Abstract
OBJECTIVE Treatment options for heavily pre-treated recurrent ovarian and endometrial cancer are limited. Lenvatinib plus anti-programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) combination therapy has been efficacious in advanced endometrial cancer, but at the recommended dose level, high-grade adverse events occur and lead to drug discontinuation. This study evaluated the feasibility of low-dose lenvatinib plus anti-PD-1 therapy in patients with recurrent ovarian and endometrial cancer. METHODS This is a single-arm, protocol-based pilot study. Patients with recurrent ovarian cancer or endometrial cancer who had at least one line of previous therapy were included and given lenvatinib 8 or 12 mg daily (based on the patient's weight) and anti-PD-1 therapy. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate. RESULTS Twenty-one patients were enrolled, including 15 with ovarian cancer and six with endometrial cancer. All patients were pre-treated, and the median number of lines of previous treatment of the ovarian and endometrial cancer cohorts was three and two, respectively. After a median follow-up of 11.0 months (range 6.8-23.9), the objective response rate for the ovarian cancer and endometrial cancer cohorts was 46.7% (95% CI 21.3% to 73.4%) and 66.7% (95% CI 22.3% to 95.7%), respectively. The median duration of response for the ovarian cancer and endometrial cancer cohorts was 5.3 (95% CI 0 to 11.7) and 6.1 (95% CI 2.4 to 9.8) months, respectively. The median progression-free survival for the ovarian cancer and endometrial cancer cohorts was 4.1 (95% CI 2.6 to 5.6) and 6.6 (95% CI 1.7 to 11.5) months, respectively. No grade 4 or 5 adverse events occurred. Eight (38.1%) patients had a lenvatinib dose reduction. There was no discontinuation of lenvatinib alone, and only one patient discontinued both drugs due to adverse events. CONCLUSION Low-dose lenvatinib in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy showed promising efficacy and favorable tolerability in patients with heavily pre-treated ovarian and endometrial cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ovarian cancer is a significant public health concern with a poor prognosis for epithelial ovarian cancer. To explore the potential of immunotherapy in treating epithelial ovarian cancer, we investigated the immune microenvironments of 52 patients with epithelial ovarian cancer, including 43 with high-grade serous ovarian cancer and 9 with endometrioid ovarian cancer. RESULTS Fresh tumor tissue was analyzed for genetic mutations and various parameters related to immune evasion and infiltration. The mean stromal score (stromal cell infiltration) in high-grade serous ovarian cancer was higher than in endometrioid ovarian cancer. The infiltration of CD8 T cells and exhausted CD8 T cells were found to be more extensive in high-grade serous ovarian cancer. Tumor Immune Dysfunction and Exclusion scores, T cell exclusion scores, and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) scores were also higher in the high-grade serous ovarian cancer group, suggesting that the number of cytotoxic lymphocytes in the tumor microenvironment of high-grade serous ovarian cancer is likely lower compared to endometrioid ovarian cancer. CONCLUSIONS The high mean stromal score and more extensive infiltration and exhaustion of CD8 T cells in high-grade serous ovarian cancer indicate that high-grade serous ovarian cancer exhibits a higher level of cytotoxic T cell infiltration, yet these T cells tend to be in a dysfunctional state. Higher Tumor Immune Dysfunction and Exclusion scores, T cell exclusion scores, and CAF scores in high-grade serous ovarian cancers suggest that immune escape is more likely to occur in high-grade serous ovarian cancer, thus endometrioid ovarian cancer may be more conducive to immunotherapy. Therefore, it is crucial to design immunotherapy clinical trials for ovarian cancer to distinguish between high-grade serous and endometrioid ovarian cancer from the outset. This distinction will help optimize treatment strategies and improve outcomes for patients with different subtypes.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) RAP80 has been characterized as a component of the BRCA1-A complex and is responsible for the recruitment of BRCA1 to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). However, we and others found that the recruitment of RAP80 and BRCA1 are not absolutely temporally synchronized, indicating that other mechanisms, apart from physical interaction, may be implicated. Recently, we and other groups have reported that liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) is a pivotal mechanism underlying DNA repair factors condensation at DSBs and their function. In this study, we aim to disclose whether RAP80 undergoes LLPS at DSBs and whether it is required for BRCA1 recruitment. MATERIALS/METHODS To verify RAP80 is an LLPS protein and its function in DNA damage response (DDR): (1) candidate-mEGFP fusion protein formed condensates in cells and showed fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP); (2) candidate protein was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified with GST; (3) intrinsically disordered region (IDR) of RAP80 were predicted and tested in cell and in vitro; (4) lentivirus were used to construct RAP80-Knock out (KO) and RAP80 re-expression cell lines; (5) length gradient K63 poly-ubiquitin chains were chemically synthesized and incubated with RAP80 protein in vitro; (6) BRCA1 and RAP80 location were determined through immunofluorescence; (7) RAP80 protein expression in tissue was determined by IHC staining. RESULTS Thin layer scanning and 3D reconstruction of the RAP80-mEGFP-expressing cells under a fluorescence microscope showed that RAP80-mEGFP formed spherical condensates with fast FRAP. Observation of purified proteins revealed that GST-RAP80-mEGFP protein formed liquid-like droplets, presenting as a FRAP and the fusion event among adjacent droplets. PEG-8000 and Ficol-400 strengthened the formation of GST-RAP80-mEGFP droplets in vitro. Later, we used a previously developed optoIDR tool to verify that IDR1 (1-254aa) is critical for RAP80 LLPS. To investigate whether the interaction between RAP80 and K63 poly-ubiquitin chains could enhance the condensation of RAP80, we chemically synthesized K63 ubiquitin chains and incubated them with purified GST-RAP80-mCherry proteins. The results showed that supplementation of ubiquitin multipolymer (poly-ubiquitin) significantly induced the LLPS of RAP80, and the ability of RAP80 condensates formation potency was positively correlated with the length of the ubiquitin chain. Consistent with their LLPS capacity, RAP80-WT-mEGFP, RAP80-(IDR1+AIR)-mEGFP groups showed prominent BRCA1 foci, while RAP80-IDR1-mEGFP and RAP80-(SIM+UIM)-mEGFP groups showed delayed BRCA1 recruitment. In rectal cancer tissues, positive staining of the RAP80 protein was mainly observed in the nucleus of cancer cells and high RAP80 expression was correlated with a shorter overall survival time. CONCLUSION RAP80 undergoes LLPS to form liquid-like condensates at DSB sites, which is important for BRCA1 recruitment and enhances tumor radio-resistance.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Ubiquitination of histone is an essential process involved in DNA damage response (DSB) serving as scaffolds for DNA repair proteins, but how these factors are recruited so quickly and regulated in a spatiotemporal manner remains poorly understood. Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) has recently emerged as a mechanism for membraneless condensation driven by multivalent interactions. In this study, we aimed to investigate the LLPS potential of RNF168, an E3 ligase essential for DSB repair, and the mechanism underlying its-mediated tumor radio-resistance. MATERIALS/METHODS The intrinsic disordered domain (IDR) of RNF168 was determined by the PONDR website. The LLPS properties were validated by droplet formation in vivo and in vitro. RNF168-mEGFP were expressed in Escherichia coli and purified with GST tag. The synthesized K63-linked ubiquitin chains were added to mimic the interactions between RNF168 and radiation-induced ubiquitinated-histone. Effects of RNF168 LLPS on downstream proteins were verified by immunofluorescence. RESULTS RNF168-mEGFP recombinant protein formed liquid-like droplets in vivo and co-localized with γ-H2A.X foci after irradiation. The droplet's fluorescence recovered quickly after photobleaching, which could be abolished by 1,6-hexanediol treatment or ATP deprivation. Purified RNF168-mEGFP protein also condensed in vitro, and the size and number of droplets were related to protein concentration, salt concentration, pH, and temperature. Condensation of RNF168 was dependent on the IDR (323-459 amino acid), and more importantly, enhanced by synthesized K63-linked ubiquitin chains. LLPS of RNF168 was required for recruitment of RNF168 to DSB and RNF168-mediated γ-H2A.X ubiquitination. LLPS deficiency of RNF168 resulted in decreased recruitment of 53BP1, BRCA1, and RAP80 proteins, resulting in impaired DSB repair and genomic instability. Notably, higher expression of RNF168 was correlated with a poorer response to neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy in rectal cancer patients. Finally, RNF168 condensate-induced tumor radioresistance was further verified in the xenograft model. CONCLUSION RNF168 undergoes LLPS at the DSB site, which is determined by both the IDR domain and the interaction with K63-linked ubiquitin chains. Radiation-induced RNF168 condensation accelerates the accumulation of RNF168 and promotes the recruitment of downstream effectors to DSB, resulting in enhanced DSB repair and tumor radioresistance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the prognosis and recurrence in patients with residual lesions of pulmonary metastasis from gestational trophoblastic neoplasia after initial treatment, and to explore the clinical significance of pulmonary resection. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on 606 patients with residual lesions from pulmonary metastasis after receiving standardized chemotherapy as initial treatment in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2002 to December 2018. Patients were divided into surgery (51 patients) and non-surgery (555 patients) groups. The prognosis of these patients was compared. Risk factors affecting recurrence were analyzed to explore the effect of pulmonary resection. RESULTS Among low risk patients, complete remission rate was 100% and recurrence rate was <1% in both groups. Among high risk patients, complete remission and recurrence rates were 93.5% and 10.3% in the surgery group and 94.7% and 14.3% in the non-surgery group, respectively. There was no significant difference in prognostic features between the two groups (all p>0.05). No significant difference was found in recurrence rates based on recurrence risk factors (≥3.2 cm residual lung lesions, prognosis score ≥9.0, and drug resistance) between the two groups (all p>0.05). CONCLUSION After standardized chemotherapy, pulmonary resection was not necessary for initially treated stage III gestational trophoblastic neoplasia patients whose blood β human chorionic gonadotropin levels normalized and residual lung lesions remained stable. These patients should be closely monitored during follow-up, regardless of the size of the residual lung lesions or high/low risk score, especially within a year after complete remission.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to explore the single-agent chemotherapy actinomycin D on ovarian reserve by measuring the anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) levels before, during, and after chemotherapy. METHODS This study recruited premenopausal women aged 15 to 45 with a newly diagnosed low-risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia needing actinomycin D. AMH was measured at baseline, during chemotherapy, and 1, 3, and 6 months after the last chemotherapy. The reproductive outcomes were also documented. RESULTS Of the 42 women recruited, we analyzed 37 (median: 29 years; range 19-45) with a complete dataset. The follow-up was 36 months (range 34-39). Actinomycin D significantly decreased AMH concentrations during treatment, from 2.38±0.92 ng/mL to 1.02±0.96 ng/mL (p<0.05). Partial recovery was seen at 1 month and 3 months after treatment. Full recovery was reached 6 months after treatment among patients younger than 35 years. The only factor correlated with the extent of AMH reduction at 3 months was age (r=0.447, p<0.05). Notably, the number of courses of actinomycin D was not associated with the extent of AMH reduction. A total of 18 (90%) of 20 patients who had a desire to conceive had live births with no adverse pregnancy outcomes. CONCLUSION Actinomycin D has a transient and minor effect on ovarian function. Age is the only factor that impacts the patient's rate of recovery. Patients will achieve favorable reproductive outcomes after actinomycin D treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features and differential diagnosis of CIC-rearranged sarcoma (CRS). Methods: Five CRSs of 4 patients (2 biopsies of pelvic cavity and lung metastasis from case 4) diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were enrolled from 2019 to 2021. All cases were evaluated by clinical presentation, H&E, immunohistochemical staining and molecular analysis and the related literature was reviewed. Results: There were one male and three females, the age at diagnosis ranged from 18 to 58 (mean 42.5) years. Three cases were from the deep soft tissues of the trunk and one case from the skin of foot. Grossly, the tumor size ranged from 1 to 16 cm. Microscopically, the tumor was arranged in nodules or solid sheets. The tumor cells were typically round or ovoid, with occasional spindled or epithelioid morphology. The nuclei were round to ovoid with vesicular chromatin and prominent nucleoli. Mitotic figures were brisk (>10/10 HPF). Rhabdoid cells were seen in four of five cases. Myxoid change and hemorrhage were observed in all samples and two cases showed geographic necrosis. Immunohistochemically, CD99 was variably positive in all samples, while WT1 and TLE-1 were positive in four of five samples. Molecular analysis showed CIC-rearrangements in all cases. Two patients succumbed within 3 months. One had mediastinal metastasis 9 months after surgery. One underwent adjuvant chemotherapy and remained tumor-free 10 months after diagnosis. Conclusions: CIC-rearranged sarcoma is uncommon and shows aggressive clinical course with dismal prognosis. The morphological and immunohistochemical characteristics can largely overlap with a variety of sarcomas; hence, knowledge of this entity is vital to avoid potential diagnostic pitfalls. Definitive diagnosis requires molecular confirmation of CIC-gene rearrangement.

