Giuseppe Caruso: How Local Treatments Maintain Systemic Therapy Benefit in Oligoprogression

Giuseppe Caruso, Gynecology Oncology Specialist at European Institute of Oncology, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Proud of this outstanding team and especially pleased to share my first publication as a supervisor.
Our review, ‘Hold the Line: Local Control Strategies in Oligoprogressive Gynecologic Cancers During Systemic Therapy’, explores a rapidly evolving and highly relevant topic in gynecologic oncology: how local treatments may help maintain the benefit of ongoing effective systemic therapies (often in maintenance setting) in selected patients with oligoprogressive disease.

  • Locoregional therapy may help control oligoprogression during otherwise effective systemic treatment, prolong NEST-FS, and preserve quality of life
  • Strongest evidence supports this strategy in PARPi-treated ovarian cancer
  • Data in endometrial and cervical cancers remain limited and exploratory
  • Combining SBRT with targeted therapies shows promise but lacks standardization
  • Prospective trials are needed to refine selection and treatment sequencing

This is such a timely and engaging topic in gynecologic oncology. Significant advances have been made in recent years – especially for ovarian cancer patients receiving PARPis – but many questions remain open. Excited to contribute to this ongoing discussion and looking forward to the next steps in research.”
