الوصف: Aim Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are less effective in mismatch repair (MMR)‐proficient (pMMR) colorectal cancers (CRCs) than in MMR‐deficient CRCs. Here, we investigated changes in the tumor microenvironment after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) without radiotherapy in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) and the potential of ICIs as therapeutic agents for pMMR CRCs. Methods This was an ad hoc analysis of a KSCC1301 randomized phase II trial in which patients with untreated resectable LARC were randomly assigned to receive S‐1 and oxaliplatin or folinic acid, 5‐fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin as NAC. Forty‐nine patients were studied in this ad hoc analysis. As a reference cohort, we assessed 25 rectal cancer patients who underwent surgery without NAC outside the randomized trial. Immune checkpoint molecules (ICMs; PD‐1, PD‐L1, CTLA‐4, LAG3), tumor‐infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs; CD8, FOXP3), and other related proteins were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) using Oncomine™ Comprehensive Assay version 3 was conducted in 23 patients. Results The expression levels of PD‐1, CTLA‐4, and LAG3 in the NAC group were significantly higher than in reference patients ( p < 0.001). Additionally, the infiltration of CD8+ and FOXP3+ T cells, and the CD8/FOXP3 ratio were significantly higher in the NAC group than in reference patients ( p < 0.0001). NGS analysis revealed no specific gene alteration related to TILs or ICMs. Conclusion We demonstrated changes in the tumor immune microenvironment after NAC in pMMR rectal cancer. NAC was associated with increased expression of ICMs and TILs. Rectal cancer could be susceptible to combined immunotherapy with chemotherapy.
