A Phase Ib/II Study of Lenvatinib and Pembrolizumab in Advanced Endometrial Carcinoma (Study 111/KEYNOTE-146): Long-Term Efficacy and Safety Update

Vicky Makker et al.

Summary: Clinical Trial Updates provide an opportunity to disseminate additional results from studies, published in JCO or elsewhere, for which the primary end point has already been reported. In this study, researchers reported the long-term follow-up efficacy and safety data of lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab in previously treated advanced endometrial carcinoma patients, which showed extended efficacy and tolerability.

Current Evidence-Based Systemic Therapy for Advanced and Recurrent Endometrial Cancer

Sushmita Gordhandas et al.

Summary: Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecologic malignancy worldwide, and its incidence and mortality are increasing. Systemic treatment options for advanced or recurrent EC have historically been limited, but with the identification of distinct EC subgroups and molecular drivers, precision oncology approaches and treatment advancements have emerged. This review provides an overview of current therapeutic options for advanced and recurrent EC and references the NCCN Guidelines for Uterine Neoplasms for diagnostic and management recommendations.

Summary: The American Cancer Society predicts that there will be 1,958,310 new cancer cases and 609,820 cancer deaths in the United States in 2023. While incidence trends for most cancers are favorable, prostate cancer saw a significant increase of 3% annually from 2014 to 2019. However, the overall cancer death rate continues to decline due to advances in treatment, with a 33% reduction since 1991.

Endometrial cancer

Emma J. Crosbie et al.

Summary: Endometrial cancer is the most common gynaecological cancer in high income countries, with a global rise in incidence. Obesity is the major underlying cause, posing challenges for diagnosis and treatment. Early presentation with postmenopausal bleeding ensures cure, but advanced cases have poor prognosis. Minimally invasive surgical staging and targeted chemotherapeutic strategies are important advances.

Assessment of Outcomes Associated With the Use of Newly Approved Oncology Drugs in Medicare Beneficiaries

Angela K. Green et al.

Summary: This study compared the differences in survival, duration of therapy, and treatment patterns between clinical trial patients and older adults with Medicare receiving cancer drugs for metastatic solid cancers in usual practice. The results showed that Medicare patients did not live as long as treated clinical trial participants and commonly received treatment modifications, indicating a lack of generalizability of cancer clinical data to Medicare beneficiaries with cancer.

Toxicity and efficacy of the combination of pembrolizumab with recommended or reduced starting doses of lenvatinib for treatment of recurrent endometrial cancer

Jeffrey A. How et al.

Summary: In recurrent endometrial cancer patients, pembrolizumab/lenvatinib combination therapy with a lower starting dose of lenvatinib (14 mg daily) was found to be safe and effective. There were no significant differences in response rates, survival outcomes, and toxicity between the recommended dose group and reduced dose group. However, the recommended dose group required more lenvatinib dose reductions and experienced quicker onset of treatment toxicity.
