Background: DDR mutations are associated with higher neoantigen load and tumor infiltrating lymphocytes, and are a potential biomarker for immunotherapy. We investigated the association of DDR mutations in gastric (GC), esophageal (EC), and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancers with MSI, PD-L1, and TMB, known predictors for immune checkpoint inhibitors. Methods: 20 DDR mutations were tested by Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) with a 592-gene panel on a total of 1935 (709 EC; 831 GC; 355 GEJ) cancers. TMB was assessed by NGS, MSI by NGS or fragment analysis, and PD-L1 by IHC (22c3 for CPS or SP142). Results: GC had the highest DDR mutation rate compared to EC and GEJ (27% vs. 20%, p = 0.0005 and 17%, p = 0.0002, respectively). MSI-High (MSI-H) was significantly more common in the DDR mutated cohort (DDR-M) compared to non-mutated cancers (18% vs. 1%; p < 0.0001). TMB-High (≥ 10 mutations/megabase [mt/MB]) was higher in DDR-M (35% vs. 21%; p < 0.0001); in DDR-M cohort, GC had the highest TMB compared to DDR-M EC and GEJ (mean: 13.8 vs. 9.4 vs. 10 mt/MB, respectively; p < 0.0001). DDR mutations were more frequent in the PD-L1 combined positive score (CPS) ≥ 50 group than CPS 0 (42.9% vs. 24%; p = 0.037) and CPS 1-9 (42.9% vs. 20.6%; p = 0.005). ARID1A, ATRX, BRCA2, and PTEN were the most prevalent DDR mutations in MSI-H (87%, 31%, 25%, 24%, respectively); ARID1A, ATRX, BRCA2, and PTEN in TMB-High (47%, 7.7%, 6.7%, 6.8%) and ARID1A, BRCA2, RAD50, and WRN in PD-L1 high (CPS ≥ 10) (48.5% vs. 5.2% vs. 2.5% vs. 3.4%). Conclusions: MSI-H, TMB-high and high PD-L1 expression were significantly more prevalent in the DDR-M cohort compared to non-DDR-mutated cancers, most pronounced in GC. Alterations in ARID1A, ATRX, BRCA2, and PTEN were correlated with MSI-H and TMB-high while ARID1A, BRCA2, RAD50, and WRN were correlated with increased PD-L1 expression. Our findings may help identify patients for tailored immunotherapy approaches in future clinical trials.
