Recently, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), represented by inhibitors of programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), have emerged as a potential gastric cancer (GC) therapy.<h4>Case presentation</h4>This case study aimed to reveal the tumor response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with camrelizumab in a patient with AGC based on the characteristics of the clinical pathology, genomics variation, and gut microbiome. This evidence concerns the gene PDCD1 and gastric cancer.
