These results support a potential role of the palbociclib-letrozole combination as treatment for hormone receptor-positive advanced/recurrent endometrial cancer. Based on these encouraging results, phase III evaluation of letrozole combined with a CDK4/6 inhibitor is planned.

Metformin combined with MA may provide an effective option for fertility-sparing treatment of AEH and grade 1 stage IA EAC, and the clinical benefits of metformin for controlling MA-induced weight gain and promoting endometrial expressions of IGFBP-rP1 and p-AMPK while inhibiting p-Akt expression warrants further study.

Leptin is a reliable predictive marker for multitargeted anti-cachectic treatment outcomes. Thus, it can be an ideal candidate for monitoring and predicting the effects of anti-cachectic treatment and a surrogate marker of the immune-metabolic actions of the selected drugs.

Se sugiere utilizar bevacizumab u olaparib más bevacizumab en pacientes con CEO estadios III/IV BRCA1/2 negativo o desconocido (HRD positivo) que recibieron quimioterapia basada en platino más bevacizumab y obtuvieron RC/RP...Para pacientes con CEO de alto grado avanzado o metastásico en recaída platino-sensibles se sugiere: • Quimioterapia combinada basada en platino: carboplatino/doxorrubicina liposomal o carboplatino/paclitaxel o carboplatino/ nab-paclitaxel o carboplatino/docetaxel o carboplatino/gemcitabina, por seis ciclos. Si no se tolera la terapia combinada, dar carboplatino o cisplatino solo. • Quimioterapia combinada: carboplatino/gemcitabina o carboplatino/paclitaxel o carboplatino/doxorubicina liposomal, más bevacizumab, seguida de bevacizumab como mantenimiento (hasta progresión o toxicidad)...El paclitaxel semanal o la doxorrubicina liposomal pegilada o el topotecan pueden ser administrados con o sin bevacizumab. • Existen otros agentes que se consideran potencialmente act ivos (capecitabina, ciclofosfamida, ifosfamida, irinotecán, oxaliplatino, pemetrexed, vinorelbina, ciclofosfamida), que se podrían recomendar para líneas posteriores. • Las pacientes con receptores hormonales positivos que no toleran o no tienen respuesta a los regímenes citotóxicos pueden recibir terapia hormonal con tamoxifeno u otros agentes, incluidos los inhibidores de la aromatasa (anastrozol y letrozol) o acetato de leuprolide o acetato de megestrol...El niraparib podría ser útil en pacientes BRCA 1/2 +/-/desconocido, al igual que el rucaparib, sin embargo, este último no tiene aún aprobación del ente regulador en Colombia. Conclusiones: se espera que las recomendaciones emitidas en este consenso contribuyan a mejorar la atención clínica, el impacto oncológico y la calidad de vida de estas mujeres.

Retrospective cohort study collected data for patients with AEH or EMCA who had an endometrial sample after receiving conservative therapy utilizing either Megestrol acetate or Levonorgestrel Intrauterine device (IUD). Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed on pre- and post- treatment biopsy samples to assess androgen receptor (AR), estrogen receptor (ER), and progesterone receptor (PR) expression...Patients who successfully responded to the treatment demonstrated a significantly greater decrease in IHC scores after the treatment compared to those who did not respond (p = 0.009). Steroid receptor expression could be used as a possible biomarker for response to progestin therapy in patients undergoing conservative management for AEH and EMCA.

Other reported targeted therapies for malignant GCTs included pazopanib in combination with crizotinib, which showed disease control for four months in one patient, and a PI3K inhibitor which achieved disease control for nine months in another patient. Dasatinib and megestrol were ineffective in two other different patients. Pazopanib has been demonstrated to be active in advanced GCTs and may be considered as a preferable treatment option.

No differences in PFS and OS curves were observed; the CBR was 75.0% and 60.4%, respectively. (4) The association of EDP-M + megestrol acetate in ACC pts with a low PS is feasible and well tolerated; its efficacy appeared to be non-inferior to EDP-M administered to pts with a good PS.

This real-world data on RMEC suggests there is a role for progestins in select subgroups of women. The PFS for chemotherapy-naïve patients was 17.9 months (14.3, 27.0), versus 6.2 months (3.9, 14.8) following ≥1 line of treatment. The OS was 29.1 months (17.9, 61.1) for chemotherapy-OS was 29.1 months (17.9, 61.1) for chemotherapy-naïve patients versus 23.0 months (10.5, 37.6) for patients previously exposed.

The patient used Megestrol acetate 160 mg for 3 months...Following the procedure, the pathology report showed low-grade endometrial endometrioid carcinoma (FIGO grade 2).Conclusion Fertility-preserving approaches can be considered as a rare option for P53 Mutant Grade2 endometrioid endometrial cancer patients. However, as seen in our case, despite close monitoring, disease progression has been observed.

The overall response rate to FST was promising, however, the PD rate was significant during the first 12 months of FST. Therefore, performing thorough endometrial biopsy and imaging studies is essential to strictly evaluate the extent of the disease every 3 months from FST initiation.

Conclusions This study demonstrated that most patients with advanced gastrointestinal and pancreatobiliary cancer required MA prescription. The difference in the incidence of VTE was modest between the MA and non-MA prescription groups (not at the level of statistical significance on multivariate analyses).

Our results give support to the role of progesterone in ACC. The involvement of its analog (megestrol acetate) in reducing ACC progression in ACC patients undergoing EDP-M therapy is now under investigation in the PESETA phase II clinical study.

Methods Eligible patients (pts) had metastatic ER+ HER2- BC, and were randomized to receive MA or another HT agent (AHT), Tamoxifen or Exemestane, with 10 pts planned for each arm. Conclusions Translational analysis find evidence of increased transcriptional activity at ER regulated genes in most resistant samples. This could indicate that MA resistant tumours will retain sensitivity to further HT, requiring future research to proof this hypothesis.

Progestin therapy is a viable treatment option in patients with advanced stage and recurrent EC with low toxicity and high ORR in PR positive disease. The role of PR expression in relation to progression free survival and overall survival is unclear.
