| Core Tip |
Immunotherapy is an approved treatment for metastatic rectal cancer in patients with defective mismatch repair (MMR). Neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy can benefit patients who have locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) with proficient MMR (pMMR)/microsatellite stability (MSS). Through a meta-analysis with 15 publications included, the results of our meta-analysis showed that neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy can improve the clinical remission rate (major pathologic response, clinical complete response, and pathologic complete response) of patients with LARC, especially for those with pMMR/MSS, and this treatment did not increase the incidence of postoperative complications and adverse reactions. |
