Abstract

Background: Effective management with second-line therapy with the lenvatinib + pembrolizumab regimen for patients with advanced endometrial cancer is necessary.

Methods: This retrospective study enrolled patients with endometrial cancer treated with the lenvatinib + pembrolizumab regimen. We evaluated progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), safety for patients non-eligible for the KEYNOTE775 trial, aged ≥65 years, or with ECOG performance status 1-2.

Results: Forty-five patients were analyzed: 21 (47%) were aged ˃ 65 years, 16 (36%) had performance status 1-2, and 15 (33%) were non-eligible for KEYNOTE775 trial participation. Overall, the median PFS was 8.5 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 4.6-12.4), and the median OS was 15.6 months (95% CI 9.4-NA). Median PFS was significantly shorter in patients not eligible for KEYNOTE775 participation and with performance status 1-2. The median OS was significantly shorter in patients with performance status 1-2. Grade ˃3 adverse events (AEs) occurred in 78% of patients who received the lenvatinib + pembrolizumab regimen. AEs resulted in lenvatinib dose reductions in 35 patients (78%) and lenvatinib and pembrolizumab discontinuation in 3 (7%) and 5 (11%), respectively. The median time to the first lenvatinib dose reduction was 1.5 (0.92-2.3) months in all patients and was significantly shorter in patients aged >65 years.

Conclusions: The current regimen has favorable efficacy and manageable safety with appropriate dose reduction of lenvatinib in the real world. However, the efficacy may be inferior in patients with performance status 1 or 2, heavily treated patients, and those with organ dysfunction. The current treatment status should reflect real-world data relative to the medical environment and management.

期刊介绍: The International Journal of Clinical Oncology (IJCO) welcomes original research papers on all aspects of clinical oncology that report the results of novel and timely investigations. Reports on clinical trials are encouraged. Experimental studies will also be accepted if they have obvious relevance to clinical oncology. Membership in the Japan Society of Clinical Oncology is not a prerequisite for submission to the journal. Papers are received on the understanding that: their contents have not been published in whole or in part elsewhere; that they are subject to peer review by at least two referees and the Editors, and to editorial revision of the language and contents; and that the Editors are responsible for their acceptance, rejection, and order of publication.
