摘要

Objective: The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of two multi-agent chemotherapeutic regiments that were previously used at the Institution for treatment of advanced and recurrent endometrial cancer. Methods: A retrospective review of patients with Stage III, IV, and recurrent endometrial cancer who received adjuvant chemotherapy at Roswell Park Cancer Institute over a period of 21 years. Two patient groups were defined based on treatment received: cisplatin, adriamycin, and VP-16 with or without megace (PAV-M), or carboplatin and paclitaxel (CT). Results: Forty-two patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer were included in this review based on regimen received. Median duration of follow up was 55 months. Treatment with PAV-M resulted in more dose modifications compared to CT group (42% vs 11%, respectively). There were no significant differences in disease-free survival or overall survival. Conclusions: PAV/PAV-M is active in patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. However, toxicity associated with this triplet regimen may limit clinical use.
