Anti-PD-1 therapy plus chemotherapy versus anti-PD-1 therapy alone in patients with high-risk chemorefractory or relapsed gestational trophoblastic neoplasia: a multicenter, retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Synergistic antitumor effects of immunotherapy and chemotherapy have been demonstrated in several solid tumors. However, this combination strategy has not been addressed in gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) cases. We therefore compared the safety and therapeutic effect of anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) therapy combined with chemotherapy versus anti-PD-1 monotherapy among high-risk chemorefractory or relapsed GTN patients.

Methods

This retrospective cohort study was conducted at three teaching hospitals in China. Chemorefractory or relapsed GTN cases receiving anti-PD-1 therapy combined with chemotherapy or anti-PD-1 monotherapy were selected from each center between August 2018 and March 2022. Study endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), tr
