This review discusses the relapse of penile cancer patients after cisplatin-based chemotherapy and explores the available chemotherapy and targeted therapies for salvage second line systemic treatment. It also summarizes the ongoing interventional clinical trials using immune and human papilloma virus-based therapies.
Most patients with advanced penile cancer will have relapsed disease after cisplatin-based combination chemotherapy. Unfortunately, these patients have dismal outcomes with salvage chemotherapy, surgery, or radiation. In this review we will discuss the available chemotherapy and targeted therapies for salvage second line systemic treatment for patients with penile cancer. We will also summarize the ongoing interventional clinical trials using immune and human papilloma virus-based therapies. (c) 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