Abstract
Background Synergistic antitumor effects of immunotherapy and chemotherapy have been demonstrated in several solid tumors. However, this combination strategy has not been addressed in gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) cases. We therefore compared the safety and therapeutic effect of anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) therapy combined with chemotherapy versus anti-PD-1 monotherapy among high-risk chemorefractory or relapsed GTN patients. Methods This retrospective cohort study was conducted at three teaching hospitals in China. Chemorefractory or relapsed GTN cases receiving anti-PD-1 therapy combined with chemotherapy or anti-PD-1 monotherapy were selected from each center between August 2018 and March 2022. Study endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), treatment duration, overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). The nature, prevalence and severity of treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were evaluated. Findings This work enrolled 66 cases. Thirty-five and 31 patients received anti-PD-1 therapy alone and combined with chemotherapy, respectively. The combined treatment dramatically increased the objective response rate from 62.9% (22/35) to 96.8% (30/31) (p < 0.001). The median durations until complete response were 2.2 (interquartile range [IQR], 1.4-4.2) and 2.8 (IQR, 1.8-2.8) months in the anti-PD-1 monotherapy and combined treatment cohorts, respectively (P = 0.299). The complete response rate (CRR) for anti-PD-1-refractory patients to salvage chemotherapy was 84.6% (11/13). No significant difference in OS [HR 0.50 (95% CI 0.07-3.24), p = 0.499] was detected between anti-PD-1 cohort and anti-PD-1 plus chemotherapy cohort. The PFS in combined group was significantly longer than in anti-PD-1 group [HR 0.06 (95% CI 0.02-0.16), p < 0.001]. TRAEs were observed in 27 (77.1%) and 25 (80.6%) patients receiving anti-PD-1 therapy monotherapy and combined therapy, respectively (p = 0.729). Interpretation Anti-PD-1 therapy combined with chemotherapy exhibits sustainably improved antitumor effect and tolerable toxic effects among high-risk chemorefractory or relapsed GTN cases. Patients not responding to PD-1 inhibitors can be effectively rescued with salvage chemotherapy. Funding The study was supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China (81971475 and 81972451), and the National High Level Hospital Clinical Research Funding (2022-PUMCH-B-083 and 2022-PUMCH-B-084).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to describe the clinicopathological characteristics of recurrent adult granulosa cell tumor and identify the risk factors for recurrence. MATERIAL AND METHODS Seventy recurrent adult granulosa cell tumor patients treated in Peking Union Medical College Hospital between 2000 and 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. The primary outcomes were progression-free survival after first recurrence (PFS-R), overall survival after first recurrence (OS-R) and recurrence frequency. The Kaplan-Meier analysis, univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis, and the Prentice, Williams and Peterson counting process (PWP-CP) model were adopted. RESULTS There were 70 patients included in the study, and recurrence occurred twice in more than 71% of patients, and 49.9% of patients relapsed ≥ three times. The recurrence pattern in over half of the patients at first recurrence was multifocal and distant disease, and abdominal or pelvic mass and liver metastasis were the most common. The 5-year PFS-R was 29.3%, and the 10-year PFS-R was 11.3%; the 5-year OS-R was 94.9%, and the 10-year OS-R was 87.9%. Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that patients with distant recurrence and PFS1 (PFS when first recurrence occurred) ≤60 months had worse PFS-R (p = 0.017, 0.018), and patients with PFS-R ≤ 34 months had worse OS-R (p = 0.023). It demonstrated that PFS1 ≤ 60 months (hazard ratio, HR 1.9, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.1-3.4, p = 0.028) was an independent risk factor for PFS-R, and local lesion at recurrence (HR 0.488, 95% CI: 0.3-0.9, p = 0.027) was an independent protective factor for PFS-R. In addition, it demonstrated that PFS-R ≤ 33 months (HR 5.5, 95% CI: 1.2-25.3, p = 0.028) was an independent risk factor for OS-R. The PWP-CP analysis showed that laparoscopic operation (at each operation) could significantly increase recurrence times (p = 0.002, HR = 3.4), and no existence of gross residual lesion (R0) at each recurrence operation could significantly decrease recurrence frequency (p < 0.001, HR <0.001). CONCLUSIONS The recurrence pattern in patients with recurrent adult granulosa cell tumor was characterized as late and repeated, multifocal, and distant relapse. It has been demonstrated that PFS1 ≤ 60 months and distant lesion at recurrence are independent risk factors for PFS-R, and PFS-R ≤ 33 months is an independent risk factor for OS-R. The PWP-CP model showed that the transabdominal approach and surgery reaching R0 could significantly decrease the recurrence frequency.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the methods, feasibility, efficiency, and fertility outcomes of fertility-sparing treatment for patients with placental site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT). METHODS Clinical data of patients diagnosed with PSTT between April 1998 and April 2020 from Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH) were retrospectively collected. The clinical features, treatment, and outcomes of patients received fertility-sparing treatment were analyzed and compared with patients suffered hysterectomy. RESULTS In total, 126 patients were included in the study and 29 of them received fertility-sparing treatment. Besides significantly younger age and lower proportion of antecedent term delivery were seen in fertility-sparing group than hysterectomy group, no significant differences were observed in stage, serum β-hCG level, or interval from antecedent pregnancy between the two groups. Conservative surgery was selected individualized and none of them suffered salvage hysterectomy. Patients with clinical or pathological high-risk factors received adjuvant chemotherapy, yet the fertility-sparing treatment did not significantly lengthen chemotherapy duration. All patients in fertility-sparing group achieved complete remission without relapse after 36 to 176 months of follow-up and had sixteen healthy term delivery more than one year after the treatment. CONCLUSIONS Fertility-sparing treatment for PSTT can be considered for young patients with localized uterine lesions who strongly desire to preserve their fertility potential. With individualized conservative surgery and selected adjuvant chemotherapy, fertility-sparing treatment will not influence the risk of relapse or overall survival and patients will achieve favorable pregnancy and live birth outcomes.

