Abstract Fibrotic colorectal cancers (CRC) are largely microsatellite-stable and display desmoplastic stroma with poor immune infiltration. Here we identify thrombospondin-2 (THBS2) as a key regulator of the immune-exclusionary phenotype in fibrotic CRC. THBS2 is highly expressed by matrix cancer-associated fibroblasts at the tumor front.
