Five year survival by stages • Stage I 85-90% • Stage II 80% • Stage III<25% • Stage IV <10%
Systemic therapy • When and what? • Adjuvant • Initial therapy of Stage III disease – Randall et al. • ?Papillary Serous • Recurrent or Metastatic disease • Endometrial cancer • Hormonal Therapy • Chemotherapy • Novel Agents
Endometrial Cancer “Subtypes” Type I (80%) • related to unopposed estrogen • arises in hyperplastic endometrium • usual local disease • high survival rate • e.g. endometrioid Type II (10%) • not related to unopposed estrogen • arises in atrophic endometrium • often advanced at Dx • low survival rate • e.g. UPSC • 50% relapses
Endometrial Cancer: Prognostic Factors • Grade • Depth of myometrial invasion • Histology - serous/clear cell • Capillary-lymphatic invasion • Age (over 60 yrs PORTEC, over 70 GOG) • Not positive peritoneal cytology (in otherwise Stage I)
Endometrial Cancer: Risk Stratification Low Risk • IA G1/2 • No LVI or age >65 Intermediate Risk • IB and IC G1/2 • IIA High Intermediate Risk (PORTEC) • Any two of: • IC or G3 • Age > 65 • (+/- LVI) High Risk • IC G3 • IIB • Serous and clear cell • Stage I to III

Chemotherapy with AP significantly improved progression-free (when corrected for stage)and overall survival compared with WART • Nevertheless, furtheradvances in efficacy and reduction in toxicity are clearly needed • AP chemo associated with increased acute toxicity • Many centers are now using carboplatin and taxol (less toxic), followed by radiation targeted to sites of initial disease (e.g. pelvis, pelvis and PA) • Heterogeneous group of patients
Adjuvant chemotherapy vs. adjuvant radiotherapy • N= 345, stage Ic G3,IIa- b G3 > 50% myometrial invasion, stage III • TAH, BSO surg staging + nodal sampling • Cyclophosphamide 600mg/m2/ Doxorubicin 45 mg/m2/cisplatin 50 mg/m2 q 28 days x 5 (n=177) • Pelvic Radiotherapy (n=168) Maggi et al BJC 2006

Randomized Trial of Concurrent/Adjuvant ChemoRT for High Risk and Advanced Stage Endometrial Carcinoma • PORTEC 3/ NCIC EN7 • Carien Creutzberg, Netherlands • A Fyles/ P Bessette, NCIC • Rationale • High risk and advanced stage endometrial cancer: increased risk of distant relapse and endometrial carcinoma death • Trials of adjuvant chemotherapy needed; chemoradiation superior efficacy in most cancer sites • Phase II study with promising data on efficacy • toxicity profile requires modification • Quality of life analysis needed

Algorithm for Endometrial Cancer Management Clinical Stage I Risk-based therapy: Prevent over treatment, preserve QoL • Low risk: TAH-BSO alone • Intermediate/High-intermediate risk: vaginal brachytherapy or observe? • High-intermediate risk with LVI: small field or IMRT (EBRT if pNX) • High Risk, serous/clear cell and Stage III • Clinical trials (EN7/PORTEC 3)
Hormonal or Chemotherapy • Treatment intent is palliative • Consider • extent of disease • Rate of growth • Patient symptoms • Performance status • Implications on QL • Sequential therapy • Hormonal therapy followed by chemotherapy
Hormonal Therapy • Progestogens • Medroxy progesterone Acetate or Provera • Tamoxifen • Alternating Tamoxifen and progestogens • Aromatase inhibitors

Active Agents Cisplatin Carboplatin Doxorubicin Cyclophosphamide Paclitaxel Liposomal Doxorubicin Active Combinations CAP CA Taxol/Carboplatin Taxol/Adria/Plat Carbo/Caelyx Chemotherapy
Combination Chemotherapy • Combination chemotherapy – more active than single agent therapy. • Cisplatin/Doxorubicin RR 35-40% • AT+GCSF vs AC RR 40%vs 43% • RCT of CAP vs CA • No advantage with triple chemotherapy regimen • Increased toxicity • CA regimen of choice.

Which Targets in Gynecological Cancers?--- Endometrium • Apoptosis related: • XIAP • BCL-2 • TRAIL • Survivin • Receptors/signaling • EGFR, HER2 etc • Ras, raf, MAPK • Jak/Stat • Akt • pTEN • PI3k • Other cell surface • CA125 • Growth Factors • TGF alpha • Transcription Factors • Myc • Cell Cycle • RB • P53 • Cyclins and cdks • p16 • Invasion/metastasis • MMP • auer • VEGF E.Eisenhauer
CCI-779 • CCI-779 is a macrocyclic lactone • Novel anti-tumor mechanism of action, resulting in inhibition of translation of key proteins regulating G1 phase of cell cycle • Binds to FKBP-12 (FK506 binding protein), inhibiting the function of mTOR and key signaling pathways • In in vitro and in vivo preclinical studies, CCI-779 demonstrated anti-tumor activity against a variety of tumor types
The mTOR Pathway • The PI3-kinase (PI3K) and mTOR pathways are two of the key growth factor-mediated signal transduction pathways that regulate cell growth • Activation of PI3K results in activation of a cascade of signaling kinases including Akt • The mTOR pathway is thought to be activated in parallel by a nutrient-sensing mechanism • PI3K and mTOR cooperate to activate downstream targets that regulate the translation of cell cycle regulatory proteins