Abstract
Objectives: To evaluate the expression of emerging immune targets in the tumor-infiltrating immunocytes (TIIs) of human gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) specimens, and to analyze the correlation between the expression patterns and prognosis of GTN patients. Methods: Between January 2008 and December 2017, patients who were diagnosed histologically with GTN were included in this study. The expression densities of LAG-3, TIM-3, GAL-9, PD-1, CD68, CD8, and FOXP3 in the TIIs were assessed independently by two pathologists blinded to clinical outcomes. The expression patterns and correlation with patient outcomes were analyzed to identify prognostic factors. Results: We identified 108 patients with GTN, including 67 with choriocarcinoma, 32 with placental site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT), and 9 with epithelioid trophoblastic tumor (ETT). Almost all GTN patients showed expression of GAL-9, TIM-3, and PD-1 in TIIs (100%, 92.6%, and 90.7%, respectively); LAG-3 was expressed in 77.8% of the samples. The expression densities of CD68 and GAL-9 were significantly higher in choriocarcinoma than that in PSTT and ETT. The TIM-3 expression density in choriocarcinoma was higher than that in PSTT. In addition, the expression density of LAG-3 in the TIIs of choriocarcinoma and PSTT was higher than that in ETT. There was no statistical difference in the expression pattern of PD-1 among different pathological subtypes. The positive expression of LAG-3 in tumor TIIs was a prognostic factor for disease recurrence, and patients with positive expression of LAG-3 in the TIIs had poorer disease-free survival (p = 0.026). Conclusion: Our study evaluated the expression of immune targets PD-1, TIM-3, LAG-3, and GAL-9 in the TIIs of GTN patients and found that they were widely expressed but not associated with patients' prognoses, excepting the positive expression of LAG-3 was a prognostic factor for disease recurrence.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness of a combined treatment modality of salvage chemotherapy and pulmonary resection in chemo-resistant/relapsed gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) with lung metastasis and identify predictors of treatment failure. Data of patients with chemo-resistant/relapsed GTN with lung metastasis who received salvage chemotherapy combined with pulmonary resection were retrospectively analyzed. Among 134 included patients, the number of preoperative chemotherapy regimens ranged from 2−8 (median, 3), and courses ranged from 4−37 (median, 14). Pulmonary lobectomies, segmentectomies, wedge resections, and lobectomies plus wedge resections were performed in 84, 5, 35, and 10 patients, respectively. After completion of treatment, 130 (97.0%) patients achieved complete remission. In the entire cohort, the 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 87.6%. OS rates were similar between stage III and stage IV disease cohorts (89.4% vs. 75.0%, p = 0.137). Preoperative β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) levels > 10 IU/L (p = 0.027) and number of preoperative chemotherapy regimens > 3 (p = 0.018) were predictors of treatment failure. The combined treatment modality of salvage chemotherapy and pulmonary resection is effective in patients with chemo-resistant/relapsed GTN with lung metastasis, improving their prognoses. Patients with preoperative serum β-hCG >10 IU/L and those with >3 chemotherapy regimens preoperatively may not benefit from this multidisciplinary treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the influencing factors of healthy life expectancy (HLE). Methods: Seven Chinese and English databases were used for the retrieval of related literatures published by May 7, 2022 to identify influencing factors of HLE, including diseases and injuries and their risk factors. Based on the ecological model of health determinants, this study classifies the risk factors of diseases and injuries into five levels: personal characteristics, individual behavior and lifestyle, social network, living and working conditions, and macroscopic socio-economic, cultural and environmental conditions. Contents of research area, HLE indicators, research population, influencing factors, data sources and results were extracted. The frequencies of reported documents of different HLE indicators and influencing factors of different dimensions were visualized by using evidence map, and the empirical studies of four authoritative English medical journals and Chinese core medical journals were further compared and described. Results: A total of 90 studies were selected, in which 26 were conducted in China (28.9%). Fifty-three studies are about diseases and injuries in the first dimension, and all of them have studied non-communicable diseases, accounting for the highest proportion (58.9%). There were 77 studies about the analysis on the determinants of health at five levels by an ecological model, all the studies reported multi-level results. Among them, 53 studies reported personal characteristics (58.9%), 47 studies reported individual behavior and lifestyle (52.2%), 10 studies reported social networks (11.1%), 35 studies reported living and working environment (38.9%), 8 studies reported social economy, culture status and environment condition (8.9%). The literatures about HLE published by 4 authoritative English medical journals and 21 Chinese core medical journals in recent three years were selected. Non-communicable diseases and personal characteristics were the top two most commonly studied factors of HLE, and 11 (52.3%) and 12 (57.1%) studies reported these two kinds of factors respectively. The most important factor contributing to the global disability-adjusted life years of non-communicable diseases was individual behavior and lifestyle, which was the most changeable factor. Conclusions: In recent three years, studies involving influencing factors of HLE were mainly non-communicable diseases and personal characteristics. In the future, individual behavior, lifestyle and working environment should be strengthened.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the changes of liver cancer mortality and the effect of liver cancer on life expectancy in key areas of four provinces in China from 2008 to 2018 and provide the basis for the evaluation of comprehensive prevention and control of cancer and promotion of the rational allocation of health resources. Methods: Based on the national cause-of-death surveillance in key areas of the 4 provinces from 2008 to 2018, we analyzed the mortality of liver cancer, cause eliminated life expectancy (CELE) and potential gains in life expectancy (PGLEs). Software Joinpoint 4.9.0.0 was used to calculate the average annual percentage change (AAPC). Arriaga's decomposition method was used to estimate the contribution of the changes of liver cancer mortality in each age group to life expectancy. Results: The standardized mortality of liver cancer in key areas of the 4 provinces showed a downward trend from 2008 to 2018 (AAPC=-4.37%, P<0.001). The changes of liver cancer mortality had a positive effect on the increase of life expectancy, with a contribution value of 0.240 years and a contribution degree of 5.62%. The positive effect was greatest in age group 45-49 years (0.041 years, 0.96%), and the negative effect was greatest in age group 50-54 years (-0.015 years, -0.35%). Compared with 2008, the life expectancy increased by 4.27 years (AAPC=0.59%, P<0.001), the liver cancer CELE increased by 4.20 years (AAPC=0.58%, P<0.001), the PGLEs decreased by 0.07 years (AAPC=-0.62%,P<0.001), and life loss rate decreased by 0.13% (AAPC=-1.18%, P=0.001). The liver cancer PGLEs increased in Yongqiao district, Anhui province (0.09 years), and decreased in other districts (counties), with the largest decline was in Fugou county, Henan province (-0.21 years). Conclusions: From 2008 to 2018, the standardized mortality rate of liver cancer in key areas of the 4 provinces decreased gradually, contributing to the growth of life expectancy. The life loss caused by liver cancer decreased gradually, but the PGLEs varied with districts (counties).

