Background:

Suppression of the immune microenvironment is a crucial cause of postoperative tumor recurrence. We constructed an immune infiltration classifier based on immunosuppressive indicators to predict recurrence and guide postoperative treatment for gastric cancer (GC).
Materials and methods: Immunohistochemical analysis was performed for 825 GC tissues to evaluate immunosuppressive indicators. An immunosuppressive recurrence score (IRS) based on six immunosuppressive indicators was determined using the Lasso Cox method to predict recurrence outcomes. The association between immune infiltration and IRS was assessed using immunohistochemistry and multiplexed immunofluorescence staining.
Results:

The IRS showed remarkable accuracy and reliability for predicting the recurrence outcome. Moreover, elevated IRS was associated with locoregional recurrence and failure of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. We also identified that the increased IRS indicated the inhibition of anti-tumor effect of CD8+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in the invasive margin (IM).
Conclusion:
IRS can predict the recurrence outcome of GC patients by comprehensively distinguishing the immune infiltration status, which assists in the selection of different adjuvant treatment options.
