Ovarian cancer remains the most lethal gynecological malignant tumor, with relapse occurring in approximately 70% of advanced cases. Anlotinib is an oral small-molecule multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor that can resist neoangiogenesis and inhibit tumor growth. Previous research demonstrated clinical antitumor activity of anlotinib in various cancers. We report the case of an elderly woman with advanced ovarian cancer who received anlotinib after failure of multiple-line chemotherapy. A partial response was observed after six cycles of anlotinib monotherapy, with a reduction in the size of the metastases and significantly decreased serum CA125 levels from 1832.7 U/mL to 118.7 U/mL. She continued to take anlotinib, with a progression-free survival time of more than 4 months. Only mild hypertension was observed during the treatment. Anlotinib monotherapy may be a novel therapeutic option for patients with advanced ovarian cancer.

Second Look

After primary surgery, 125 patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics [FIGO] 1c + IIb + IIc = 22 patients, FIGO III = 82 patients, FIGO IV = 21 patients) were randomly allocated to receive PC (cisplatin 50 mg/m2 + cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2 on day 1 every 28 days) (corrected) or PAC (PC + doxorubicin 45 mg/m2). After six cycles, patients clinically disease-free or with resectable residual disease were submitted to second-look surgery. After restaging, patients in surgical complete response (CR) stopped treatment while those responding partially (PR) received six more courses; patients whose disease progressed were excluded from the study. Among patients with measurable disease, the following clinical response rates were observed: PC = 20% CR, 34.3% PR, 14.3% stable disease, and 31.4% progression; PAC = 40.6% CR, 15.6% PR, 12.5% stable disease, and 31.3% progression. In the 75 patients submitted to second look, the results have been the following: PC = 39.5% CR, 36.8% PR, 7.9% stable disease, and 15.8% progression; PAC = 62.2% CR, 18.9% PR, 10.8% stable disease, and 8.1% progression. The difference in surgical complete response in favor of the PAC regimen is significant (P less than .05). Median survival and progression-free survival were 800 and 400 days, respectively, for PAC arm; median survival and progression-free survival were 680 and 380 days, respectively, for PC. These differences are not significant. Probability of survival was affected by FIGO stage, amount of residual disease, histology, performance status, and response at second look, while no influence was observed according to grade of tumor differentiation and age. Our results demonstrate the usefulness of doxorubicin in terms of surgical CR.

PurposePazopanib is an oral, multikinase inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) -1/-2/-3, platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) -α/-β, and c-Kit. Preclinical and clinical studies support VEGFR and PDGFR as targets for advanced ovarian cancer treatment. This study evaluated the role of pazopanib maintenance therapy in patients with ovarian cancer whose disease did not progress during first-line chemotherapy.Patients and MethodsNine hundred forty patients with histologically confirmed cancer of the ovary, fallopian tube, or peritoneum, International Federation Gynecology Obstetrics (FIGO) stages II-IV, no evidence of progression after primary therapy consisting of surgery and at least five cycles of platinum-taxane chemotherapy were randomized 1:1 to receive pazopanib 800 mg once per day or placebo for up to 24 months. The primary end point was progression-free survival by RECIST 1.0 assessed by the investigators.ResultsMaintenance pazopanib prolonged progression-free survival compared with placebo (hazard ratio [HR], 0.77; 95% CI, 0.64 to 0.91; P = .0021; median, 17.9 v 12.3 months, respectively). Interim survival analysis based on events in 35.6% of the population did not show any significant difference. Grade 3 or 4 adverse events of hypertension (30.8%), neutropenia (9.9%), liver-related toxicity (9.4%), diarrhea (8.2%), fatigue (2.7%), thrombocytopenia (2.5%), and palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (1.9%) were significantly higher in the pazopanib arm. Treatment discontinuation related to adverse events was higher among patients treated with pazopanib (33.3%) compared with placebo (5.6%).ConclusionPazopanib maintenance therapy provided a median improvement of 5.6 months (HR, 0.77) in progression-free survival in patients with advanced ovarian cancer who have not progressed after first-line chemotherapy. Overall survival data to this point did not suggest any benefit. Additional analysis should help to identify subgroups of patients in whom improved efficacy may balance toxicity (NCT00866697).

Debulking surgery associated with chemotherapy represent the backbone of ovarian cancer therapy. Adding bevacizumab has improved survival. Recently, PARP inhibitors were added in the first line as maintenance treatment for the patients who achieve a complete or partial response. These drugs act by blocking the activity of the PARP enzyme responsible for base-excision repair, and have shown positive responses when used for tumors lacking homologous recombination. Olaparib, niraparib and veliparib were evaluated and showed an increase in the duration of progression-free survival: 22.1 months (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.59), 13.8 (HR = 0.62) and 23.5 (HR = 0.68) with olaparib, niraparib and veliparib, respectively. This review describes the benefit of PARP inhibitors as maintenance therapy and discusses the efficacy according to breast cancer gene and homologous recombination status.

Aim: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPIs) improved progression-free survival among patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. This meta-analysis examined the effectiveness of PARPIs as maintenance strategy for newly diagnosed patients with advanced high-grade ovarian cancer with or without mutations. Materials & methods: Using defined selection criteria, a literature search identified four eligible randomized clinical trials involving 2386 patients. Results: Compared with placebo maintenance, PARPIs achieved a 46% reduction in the risk of progression or death as compared with placebo (hazard ratio: 0.54; 95% CI: 0.39–0.73; p < 0.0001). That benefit was shown in all clinical subgroups: among those with BRCA mutation, with negative/unknown BRCA mutation, and in those with homologous recombination deficient tumors. Data about the effect on overall survival are still premature. Conclusion: In patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer, PARPIs maintenance after standard therapy achieved a significant improvement in progression-free survival as compared with placebo, overall and in all subgroups.
