Abstract
Background: We examined the impact of mismatch repair (MMR) status on efficacy of first-line fluoropyrimidine plus platinum (FP) chemotherapy in patients with HER2-negative metastatic, recurrent, or unresectable gastric cancer (mGC).
Methods: Patients with mGC receiving first-line FP between 2015 and 2018 at Asan Medical Center, Korea, were reviewed. We evaluated the clinical characteristics and the efficacy of chemotherapy according to MMR status in patients with available immunohistochemistry results.
Results: Of 895 patients, we analyzed 543 with available MMR protein expression results, and deficient MMR (dMMR) was detected in 4.4% (n = 24). Patients with dMMR exhibited a significantly higher median age than those with proficient MMR (pMMR) (64 vs. 58 years, p = 0.044). No signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) was detected among dMMR tumors, whereas SRCC was found in 17.5% of pMMR. Objective response rate was 27.3% in dMMR and 34.3% in pMMR (p = 0.556). No difference in progression-free survival was noted between patients with dMMR and pMMR (median, 5.6 vs. 5.8 months, p = 0.266). Patients with dMMR tended to have better overall survival than those with pMMR although this difference was not statistically significant (median, 17.9 vs. 12.2 months, p = 0.183).
Conclusions: Efficacy of first-line FP was not different by MMR status in mGC patients.
