| ESCAT: clinical review pendingBIO-MSI-STATUS | MSI-H | IA |
Evidence cited from clinical guidelines; per-source evidence levels not yet structured. See Phase-2-of-CIViC-pivot for re-cite roadmap. | MSI-H (microsatellite instability-high) CRC is the primary biomarker for first-line pembrolizumab monotherapy (KEYNOTE-177; mPFS 16.5 vs 8.2 mo, HR 0.60; FDA-approved 2020 for 1L mCRC MSI-H). Pembrolizumab is also FDA-approved tumor-agnostically for MSI-H/dMMR solid tumors (KEYNOTE-158, 2017). MSS/pMMR CRC does not benefit from ICI monotherapy. MSI-H (~5% of metastatic CRC) is typically detected by PCR-based fragment analysis or NGS; result correlates closely with IHC-based dMMR testing (MLH1/MSH2/MSH6/PMS2 loss). Threshold selection (MSI-H positive/negative) enforced by algorithm layer; this BMA entry surfaces ESCAT tier context only. For Lynch syndrome germline implications see BMA entries for BIO-MLH1 / BIO-MSH2 / BIO-MSH6 / BIO-PMS2. | pembrolizumab monotherapy (MSI-H 1L mCRC per SRC-KEYNOTE-177-ANDRE-2020, SRC-NCCN-COLON-2025) pembrolizumab monotherapy (tumor-agnostic MSI-H per SRC-ESMO-CRC-2024) |
