Tumor mutation burden (TMB) may predict response to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy, but its clinical utility in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic breast cancer remains unclear. In this case report, we describe a 63-year-old woman with ER-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer who had exhausted standard treatment options. Comprehensive genomic profiling of the pancreatic metastatic tissue revealed a TMB of 33 mutations per megabase (mut/Mb), consistent with TMB-high status. Based on this result, pembrolizumab therapy was initiated in October 2022. Subsequent imaging demonstrated a complete response, with disappearance of FDG uptake in the pancreatic, renal, and lung metastases on positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). Tumor marker levels also normalized, and this response has been maintained as of January 2026. This case highlights the potential utility of TMB-high status as a predictive biomarker for ICI therapy in ER-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. Although this subtype is typically considered less immunogenic, TMB-high may identify patients who could benefit from immune checkpoint blockade.

Both ovarian tumors showed adenocarcinoma composed of small nests and cords.

However, its use in synchronous endometrial and ovarian cancer (SEOC) remains rare, and standardized treatment strategies have yet to be established. We report the case of a 26-year-old woman diagnosed with SEOC, characterized as grade 1, stage IA endometrioid carcinoma of both the endometrium and ovary. Genetic analysis ruled out hereditary cancer syndromes, including Lynch syndrome. The patient was treated with medroxyprogesterone acetate for 26 weeks, after which histological evaluation confirmed complete remission. She subsequently achieved two spontaneous pregnancies, both resulting in uncomplicated vaginal deliveries. To our knowledge, this is the fifth reported case of childbirth following fertility-sparing treatment for SEOC and the first involving two successful deliveries.</p>","PeriodicalId":13703,"journal":{"name":"International Cancer Conference Journal","volume":"15 3","pages":"375-380"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2026-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13375991/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148578637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
