ABSTRACT
Results of comparative ELISA investigation of pretreatment sPD-1 and sPD-L1 content in blood plasma of 100 gastric cancer patients at various disease stages aged 25 to 81 years are presented. Control group included 60 practically healthy donors aged 18 - 68 years. Plasma sPD-L1 concentrations did not differ between gastric cancer patients and control group, and sPD-1 levels were statistically significantly lower in patients than in healthy donors (p<0.0001). Positive correlation (R=0.38; p=0.003) was revealed between plasma sPD-1 и sPD-L1 levels in control group and negative (R= -0.26; p=0,009) - in gastric cancer patients. ROC curve revealed the best sPD-1 cut-off level (< 21 pg/ml) with 77% sensitivity and 63.3% specificity, which is not sufficient for its application as diagnostic marker. Statistically significant increase of plasma sPD-L1 from stage I to stage IIIC (R=0.50; p=0.000011) was found. Analysis of associations between the evaluated markers' levels and indices of gastric cancer expansion according to TNM system revealed statistically significant positive associations of plasma sPD -L1 levels with T (tumor invasiondepth) and N (number of affected lymph nodes) indices R=0.33; p=0.00093, and R=0.27; p=0.0099 respectively. sPD-L1 level was significantly increased in patients with low differentiated adenocarcinoma and cricoid-cell cancer as compared to highly differentiated adenocarcinoma (p=0.02 and p=0.004 respectively); in patients with cricoid-cell cancer it was also higher than in those with moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma (p=0.043) and undifferentiated cancer (p=0.049). Plasma sPD-1 level did not depend on disease stage, TNM system indices and tumor histological structure. Thus, soluble ligand sPD-L1, but not its receptor sPD-1, plasma level is increased in patients with unfavorable clinical and morphological characteristics, may be regarded as potentially valuable prognostic factor for gastric cancer patients' survival, and probably as a predictor of anti - PD-1/PD-L1 treatment efficiency.
