Abstract 257P
Background
GTN comprises a unique group of tumours that originate from trophoblastic tissues which includes Invasive mole, choriocarcinoma and Placental site trophoblastic tumour and with proper treatment low-risk GTN is 100% curable. This study was carried out to evaluate the management outcome of low risk GTN patients to the accepted 1st line treatment regimens followed in the hospital.
Methods
205 patients of gestational trophoblastic disease who were registered at the institute between January 2016 and December 2018 were analysed retrospectively. Risk stratification & Staging was done according to Revised FIGO 2002 staging system. All low risk patients were included the study.
Results
Out of 205 ,46 (22%) patients were diagnosed with GTN (low-risk 43/205(21.5%). 37(86.04%) patients received single agent Methotrexate (weekly) while 4 (9.3%) patients received Actinomycin D (bi-weekly) as first line. Methotrexate/LV was given for 2 patients. 67.5%(n = 25/37) achieved Complete Response (CR) on Methotrexate while 32.4%(n = 12/37) went on to get second line.62.5%(n = 10/16) received ACT-D in second line while multi-drug chemotherapy was given to 5 patients (31%,5/16). CR was achieved in 84.62%(n = 11) in 2nd line while 1 patient went on to get 3rd line chemotherapy. Anemia was the most common complication associated with the disease and treatment.
Conclusions
Low- risk GTN is a highly chemo-sensitive tumor and 100% curable. methotrexate as single agent produced 67.5% of complete remission. Single agent methotrexate is still one of the preferred first-line regimes for low risk GTN.
