Apollo Graphql: How to prevent refetch function from fetching all the records if same variables are provided

I'm using Apollo GraphQL client to fetch the data from Shopify storefront APIs. There is a marketplace page which lists all the products and a filter panel.

I'm using Apollo client's useLazyQuery to avoid the very first fetch on the component initialization, rather I use refetch in the useEffect providing all the initial filters as variables. I also use relayStylePagination for cursor based pagination of the records.

function ProductsList() {
const [_, {data, loading, refetch, fetchMore}] = useLazyQuery(PRODUCTS, {
   collection: 'featuredProducts'
});

const productEdges = data?.collection?.products?.edges;
const pageInfo = data?.collection?.products?.pageInfo;

const loadMoreProducts = React.useCallback(() => {
    if (pageInfo?.hasNextPage) {
      fetchMore({
        variables: {
          cursor: pageInfo.endCursor,
        },
      });
    }
}, [fetchMore, pageInfo?.endCursor, pageInfo?.hasNextPage]);

React.useEffect(() => {
    refetch({
        filters: filters
    })
}, [filters]);


return <div>
    <ListProducts products={productEdges} />
    <Button onClick={loadMoreProducts}>Load More</Button>
</div>
}

The problem is, when I fetch five pages by clicking on the Load More button, visit one of the last products detail page, come back on the listing page, I don't see all the previous records. The refetch again fetches the first set of products. I don't want the refetch to fetch products if they are already there in the cache for same filters (including pagination).

I tried various fetchPolicy and nextFetchPolicy options but none of them worked.
