Key Words Gastric cancer; Programmed death-ligand 1; Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2; Neutral buffered formalin; Fixation time
Core Tip We prospectively investigated the real effects of fixation conditions on HER-2 or PD-L1 testing for gastric cancer using 32 cases of gastrectomy specimens. We analysed these resected specimens dividing into four pieces and fixed in four strictly controlled different durations (6, 24, and 48 h, and 1 wk) by 10% formalin or 10% neutral buffered formalin. In this small-numbered pilot study, the prolonged fixation within 1 week showed no inferiority in HER-2 or PD-L1 testing. These results will provide supporting information for the interpretation of HER-2 and PD-L1 testing for prolonged fixation cases due to unavoidable circumstances.
