Case reports in the literature considering the results of trabectedin therapy in metastatic uLMS [26, 27, 28, 29, 30]

Authors [Ref.], year Sarcoma type Patients, n Cycles of trabectedin Response
Tavella et al. [26], 2017 Metastatic uLMS 1 30 cycles Very good partial response, especially at the pulmonary and pancreatic levels, stable disease at the rest of metastatic sites

Bongiovanni et al. [27], 2015 Metastatic uLMS 1 22 cycles Partial response with good tolerability, maintenance of the response for 10 months after trabectedin withdrawal

Corrado et al. [28], 2011 Metastatic uLMS 1 6 cycles Prolonged clinical response in a heavily pretreated patient with lung metastases of uLMS, improvement of dyspnea symptoms, and acceptable toxicity profile

Amant et al. [29], 2009 Three patients with uLMS, 1 with uterine adenosarcoma, 1 with endometrial stromal sarcoma 5 25 cycles were administered (mean = 5; range: 2–12) Partial response with clinical benefit was noted during 9 months in 1 patient (partial response in an epigastric mass and lung metastasis), whereas stable disease after 3 months was noted in 1 patient and progressive disease in 3 patients
Taken together, the response rate was 1 out of 5 for all patients, and 1 out of 3 uLMS responded

Tewari et al. [30], 2006 Metastatic uLMS 1 12 cycles A 38-year-old patient with an advanced, recurrent, and refractory uLMS (lung metastasis, pelvic progression) responded to trabectedin after failing 4 prior regimens (doxorubicin, gemcitabine, docetaxel, and ifosfamide) with a durable objective response lasting at least 8 months
