Case Report: A Durable Response to Camrelizumab and Apatinib Combination Therapy in a Heavily Treated Small Cell Carcinoma of the Ovary, Hypercalcemic Type.

ABSTRACT: Small cell carcinoma of the ovary, hypercalcemic type (SCCOHT) is a rare and highly aggressive malignancy with a poor prognosis. Most patients experience recurrence even after surgery and chemotherapy, and there are no standard treatment options for recurrent disease. Here, we report the case of a 36-year-old woman with SCCOHT who underwent primary cytoreductive surgery without adjuvant chemotherapy and remained disease-free for 9 months. She then developed retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis and was treated with two cycles of bleomycin/etoposide/cisplatin chemotherapy. However, the disease progressed and the patient received four cycles of liposomal doxorubicin/ifosfamide chemotherapy, followed by local radiation to the enlarged retroperitoneal lymph nodes. She achieved partial remissio
