Durable Complete Response to Pembrolizumab in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma With Divergent Microsatellite Status: A Case Report
Microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) is widely believed to be a biomarker for immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) such as pembrolizumab in solid tumors. However, due to the low prevalence of MSI-H in most cancers, it tends to be insufficient to identify whether patients should receive ICIs accord...
