Long-Term Outcome of Aromatase Inhibitor Therapy With Letrozole in Patients With Advanced Low-Grade Endometrial Stromal Sarcoma

Abstract: Letrozole as well as progestins could be the first choice of treatment for patients with recurrent or residual LGESS, which is difficult to resect surgically because of its efficacy and minimal adverse effects.

“…In a series of five patients treated with letrozole, durable partial response was obtained in all three cases administered AI as primary treatment and in one treated with MPA [26]. In another series of five patients treated with letrozole for unresectable peritoneal recurrent ESS two patients achieved complete responses lasting for 96 and 87 months [30]. These tumors were positive for ER, PgR and CD10, and negative for CD117.…”

“…Data on the efficacy of AIs for ESS are scarce, with most published studies being case reports [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. There is a report of complete responses lasting for more than 7 and 14 years in two patients with lung metastases treated with aminoglutethimide (500 mg bid) [28].…”

“…To the best of our knowledge, however, no patients with recurrent ESS who had undergone bilateral salpingo‐oophorectomy experienced CR or PR following treatment with GnRH analog alone. In contrast, aromatase inhibitors have induced CR or PR in several patients . Currently, we do not propose leuprorelin but propose letrozole for the treatment of recurrent ESS.…”