Abstract
The existence of garbage codes in death cause surveillance data sets could influence the accuracy of the death cause statistics, and subsequently affect the precision and effectiveness of public health policy making. International and domestic researchers have studied the characteristics of garbage codes in various death cause data sets from different countries or regions in the world. They proposed several approaches for redistributing garbage codes, such as expert consultancy, fixed proportional reassignment, using the information about death cause chain, building statistical models, and so on. This paper summarizes and compares the principles, applications and limitation of application scenarios of currently common methods for garbage code redistribution in order to provide some references for improving the accuracy and usefulness of the death cause data in China.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Guidelines recommend etoposide, methotrexate, actinomycin D (EMA)/cyclophosphamide, vincristine (CO) as first-line treatment for high-risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN). However, the floxuridine, actinomycin D, etoposide and vincristine (FAEV) regimen is commonly used to treat these patients in China. We conducted a randomised controlled trial to compare the efficacies and toxicities of FAEV and EMA/CO. METHODS Ninety-four patients with GTN were enrolled between May 2015 and April 2019 and randomly assigned to the FAEV or EMA/CO regimen. The rates of complete remission and relapse and the toxicities were compared in August 2021. RESULTS Five patients were excluded from the analysis. There were 46 patients in the FAEV group and 43 patients in the EMA/CO group. The complete remission rates following primary treatment were 89.1% and 79.1% (P = 0.193), respectively. The relapse rates were 8.7% and 9.3% (P = 0.604). The apparent incidences of grade 4 myelosuppression were 60.9% and 32.6% (P = 0.008), respectively; however, they became both 32.6% (P = 0.996) after granulocyte colony-stimulating factor support. Other adverse reactions were similar in the two groups. No patient died of disease. CONCLUSION FAEV has comparable efficacy and toxicity to EMA/CO as the primary treatment for high-risk GTN, and may thus be another first-line choice of chemotherapy.

Abstract
Background Primary cervical gestational trophoblastic neoplasias (GTNs) are extremely rare ectopic GTNs. Such lesions are difficult to diagnose clinically because of their rarity, with abnormal vaginal bleeding of a non-specific cause being the most common symptom. To that end, this retrospective study aimed to identify the clinical characteristics of cervical GTN and to explore diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Results Thirteen patients diagnosed with primary cervical GTN at the Department of Gynecology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Beijing, China, between June 1, 1988 and May 31, 2020 were included in the study. All patients had irregular vaginal bleeding, including six who presented with massive bleeding. Seven patients (53.8%) were initially misdiagnosed with a cervical pregnancy. All patients received chemotherapy; 11 (84.6%) also underwent hysterectomy because of chemoresistant lesions or uncontrolled bleeding. All patients achieved complete remission; however, two women (15.4%) experienced a relapse during the median follow-up period of 35 months. A comprehensive review of English-language literature published between 1980 and 2020 identified 22 case reports encompassing 27 patients. The definitive diagnosis was achieved via pathology in 26 of them (96.3%), and hysterectomy was performed in 21 (77.8%). Conclusions Owing to its rarity and nonspecific symptoms, the diagnosis of primary cervical GTN is challenging and often relies on pathology. The combination of chemotherapy and hysterectomy is the main therapeutic strategy for this disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment options for patients with high-risk chemorefractory or relapsed gestational trophoblastic neoplasia are scarce. The synergistic antitumour effect of immunotherapy and antiangiogenic drugs has been shown in many solid tumours. This phase 2 trial evaluated the activity and safety of camrelizumab (PD-1 inhibitor) plus apatinib (VEGF receptor inhibitor) in patients with high-risk chemorefractory or relapsed gestational trophoblastic neoplasia. METHODS This was a single-arm, open-label, phase 2 trial, done at a single tertiary health-care centre in Beijing, China. Women (18-70 years) with high-risk (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics score ≥7) chemorefractory or relapsed gestational trophoblastic neoplasia who had received at least two lines of previously unsuccessful multidrug chemotherapy regimens and had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-2 were eligible for inclusion. Patients received 4-week cycles of intravenous camrelizumab 200 mg every 2 weeks plus oral apatinib 250 mg once per day until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was objective response rate assessed according to serum human chorionic gonadotrophin concentration. Activity and safety were analysed in all patients who received at least one dose of study drug. The study is ongoing, but recruitment is complete. The study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04047017. FINDINGS Between Aug 7, 2019, and March 18, 2020, 20 patients enrolled; 19 (95%) were diagnosed with choriocarcinoma and one (5%) had placental site trophoblastic tumour. The median follow-up duration was 18·5 months (IQR 14·6-20·9). The objective response rate was 55% (95% CI 32-77); ten (50%; 95% CI 27-73) patients had complete response. The most common grade 3 treatment-related adverse events were hypertension (five [25%] patients), rash (four [20%] patients), neutropenia (two [10%]), leukocytopenia (two [10%]), and aspartate aminotransferase increase (two [10%]). One patient had a treatment-related serious adverse event (aspartate aminotransferase 19-times higher than the upper limit of normal). No grade 4 or 5 treatment-related adverse events were reported. INTERPRETATION Camrelizumab plus apatinib showed promising antitumour activity and acceptable toxicity and could be a salvage therapy option for the treatment of high-risk