Evolution of Treatment Strategies for Gestational Trophoblastic Neoplasia: Chemotherapy, Immunotherapy, and Molecular Targeted Therapy.

Opinion statement: In addressing Gestational Trophoblastic Neoplasia (GTN), it is imperative to acknowledge the evolving landscape of treatment options, especially in light of the challenges posed by traditional methods. While historically, surgical interventions, radiation therapy, and chemotherapeutic agents have been the mainstays, the emergence of resistance and high-risk scenarios necessitates a reevaluation of our therapeutic approaches. Our review highlights the promising advancements in immunotherapy and molecular targeted therapy as viable alternatives for GTN management. The introduction of immune checkpoint inhibitors and kinase inhibitors offers a paradigm shift, particularly for patients resistant to conventional chemotherapy regimens. These novel therapies not only exhibit efficacy but also demonstrate manageable toxicity profiles, particularly in high-risk cases. However, integrating these innovative treatments into established international guidelines presents a formidable task. As we move forward, it is imperative that future research not only prioritizes fertility preservation but also rigorously evaluates long-term toxicity implications. International collaboration becomes pivotal in addressing the nuances of this rare and complex disease. In conclusion, our review underscores the need for a nuanced approach to GTN treatment, one that prioritizes reduced toxicity and improved quality of life. By embracing the advancements in immunotherapy and molecular targeted therapy, we can pave the way for more effective and patient-centered care in the management of GTN.
