Abstract Text | Patients with ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) have a poor prognosis because they show low sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy. New treatments for refractory OCCC are urgently needed.We present a patient with refractory OCCC in whom conventional chemotherapy failed. Cachexia was induced by the disseminating recurrent tumors. Tumor tissue staining and genomic analysis revealed PD-L1 negativity, a low tumor burden, stable microsatellite instability, and two mutations in ARID1A. The patient was administered pembrolizumab combined with bevacizumab triweekly. Her serum CA-125 level decreased dramatically after the first cycle. A computerized tomography scan showed marked regression of the recurrent masses after 3 cycles, and the patient reached complete remission after 9 cycles. She showed good recovery from cachexia. We observed no marked side effects except for mild polyarthritis of the small joints.The therapeutic effect of checkpoint inhibitors combined with angiogenesis inhibitors is very promising in our patient with OCCC. Further clinical trials of tumors including ARID1A mutations are warranted. |

ARID1A Y788* ARID1A M1154fs | ovarian clear cell carcinoma | predicted - sensitive | Bevacizumab + Pembrolizumab | Case Reports/Case Series | Actionable | In a clinical case study, a patient with ovarian clear cell carcinoma harboring both ARID1A Y788* and M1154fs was sensitive to the combination therapy of Keytruda (pembrolizumab) and Avastin (bevacizumab), demonstrating a decrease in serum marker, tumor regression after 3 cycles, and complete remission after 9 cycles of treatment (PMID: 33292376). | 33292376 |