chemorefractory or relapsed gestational trophoblastic neoplasia. Immune checkpoint inhibitors combined with chemotherapy for heavily-treated patients and upfront use of camrelizumab plus apatinib for patients with high-risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia are under investigation in phase 2 trials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of overexpression of the oncogenic transcription factor ELF4 on proliferation and apoptosis in human insulinoma cells and explore the underlying mechanism. METHODS A human insulinoma BON cell line with stable overexpression of ELF4 (BON-ELF4 cells) was constructed using a recombinant retrovirus vector and the expression of ELF4 protein was verified using Western blotting. MTT assay was used to assess the proliferation of BON-ELF4 cells and BON-Vector cells, and the cell apoptosis induced by treatment with epirubicin (0.1 μmol/L for 24 h) was analyzed by detecting the expressions of cleaved caspase-8, caspase-9, and PARP using Western blotting. Flow cytometry with Annexin VFITC/PI staining was performed to analyze the numbers of apoptotic BON-Vector or BON-ELF4 cells. The expressions of phosphorylated Akt and total Akt in the cells were detected using Western blotting. RESULTS BON-ELF4 cell line with stable overexpression of ELF4 was successfully established. ELF4 overexpression significantly promoted the proliferation (P < 0.05) and obviously suppressed epirubicin- induced apoptosis in BON cells, resulting also in significantly reduced expressions of cleaved caspase-8, caspase-9 and PARP (P < 0.05). The results of flow cytometry showed a significantly lower apoptotic rate in BON-ELF4 cells than in BON-Vector cells following epirubicin treatment (6.03% vs 22.90%). The phosphorylation levels of Akt (Thr308 and Ser473) were significantly increased (P < 0.05) while the level of total Akt remained unchanged (P>0.05) in ELF4- overexpressing cells. CONCLUSION ELF4 overexpression enhances the proliferation and suppresses apoptosis of insulinomas cells by activating Akt signaling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND 5-fluorouracil-based multiagent chemotherapy has been used as the primary treatment for high-risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) in China for a few decades. This study aims to assess the efficacy and toxicity of floxuridine, actinomycin D, etoposide, and vincristine (FAEV) as a primary treatment for patients with GTN who had International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) scores ≥5. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 207 patients with GTN who had FIGO scores ≥5 were treated with FAEV as first-line chemotherapy at Peking Union Medical College Hospital between January 2002 and December 2017. Complete remission (CR), resistance, survival, toxicity, and reproductive outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS Of the 207 patients treated with FAEV, 9 (4.3%) required a change of chemotherapy owing to toxicity and 1 (0.5%) died of cerebral hernia 5 weeks after commencing treatment. The remaining 197 patients were assessable to determine the response to FAEV; among them, 168 (85.3%) achieved CR with FAEV and 29 (14.7%) developed resistance to FAEV. The 5-year overall survival rate of the entire cohort was 97.4%. Grade 3-4 neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia occurred in 28.4%, 6.8%, and 6.2% of cycles, respectively. No acute toxicity-related deaths occurred. Five patients developed acute myeloid leukemia 10-50 months after exposure to chemotherapy; another patient developed duodenal cancer 2 years after completing therapy. Sixty-one patients who preserved fertility wanted to become pregnant; 56 of them conceived. CONCLUSION The FAEV regimen is an effective primary treatment for patients with GTN who have FIGO scores ≥5 and has predictable and manageable toxicity. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE The most commonly used multiagent chemotherapy for high-risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) is etoposide, methotrexate and actinomycin D/cyclophosphamide and vincristine (EMA/CO) worldwide. However, 5-fluorouracil-based multiagent chemotherapy has been used as a primary treatment for high-risk GTN in China for a few decades. This study evaluated the efficacy and toxicity of floxuridine, actinomycin D, etoposide, and vincristine (FAEV) as a primary treatment for patients with GTN who have International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) scores ≥5. The study's data demonstrated that FAEV as a primary treatment achieved favorable outcomes for patients with FIGO scores ≥5. Toxicities that result from the FAEV regimen are predictable and manageable. The FAEV regimen may provide another option for the treatment of GTN.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study selects the health indicators of older adults to analyze the impact of tea drinking on health. DESIGN This is a panel data. SETTING This study uses data from China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS), which covers nine provinces and ten waves, between 1997 and 2015. PARTICIPANTS a total of 706 old adults are consistently surveyed in six surveys on issues such as health and nutrition. MEASUREMENTS Health of old adults is assessed by self-reported health (SRH), tea drinking is 0-1 dummy variable, and also analyze with the frequency of tea drinking. This study uses ordered probit model to analyze the influence of tea drinking on SRH. RESULTS Findings reveal a significant negative correlation between tea drinking and SRH of older adults. It is shows that the significant positive correlation exists between the tea drinking frequency and SRH, but the quadratic term of tea frequency shows the significant negative correlation. It means drinking tea benefits older adults in terms of improved health, but excessive consumption of tea is not healthy for them. The heterogeneity analyses reveal that there are no significant geographic, tea-drinking pattern or gender differences in the conclusion that tea drinking is good for older adults' health. CONCLUSION In this study, we find correlation between tea drinking and SRH of older adults, and tea drinking is beneficial toward the improvement of SRH, but drinking tea in excess is not good for older adults' health.

