Standard treatment for ovarian cancer is surgery and chemotherapy based on paclitaxel and platinum. However, traditional chemotherapy for ovarian cancer is limited by drug resistance and systemic side effects. It is imperative to explore effective treatment options for refractory ovarian cancer.Case Presentation: A 52-year-old female initially presented with lower abdominal distension and migratory pain. After the laparoscopic exploration and biopsy, immunohistochemistry showed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma originated from ovarian (cT3NxM1, stage IV, peritoneal and abdominal wall metastasis). The next generation sequence detected ERRFI1 (T187A, exon4) mutation.Results: The patient received first-line chemotherapy (paclitaxel, nedaplatin plus avastin), followed by maintenance therapy with gefitinib, achieving a 15-month progression-free survival (PFS). After disease progression and second-line treatment failure, endostar plus apatinib was administered for 14 cycles and she obtained a PFS of 14 months without long-term adverse events.Conclusion: We believe that the ERRFI1 gene may be a potential target of gefitinib. Importantly, endostar combined with apatinib is worth recommending for maintenance treatment in refractory ovarian cancer.Keywords: ovarian cancer, antiangiogenic therapy, endostar, apatinib, gefitinibXiao CXu FWang RLiang QShen KXu JLiu LDove Medical Pressarticleovarian cancerantiangiogenic therapyendostarapatinibgefitinibNeoplasms.
