Complete Response With Trametinib in Advanced Low-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma: A Case Report.

ABSTRACT

Low-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (LGSOC) is an uncommon subtype of ovarian cancer, and it is usually associated with reduced sensitivity to chemotherapy and worse outcomes. We present a case involving a 45-year-old female patient diagnosed with stage III-C low-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (LGSOC) in 2013. She achieved a complete response for 29 months after undergoing platinum-based chemotherapy and interval cytoreduction. However, in 2016, both local and distant relapses were observed. As there was no benefit from hormonal therapy and the patient refused chemotherapy, bevacizumab was initiated, resulting in disease stabilization for 30 months. At disease progression, trametinib was proposed, and the patient experienced an ongoing sustained complete response for over 36 months. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report, outside of a clinical trial, regarding a complete response with single agent MEK inhibitor therapy in a patient with recurrent LGSOC, with unknown BRAF V600E mutation. We present the following case in accordance with the CAse REports (CARE) checklist.