Abstract
Background Choriocarcinoma is a rare malignant neoplasm, which is classified as either gestational choriocarcinoma or nongestational choriocarcinoma. The purpose of this study was to examine the clinical characteristics of Chinese female nongestational choriocarcinoma patients and discuss our experience in treating this rare disease. Results We conducted a single-center retrospective study on a sample of 37 nongestational choriocarcinoma patients who were diagnosed and treated at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from March 1982 to March 2020. Their demographic, clinical, laboratory, and therapeutic data were collected. Detailed information was available for all 37 individuals in our sample. The primary lesions included 34 in the ovaries, 2 in the pituitary and 1 in the stomach. The median age of onset was 22 years, and the median follow-up period spanned 41 months. The lungs (40.5%) were the most commonly observed metastatic site. All subjects were treated with surgery and multidrug chemotherapies, and a median of 4.0 courses was required to achieve complete remission. The overall complete response rate, relapse rate, and 3-year and 5-year survival rates were 81.1%, 16.7%, 80.0%, and 75.5%, respectively. Conclusions Nongestational choriocarcinoma can be managed well using surgery and multidrug chemotherapies, but the overall outcome of nongestational choriocarcinoma is still worse than that of gestational choriocarcinoma. Mixed nongestational choriocarcinoma seems to have similar therapeutic outcomes as pure tumors.

Abstract
Background Pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma (PBML) is a rare disease characterized by leiomyoma of benign histopathology existing in the lungs. Because of its rarity, limited literature with a single case or small number of cases has been regarding to the clinical course, pathology or management of PBML. Methods A retrospective study was performed of all PBML cases diagnosed and managed at Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH) from 2001 to 2019. The clinical characteristics, pathology, treatment and outcomes of each case were studied. Results There were 25 PBML patients identified in the 19-year period in PUMCH, and 23 patients’ data was analyzed. The median age at diagnosis was 46 years. There were 7 patients (30.4%) diagnosed with postmenopausal status. Two patients (8.7%) had no uterine leiomyoma, and 3 patients (13.0%) had no gynecologic surgery history. Immunohistochemistry of most lesions demonstrated positive for desmin, SMA and Estrogen/Progesterone Receptors; and negative for S-100 were shown in 7 cases. After curative or diagnostic surgeries for the PBML, several treatments from observation to medical or surgical castration were performed. Nine premenopausal patients preserved their ovaries at first. At a median follow-up of 8 years, 3 patients finally had oophorectomy. Conclusions PBML is a rare disease and should be treated by individualization according to the patients’ age, symptoms and extent of lesion. Curative surgery for patients with limited lesions can achieve the complete response. For patients that are young and asymptomatic, close observation is recommended as the first choice. All patients should undergo long-term surveillance.

Abstract
Environmental contamination with Clostridioides difficile plays an important role in the transmission of C. difficile infection (CDI) in healthcare and long-term care facilities, which results in prolonged length of stay, higher risk of mortality and increased healthcare costs. Environmental cleaning bundles are introduced to improve environmental cleanliness. This study aimed to evaluate whether environmental cleaning bundles applied in hospital, community and long-term care settings reduce the incidence of healthcare-associated CDI compared with conventional cleaning practices. Relevant databases, websites and trial registration platforms were searched. Two reviewers conducted study screening and selection, data collection, risk of bias assessment and evidence quality assessment independently. Meta-analyses were conducted using Review Manager 5.3. Ten eligible studies [one randomized controlled trial (RCT) and nine non-RCTs] were included. No significant effect of environmental cleaning bundles on the CDI incidence rate was found [risk ratio (RR)=0.96, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.71-1.29; studies=2; I2=49%; very low quality]. However, the removal of surface markers was improved significantly (RR=1.55, 95% CI 1.30-1.84; studies=3; I2=98%; very low quality), and the percentage of CDI rooms with positive cultures of C. difficile (RR=0.16, 95% CI 0.08-0.31; studies=4; I2=7%; moderate quality) was reduced significantly after the implementation of environmental cleaning bundles. Environmental cleaning bundles may consequently be helpful in improving the thoroughness of cleaning of environmental surfaces in hospital and long-term care settings. More well-conducted RCTs are expected to provide stronger evidence.

Abstract
Background: Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) with urinary system metastasis is rare. There is limited information about this situation. This study aimed to analyze clinical features, prognostic factors, and survival outcomes of patients with metastasis to the urinary system arising from GTN. Methods: Medical records of 53 consecutive GTN patients with urinary system metastases and treated at Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH) between 1990 and 2018 were reviewed. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to describe the overall survival. Prognostic factors were identified using univariate and multivariate analyses. Results: Fifty-three GTN patients with urinary tract metastasis were identified in our institution. The mean age of patients was 30.8 years (range, 23-53 years). Thirty-six (67.9%) patients achieved complete remission (CR), and the remaining 17 (32.1%) showed progressive disease. The 5-year overall survival rate of the entire cohort was 78.4%. Age ≥ 40 years was an independent risk factor for prognosis (HR 12.353, 95% CI 2.203-69.261, P = 0.004). Previous failed chemotherapy history (P = 0.040) and the presence of brain and/or liver metastases (P = 0.024) significantly influenced the survival of GTN patients with urinary tract system metastasis. Conclusion: GTN with urinary tract metastasis is a rare condition. Patients with different metastatic sites have different CR rates and prognosis. Therefore, individualized strategies should be considered for patients with different metastatic sites. Urinary system metastasis is probably not a prognostic factor in GTN patients. Patients aged ≥40, those who had previous failed multidrug chemotherapy, and presented brain and/or liver metastases showed a significant adverse outcome.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of low-dose Ruxolitinib in the treatment of patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) and refractory to the first-line and/or second-line drugs after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Methods: The clinical data was retrospectively analyzed of patients diagnosed with cGVHD in Anhui Provincial Hospital from July 9, 2018 to May 23, 2019. They were refractory to first-line and second-line drugs and were given a low-dose of Ruxolitinib (a dose of 5 mg twice daily if body weight ≥ 25 kg and 2.5 mg twice daily if body weight<25 kg). There was 2.5 mg reduction per week or every two weeks if the condition improved until withdrawal. The efficacy and safety of Ruxolitinib were retrospectively analyzed weekly or biweekly. If the condition improved, the dosage would be reduced by 2.5 mg weekly or biweekly until discontinuance. Results: A total of 47 patients were included in the study,and the median time of taking Ruxolitinib was 55 (21-154) days. The median time of taking effect was 14(7-28) days. The overall response rate was 87.2% (41/47). The complete response rate was 63.8% (30/47) and the partial response rate was 23.4%(11/47). Among them, 13 cases were mild and the overall response rate was 100%(13/13). Twenty one cases were moderate and the overall response rate was 90.5%(19/21). Thirteen cases were severe and the overall response rate was 69.2%(9/13). The highest overall response rate of all organs the was 100% in the gastrointestinal tract (7/7), and it was 95.8%(23/24) for the skin, 83.3%(5/6) for the liver and 76.9%(10/13) for the lung. The highest rate of complete organ response was 95.8% for skin. Eight patients (17%) developed cytopenia, of which 2(4.2%) were with a decrease of 3-4 degree hemoglobin. Recrudescence of cytomegalovirus occurred in 3 patients (6.4%). After withdrawal of Ruxolitinib, 6 patients (12.7%) had recurrence of cGVHD. The median time to relapse was 35.5(7-90) days. All of their conditions were improved after addition of Ruxolitinib. The median time of response was 7(5-14) days. The median follow-up was 208(33-412) days. Three patients(6.4%) died, and all of them died of severe pulmonary infection. Three patients (6.4%) had relapse of primary disease. The 6-month overall survival rate was 95.7%. Conclusion: Low-dose Ruxolitinib has good efficacy and safety in the treatment of cGVHD.

