| Core Tip |
Descending duodenal adenocarcinoma (DDA) is a rare malignancy of the digestive system. We treated a patient with DDA characterized by microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) and high programmed cell death-ligand 1 expression, customizing the treatment regimen for individualized pembrolizumab therapy based on our clinical experience and disease assessment. The patient achieved long-term clinical remission with satisfactory results. This case underscores the advantages of individualized therapy and confirms that patients with mismatch-repair deficiency/MSI-H can derive significant benefits from pembrolizumab. |
