Pazopanib treatment of a platinum-resistant recurrence of a high-grade Sertoli cell tumor and assessment of the treatment response by FDG-PET/CT: A case report

Ovarian Sertoli cell tumors (SCTs) are rare sex cord tumors (Oliva et al., 2005). The standard treatment for high-grade SCTs is surgery followed by platinum-based chemotherapy. Although platinum-based chemotherapy is also an option for recurrent SCTs (Sigismondi et al., 2012), there is no establishe...

description Ovarian Sertoli cell tumors (SCTs) are rare sex cord tumors (Oliva et al., 2005). The standard treatment for high-grade SCTs is surgery followed by platinum-based chemotherapy. Although platinum-based chemotherapy is also an option for recurrent SCTs (Sigismondi et al., 2012), there is no established chemotherapy regimen for platinum-resistant recurrent SCTs. The effectiveness of pazopanib in treating epithelial ovarian cancer has recently been reported (du Bois et al., 2014; Pignata et al., 2015). In the case described herein, pazopanib was used to treat the platinum-resistant recurrence of a high-grade Sertoli cell tumor, and the response was evaluated by 18F-fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET)-computed tomography (CT). Written informed consent to reporting the case was obtained from the patient.
