| Core Tip |
Long-term survival after progression on immunochemotherapy is uncommon in metastatic gastric cancer. We report a patient with stage IV gastric adenocarcinoma who achieved radiologic and pathologic complete response after the addition of autologous gamma delta (γδ) T-cell infusions to ramucirumab and trifluridine/tipiracil. Because γδ T cells recognize stressed tumor cells independent of the major histocompatibility complex, they may retain antitumor activity even when immune checkpoint blockade fails. This case is hypothesis-generating and supports further investigation of γδ T-cell-based immunotherapy in gastric cancer. |
