Popis: e17529 Background: Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) is a rare tumor with an excellent prognosis. With the advent of multiagent chemotherapy, cure rate improved to nearly 100% in the low-risk group (LR). However, in developing countries it is lower, especially in the high risk (HR) group. Herein, we describe our experience with management and survival of GTN over a 14y period. Methods: Retrospective study based on case review of women with newly diagnosed GTN between 2005 and 2019 at Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Neoplasicas (INEN), Lima- Peru. Primary outcome measure was complete remission (CR) by 12 months following completion of therapy and 3y overall survival (OS). Risk score was established according to the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) with patients with scores < 7 and ≥7 being classified as LR and HR, respectively. A subgroup with score ≥13 was defined as ultra-high risk (UHR) group. Results: 172 patients with GTN were included, median age was 30 years (range 18-54 y). Choriocarcinoma was the most frequent histology in 54.6%, however, in 38% it was not determined. The most common metastatic sites were lungs (66%) and brain (15%). Median FIGO risk score was 10 points (range 1- 21). Accordingly, 8% and 82% of patients belong to LR and HR group; 41% of patients with HR had a score ≥13. Regarding treatment, 5 patients (16%) in the LR group were treated with surgery only and 84% received oral methotrexate; while all patients in the HR group received multidrug chemotherapy: 85% received etoposide, methotrexate and dactinomycin (EMA)/ cyclophosphamide and vincristine (CO), 10.6% received etoposide, methotrexate, actinomycin-D (EMA)/ etoposide and cisplatin (EP) and 2% received other regimens. CR was ultimately achieved in 83% of cases overall (100%, 80% and 73% in LR, HR and UHR group, respectively). 16% had persistent disease and relapse occurred in 5% of patients who had previously achieved CR. Early death (within 4 weeks of initiating therapy) occurred in 4.6% (8/31). 3y-OS was 82%, after excluding early deaths, the survival rate was 86%. Conclusions: In our series, HR disease is the most frequent presentation and almost half of this cases correspond to the UHR group. Remission rate in the LR group is similar to that reported in other series, however it is lower in HR and UHR group. Having said this, it represents the data of a high-risk cohort of patients in a resource-constraint setting. This data is being used to identify strategies for improvement of results, especially in ultra-high risk group.
