2 MSI-H mcrc Clinical and Pathological characteristics Immune microenvironment Clinical trials with check-point inhibitors

3 CLASSIC MECHANISMS OF CARCINOGENESIS IN COLORECTAL CANCER Lee GH et al. EJSO 2015

4 MSI-H Microsatellites are tandem repeats of 1 to >10 nucleotides scattered throughout the genome Are particularly prone to DNA replication errors (DNA polymerases errors) Microsatellites sequences are fixed for life and the same in every tissue Insertion or deletions in microsatellites located in the DNA coding regions generate frameshift mutations leading to proteins truncations Evolution endowed eukaryotic cells with a dedicated system to repair mismatches in DNA The loss of mismatch repair system causes mutations (neoantigens) and ultimately cancer Vilar E et al. Nat rev Clin Oncol 2010

5 MSI CCR TUMORS PATHOLOGICAL FEATURES Poorly differentiated - Medullary pattern Mucinous component >50% with signet-ring cells Lack of dirty necrosis Increased tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (mostly T cells CD8+) Prominent inflammatory reaction at the advanced edge of the tumor (Crohn-like reaction) Marginean CE et al. Arch Pathol Lab Med 2017

6 MSI CCR TUMORS CLINICAL FEATURES Older age Female Right-sided (proximal) tumors >70-75 years sporadic tumours <50 years Lynch Syndrome Stage MSI-H II 15-20% III 10-12% IV 4-5%
