- W2697259651 abstract "Thymic carcinomas are rare malignant tumors, located in the anterior mediastinum. For the treatment of these carcinomas, several chemotherapy regimens have been suggested, including carboplatin plus paclitaxel. However, because of the rarity of these tumors, the standard chemotherapy regimen has not yet been established. Here, we report a case of thymic carcinoma that responded to first-line carboplatin plus nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (<i>nab</i>-paclitaxel) therapy with continuation maintenance <i>nab</i>-paclitaxel monotherapy. A 78-year-old male presented to a hospital with the chief complaint of dyspnea. Cardiomegaly was detected on chest X-ray scans, and marked pericardial effusion was observed by echocardiography. Chest computed tomography scans revealed the presence of a mediastinal mass, pericardial thickening, and pericardial effusion. The serum levels of the tumor marker CYFRA 21-1 (cytokeratin-19 fragment) were elevated. Eventually, he was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the thymus, which was staged as cT4N3M0 or stage IV (according to the tumor-node-metastasis classification). Chemotherapy with carboplatin on day 1 and <i>nab</i>-paclitaxel on days 1, 8, and 15, every 4 weeks was initiated. After the administration of 4 cycles of this regimen, the tumor diameter appeared reduced, and the serum CYFRA 21-1 levels were normalized. After a 1-month interval, the serum CYFRA 21-1 levels increased again; therefore, maintenance <i>nab</i>-paclitaxel monotherapy was initiated. At the end of the treatment, the patient experienced a progression-free survival of 10.3 months. Carboplatin plus <i>nab</i>-paclitaxel may be an appropriate alternative first-line treatment for thymic carcinomas. Additionally, maintenance <i>nab</i>-paclitaxel monotherapy may prolong the progression-free survivals of patients with thymic carcinomas." @default.
