Objective:
There is no consensus on whether platinum doublet chemotherapy or lenvatinib and pembrolizumab (LEN/PEM) is superior for advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. Thus, this study aimed to compare the prognosis and adverse events in patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer treated with platinum doublet chemotherapy or LEN/PEM.
Methods:
We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who received platinum doublet chemotherapy or LEN/PEM at our institution for advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer and had a history of platinum-based chemotherapy between January 2013 and August 2023.
Results:
During the study period, 11 regimens were identified in the platinum doublet chemotherapy group, and 11 regimens were identified in the LEN/PEM group. The objective response rates of the platinum doublet chemotherapy and LEN/ PEM groups were 36.4% and 54.5% (P=0.67), respectively. The 6-month progression-free survival (PFS) rates of the platinum doublet chemotherapy and LEN/PEM groups were 27.3% (95% confidence interval [CI], 13.8%-40.7%) and 70.0% (95% CI, 55.5%-84.5%), respectively. The differences were significant between the two groups. Multivariate analyses of histology, prior lines of chemotherapy, platinum-free intervals, and regimens revealed that the LEN/PEM group had significantly better PFS rates.
Conclusion
Treatment with LEN/PEM resulted in significantly longer PFS than that of treatment with platinum doublet chemotherapy in patients with advanced and recurrent endometrial cancer. However, further large-scale studies are required to validate these findings.

Objective:
To identify a relatively high-risk population in postoperative intermediate-risk cervical cancer and evaluate the effect of platinum-based adjuvant chemotherapy (CT).
Methods:
We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with stage IA2-IIA cervical cancer who had been treated with radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy and classified as the intermediate-risk group for recurrence by postoperative pathological examination from January 2007 to December 2018 at 3 medical centers in Japan. First, patients with intermediate-risk were stratified by histological type and the number of intermediaterisk factors (IRF; large tumor diameter, lymph vascular space invasion, and deep cervical stromal invasion) and then divided into 2 groups: high and low-risk population (estimated 5-year recurrence-free survival [RFS] rate with no further therapy [NFT] <90% and ≥90%, respectively). Second, the efficacy of CT for the high-risk population was evaluated by comparing RFS and overall survival (OS) between the patients receiving CT and those with NFT.
Results:
In total, 133 patients were included in the analysis. Among patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) with all IRF or those with non-SCC with 2 to 3 IRF, the 5-year estimated RFS was <90% when treated with NFT. In this population, adjuvant CT was significantly superior to NFT regarding RFS (log-rank, p=0.014), although there was no statistical difference in OS.
Conclusion
Patients with SCC with all 3 IRFs and those with non-SCC with 2 to 3 IRFs were at high risk for recurrence. Adjuvant CT is a valid treatment option for these populations.
