Currently, treatment options for patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer remain limited. The current standard of care treatment for advanced endometrial carcinoma is a platinum doublet chemotherapy. Second-line treatment options overall are very limited. There is no optimal treatment option for patients who show disease progression with first-line therapy. Therefore, novel and more efficacious therapies for patients with advanced or recurrent disease are needed. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have demonstrated a very impressive safety profile and anti-tumor activity in patients with programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) positive endometrial cancer who were pre-treated with chemotherapy. We have done a detailed review of the literature to emphasize the role of immune checkpoint inhibitors in the treatment of metastatic or recurrent endometrial cancer.
目前,晚期或复发性子宫内膜癌患者的治疗选择仍然有限。晚期子宫内膜癌目前的标准治疗方案是铂类双联化疗。总体而言,二线治疗选择非常有限。对于一线治疗出现疾病进展的患者,没有最佳的治疗选择。因此,需要为晚期或复发性疾病患者提供新的、更有效的治疗方法。免疫检查点抑制剂在接受过化疗预处理的程序性死亡配体1(PD-L1)阳性子宫内膜癌患者中显示出非常令人印象深刻的安全性和抗肿瘤活性。我们对文献进行了详细综述,以强调免疫检查点抑制剂在转移性或复发性子宫内膜癌治疗中的作用。
