AbstractColorectal cancer treatment has evolved considerably in the last decade with the development of immunotherapies. Immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies have brisk and durable responses in patients with advanced microsatellite instability-high colorectal cancer, both surgically resectable and unresectable; however, patients with microsatellite stable colorectal cancer in general do not respond to the same therapy. Emerging evidence shows that immune checkpoint inhibitors may elicit responses in subsets of patients with microsatellite stable colorectal cancer, especially when combined with other anticancer agents that can modulate the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, rationally designed therapeutic combinations involving immune checkpoint inhibitors, as well as the development of predictive biomarkers for optimal patient selection, have emerged as two key areas of active research. In addition, other immunotherapeutic agents such as cell-based therapies and bispecific T-cell engagers are beginning to be studied in preclinical and early-phase settings. Although by no means a universal treatment strategy, immunotherapy can elicit responses in microsatellite stable colorectal cancer and further research is needed to extend their benefit to patients with microsatellite stable colorectal cancer. Here, we review the current state of immunotherapeutic regimens for microsatellite stable colorectal cancer.
