Immunotherapy is now recognized as an innovative approach for cancers. It is worth exploring how to best use immunotherapy in neoadjuvant therapy to achieve better clinical benefit. Therefore, this paper reviews the progress of immunotherapy in neoadjuvant therapy for GC. Further studies and the understanding of immune system function by neoadjuvant therapy combined with immunotherapy will help to improve the treatment of gastric cancer.
