Although antiangiogenic drugs are used to treat gastric cancer (GC), their efﬁcacy remains limited. Cancer-associated ﬁbroblast (CAF)-targeted therapies complement immunotherapy; however, the lack of CAF-speciﬁc markers poses a challenge. Therefore, we developed a CAF angiogenesis prognostic score (CAPS) system to evaluate prognosis and immunotherapy response in patients with GC, aiming to improve patient stratiﬁcation and treatment efﬁcacy.  \nMethods: We assessed patient-derived GC CAFs for promoting angiogenesis using EdU, cell cycle, apoptosis, wound healing, and angiogenesis analysis.  \nResults: We then identiﬁed CAF-angiogenesis-associated differentiallyexpressed genes, leading to the development of CAPS, which included THBS1, SPARC, EDNRA, and VCAN. We used RT-qPCR to conduct gene-level validation, and eight GEO datasets and the HPA database to validate the CAPS system at the gene and protein levels. Six independent GEO datasets were utilized for validation. Overall survival time was shorter in the high- than the low-CAPS group. Immune microenvironment and immunotherapy response analysis showed that the high-CAPS group had a greater tendency toward immune escape and reduced immunotherapy efﬁcacy than the low-CAPS group.  \nDiscussion: CAPS is closely associated with GC prognosis and immunotherapy outcomes. It is therefore an independent predictor of GC prognosis and immunotherapy efﬁcacy.  \nKEYWORDS  \ngastric cancer, bioinformatics, cancer-associated ﬁbroblasts, angiogenesis, micro-vascular  \nFrontiers in Immunology 01 [frontiersin.org](frontiersin.org)  \n1 Introduction  \nGastric cancer (GC) is a common digestive system malignancy and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, with few effective treatments (1) .
