Background/Aim: Programmed death-1 (PD-1)/PD-ligand 1 (PD-L1) blockade therapy is widely used for the treatment of patients with metastatic gastric cancer (GC). However, it is unclear how PD-1 antibodies affect the local immunity related to the growth of peritoneal metastases (PM). The clinical efficacy of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors against PM from GC has not been clearly determined. Materials and Methods: We established a highly metastatic subclone of murine GC cells to the peritoneum, YTNI6P, by in vivo selection and evaluated the effects of intravenous (IV) or intraperitoneal (IP) administration of anti-PD-I antibody on PM in immunocompetent mice model. Phenotypes of immune cells in the spleen and peritoneal metastatic lesions were determined with flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry. Results: IP inoculation of YTN16P (1x10(6)) resulted in multiple mesenteric metastases after 3 weeks. IV and IP administration of anti-PD-ImAb reduced the number of metastases to the mesentery by 30 similar to 40% compared with isotype controls. However, no differences were observed depending on the route of administration. Although splenocyte phenotypes were not altered, the densities of CD8(+) T cells in peritoneal tumors were significantly increased, whereas those of Gr-1(+) myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSC) were significantly reduced in mice treated with anti-PD-1 mAb. Conclusion: PD-1 blockade therapy remodels the cellular immune composition of peritoneal tumors, which can partially suppress the PM from GC regardless of the route of administration. Adding anti-PD-1 antibody to chemotherapeutic regimens may enhance their anti-tumor effects against PM, which can lead to the prolongation of survival of patients with GC with peritoneal involvement.
