Abstract

AbstractGastric cancer (GC) remains one of the world’s most common and fatal malignant tumors. With a refined understanding of molecular typing in recent years, microsatellite instability (MSI) has become a major molecular typing approach for gastric cancer. MSI is well recognized for its important role during the immunotherapy of advanced GC. However, its value remains unclear in resectable gastric cancer. The reported incidence of microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H)/deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) in resectable gastric cancer varies widely, with no consensus reached on the value of postoperative adjuvant therapy in patients with MSI-H/dMMR resectable GC. It has been established that MSI-H/dMMR tumor cells can elicit an endogenous immune antitumor response and ubiquitously express immune checkpoint ligands such as PD-1 or PD-L1. On the basis of these considerations, MSI-H/dMMR resectable GCs are responsive to adjuvant immunotherapy, although limited research has hitherto been conducted. In this review, we comprehensively describe the differences in geographic distribution and pathological stages in patients with MSI-H/dMMR with resectable gastric cancer and explore the value of adjuvant chemotherapy and immunotherapy on MSI-H/dMMR to provide a foothold for the individualized treatment of this patient population.
