a novel prediction model, providing a rational basis for the selection of GC patients with PM for chemoimmunotherapy-involved conversion therapy.
