Major databases were searched. The hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for overall survival were extracted and pooled. A total of 1915 patients from 11 cohorts were included into the present meta-analysis. The pooled HR was 0.64 (95% CI: 0.42-0.96, P=0.03), suggesting that high CD103+ T cell infiltration is associated with better prognosis. Yet significant heterogeneity was revealed and located in the subgroup of CD4+CD103+ T cells. The pooled result indicated that CD103+ T cell infiltration in solid tumors of the digestive duct may possess predictive value for prognosis. Preclinical studies suggested that CD103+ T cell infiltration could predict response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1 treatment.
