Abstract excerpt
Immunomodulator-targeting therapies are under development in gastric cancer (GC). However, the role of genes modulating anti-tumor immunity in GC remains poorly understood. We investigated the association of variations in genes involved in immunomodulatory pathways with overall survival (OS) in locoregional GC patients. Extracted genomic DNA was analyzed for 35 functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms in genes,...
