摘要

Introduction Limited data on the role of pharmacotherapy for patients with locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic vulvar cancer are available. Areas covered This article aims to provide an overview of the current treatment options for patients with vulvar cancer. PubMed (MEDLINE), Embase, CENTRAL, Scopus, and Web of Science databases, as well as ClinicalTrials.gov were searched to review the current evidence as well as future perspectives on the role of pharmacotherapy in patients with vulvar carcinoma. Expert opinion There has been no consensus on the pharmacotherapy for patients with locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic vulvar cancer. Concurrent platinum-based chemoradiation is the most widely used treatment modality for primary treatment or for neoadjuvant settings. Chemotherapy in metastatic disease is considered a palliative treatment. Anti-EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors seem to show promising anti-tumor activity in patients harboring EGFR alteration. Similarly, growing evidence supports the adoption of immune checkpoint inhibitors in both neoadjuvant and metastatic settings. Molecular and genomic profiling is advocated to identify target mutations. The PI3K/AKT/mTOR and HER/ErbB pathways might represent two intriguing treatment options. Treatments directed against HPV are discussed as well. Further evidence is warranted to identify the best treatment modalities for patients with locally advanced, recurrent, and metastatic disease.