Abstract
AIMS Although comammox have been discovered in a variety of ecosystems, there are few studies in urban lakes. This paper attempted to confirm whether this ammonia-oxidizing microbe exists in urban lakes and to determine the factors influencing its existence. METHODS AND RESULTS This study investigated the diversity and abundance of comammox bacteria in sediments of a typical urban lake in China, and their ecological relationship with other ammonia-oxidizing micro-organisms. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that comammox clade A existed in the sediment of Lake Donghu, and the comammox bacteria co-existed with ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA), ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and anaerobic ammonia-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria in the sediment of this lake. The abundances of the ammonia monooxygenase subunit A (amoA) genes for comammox, AOA, AOB and anammox 16S rRNA were 2·43 × 108 , 1·07 × 108 , 3·24 × 107 and 3·21 × 1011 copies per gram dry sediment respectively. Moreover, the amoA gene abundance of comammox was positively correlated with that of AOA and AOB. The redundancy analysis showed that the abundance of the comammox amoA gene was negatively correlated with the concentration of main indicators for nitrogen status in both the sediment and the water column, indicating that eutrophication may inhibit the growth of comammox bacteria. CONCLUSIONS Comammox bacteria play an important ecological role in the nitrogen cycle of urban lake sediments. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Our results indicated comammox bacteria were widespread in urban lakes and eutrophication may inhibit their growth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated the clinical characteristics, treatments, and survival of patients with gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) who experienced recurrence. Factors predictive of recurrence were also investigated. METHODS Patients with GTN who recurred after completing chemotherapy at Peking Union Medical College Hospital Trophoblastic Disease Center were identified between January 2004 and December 2017. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors predictive of GTN recurrence. RESULTS A total of 1827 patients with GTN achieved complete remission (CR) at our center, of whom 118 (6.5%) experienced recurrence during follow-up. The recurrence rates for patients initially treated at our center and those referred to us were 2.7% and 14.6%, respectively. The majority of recurrent patients received floxuridine-based multiagent chemotherapy (n = 64). Patients who underwent surgery achieved a significantly higher CR rate than those who did not (88.6% vs 61.1%, P = .001). Although 94.1% of recurrent patients reachieved CR, 33.3% of them recurred for a second time. The 5-year survival rate of the entire cohort was 80.4%. An interval between antecedent pregnancy and chemotherapy >12 months (OR: 6.600, 95% CI [3.217-13.540], P < .001), and an interval from first chemotherapy to achieving β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) normalization >14 weeks (OR: 2.226, 95% CI [1.080-4.588], P = .030) were predictors of recurrence. CONCLUSIONS Patients with recurrent GTN are prone to recurring for a second time. Surgery plays a beneficial role in the management of recurrent GTN. An interval between antecedent pregnancy and chemotherapy >12 months, and an interval from first chemotherapy to achieving β-hCG normalization >14 weeks were predictors of recurrence.

Abstract
Objective: Mixed gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) is a rare occurrence that refers to the coexistence of choriocarcinoma and/or placental site trophoblastic tumor and/or epithelioid trophoblastic tumor. The diagnosis and management of mixed GTN are challenging. We investigated the clinicopathological characteristics, diagnoses, treatments, and outcomes of patients with mixed GTN. Materials and Methods: The medical records and pathological sections of 16 patients with mixed GTN who were treated at Peking Union Medical College Hospital and The Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University between January 2012 and December 2018 were reviewed. Results: Pretreatment serum human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels ranged from 180 to 625,024 IU/L, and were >10,000 IU/L in 14 of the 16 patients, none of whom were diagnosed correctly at initial presentation. Two patients were diagnosed with choriocarcinoma coexisting with intermediate trophoblastic tumor (ITT) through dilation and curettage (D&C) before treatment. Another 5 patients were histologically confirmed to have placental site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT) by D&C but final pathological findings showed mixed PSTT and choriocarcinoma at subsequent hysterectomy. Seven post-chemotherapy patients with an initial clinical diagnosis of choriocarcinoma underwent surgery because of chemoresistance and their pathological findings revealed coexisting ITT. The remaining 2 patients were found to have choriocarcinoma coexisting with ITT following cervical biopsy and pulmonary lobectomy. All patients received chemotherapy: 14 underwent surgery combined with chemotherapy and 2 received chemotherapy alone to preserve fertility. Other than 1 patient who died of disease progression, 15 patients (93.8%) achieved complete remission (CR) after treatment, although 5 (33.3%) relapsed. Of these 5 patients with relapse, 3 achieved CR after additional treatment, 1 was receiving an immune checkpoint inhibitor, and 1 was lost to follow-up after refusing further therapy. Conclusion: Mixed GTN is difficult to diagnose on initial presentation. Overlap of the ITT component should be considered in refractory chemoresistant choriocarcinoma. Coexistence of choriocarcinoma should be suspected in ITT patients with high hCG levels. Surgery combined with chemotherapy is optimal treatment for choriocarcinoma mixed with ITT.
