Prognostic role of ARID1A negative expression in gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT: AT-rich interactive domain 1A (ARID1A) functions as a tumor suppressor and several therapeutic targets in ARID1A-mutated cancers are under development. Here, we investigated the prognostic value of ARID1A for gastric cancer and its association with expression of PD-L1 and p53. ARID1A expression was examined by immunohistochemistry and negative expression of ARID1A was detected in 39 (19.5%) of 200 cases in a test cohort and in 40 (18.2%) of 220 cases in a validation cohort. Negative expression of ARID1A was associated with worse overall survival in undifferentiated cases, particularly early-stage cases. Negative expression of ARID1A was detected in 11 (50%) of 22 PD-L1-positive cases and in 68 (17.1%) of 398 PD-L1-negative cases in a combined cohort. Negative expression of ARID1A was detec
