Zolbetuximab (IMAB362) is under investigation for treating advanced gastrointestinal tumors because it targets Claudin18.2 (CLDN18.2). CLDN18.2 is a promising molecule along with the presence of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 in gastric cancer. This study evaluated cell block (CB) preparations of serous cavity effusions for the feasibility for CLDN18.2 protein expression and compared the results with those of biopsy or resection specimens. The association of CLDN18.2 expression in effusion samples and the clinicopathological features were also investigated.
