Abstract Gastric cancer (GC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, with limited treatment options in advanced stages. Immunotherapy, particularly immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) targeting PD1/PD-L1, has emerged as promising therapeutic approach. However, significant proportion patients exhibit primary or acquired resistance, limiting the overall efficacy immunotherapy. This review provides comprehensive analysis mechanisms underlying immunotherapy resistance GC, including role tumor microenvironment, dynamic PD-L1 expression, compensatory activation other checkpoints, and genomic instability. Furthermore, explores GC-specific factors such molecular subtypes, unique evasion mechanisms, impact Helicobacter pylori infection. We also discuss emerging strategies to overcome combination therapies, novel immunotherapeutic approaches, personalized based on genomics microenvironment. By highlighting these key areas, this aims inform future research directions clinical practice, ultimately improving outcomes for GC undergoing

Stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) is a common malignancy with high heterogeneity and lack of highly precise treatment options. We downloaded the multiomics data STAD patients in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-STAD cohort, which included mRNA, microRNA, long non-coding RNA, somatic mutation, DNA methylation data, from sxdyc website. synthesized using 10 clustering methods, construct consensus machine learning-driven signature (CMLS)-related prognostic models by combining learning evaluated prognosis C-index. relationship between CMLS was assessed Kaplan-Meier curves, independent value determined univariate multivariate regression analyses. we also immune characteristics, immunotherapy response, drug sensitivity different groups. results analysis classified into three subtypes, CS1 resulting best survival outcome. In total, hub genes (CES3, AHCYL2, APOD, EFEMP1, CYP1B1, ASPN, CPE, CLIP3, MAP1B, DKK1) were screened constructed significantly correlated an factor for STAD. Using risk score, all divided group low group. Patients low-CMLS had better survival, more enriched cells, higher tumor mutation load scores, suggesting responsiveness possible "hot tumor" phenotype. high-CMLS poorer less sensitive to but likely benefit chemotherapy targeted therapy. this study, methods combined analyze STAD, classify CMLS-related model features, are important accurate management effective

Purpose Gastric cancer (GC) remains a daunting problem because of its inherent resistance to chemotherapy, particularly platinum-based medicines. This work was undertaken discover the molecular foundations involvement PANoptosis-related genes (PANRGs) in platinum-chemotherapy for GC. Methods A comprehensive bioinformatics analysis GC conducted dataset GSE66229 from Tumor Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The RNA sequencing data were normalized, and differential expression performed identify PANRGs that distinguish platinum-sensitive from-resistant Subsequent GO functional KEGG pathway analyses elucidate biological relevance these genes. Furthermore, prognostic model constructed predict survival outcomes patients utilizing identified PANRGs. Chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity using Drug Sensitivity Genomics (GDSC) database. Results yielded 18 significantly differentially expressed platinum-resistant comparing GC, which includes upregulated genes, CASP9, CHMP6, BAG3, EYA2, HSPB1, SHH, SLC9A3R1, SMAD3, FTH1, downregulated TP53, ADORA1, CAAP1, CHEK2, DAP3, INHBA, URI1, YWHAH, XIAP. These enriched processes pathways associated with cell cycle, apoptosis, platinum resistance. Based on expressions DAP3 XIAP single factor analysis, accurately stratified into high- low-risk groups, distinct differences identified. verified an independent GEO dataset, demonstrating resilience generalizability.

Comparison of immune checkpoint inhibitors in combination with chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone in the first-line treatment of advanced gastric cancer patients with low PD-L1 expression: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Therapeutic Advances in Medical Oncology, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 17

Опубликована: Май 1, 2025

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) + chemotherapy became standard her2-GC first line treatment. Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate whether ICIs chemo provides benefit for patients with low programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression. Design: This a systematic review and meta-analysis. Data sources: We searched PubMed, Embase, Web Science, Cochrane Library as well the 2019 2024 Annual Meetings European Society Medical Oncology, American Association Cancer Research, Clinical Oncology (ASCO), ASCO Symposium on Gastrointestinal (ASCO-GI) ClinicalTrials.gov database. Methods: included phase III randomized controlled trials comparing first-line immunotherapy combined versus alone in advanced gastric cancer. KMSubtraction was used estimate survival data those that did not report PD-L1 low-expression population. Results: total nine clinical trials. In positive score (CPS) < CPS 5, monoclonal antibody show an improvement overall (OS) or progression-free (PFS) (CPS OS: hazard ratio (HR) = 0.91, 95% CI: 0.77–1.08; PFS: HR 0.88, 0.73–1.07. 5 0.92, 0.79–1.08; 0.78, 0.53–1.14). However, using dual antibodies, achieved improvements PFS (HR 0.64, 0.52–0.80). tumor area positivity (TAP) scoring, subgroup TAP 5% achieve benefits OS from plus (OS: 0.75–1.13; 0.74–1.13). Conclusion: Our results indicate treatment cancer, does provide compared it noteworthy COMPASSION-15 trial, significant PFS, which may be related bispecific antibodies needs validated by further studies. Trial registration: registered PROSPERO (CRD42024568972).
