A Case of Metastatic Collecting Duct Carcinoma Whose Massive Skull Bone Metastasis was Prominently Reossified by Gemcitabine Plus Cisplatin Chemotherapy Combined with Zoledronic Acid

Abstract: The present case underwent right laparoscopic radical nephrectomy for collecting duct carcinoma (CDC). Recurrence occurred in the lung and the bone (skull and lumber vertebra) in 2011. Gemcitabine plus cisplatin (GC) chemotherapy and monthly zoledronic acid (ZA) was then started. The massive skull bone metastases were prominently reossified after several courses of the therapy. The patient received 16 courses of GC chemotherapy and monthly ZA, and pulmonary metastases and reossified skull bone metastases were … Show more

“…The mPFS was 15.1 months and mOS was 27.8 months. We also previously reported on a patient with metastatic CDC whose massive skull bone metastases clearly reossified, lung metastases reduced and pleural effusion reduced by gemcitabine plus CDDP combined with zoledronic acid . Case reports reported on patients with metastatic CDC whose tumors responded by a TT, but the duration for disease control is generally short in metastatic CDC.…”

“…Current treatment options for CDC are based on standards set for renal cell carcinoma, but due to their aggressiveness and also with metastasis, the intervention such as cytoreductive nephrectomy is less useful for the survival of this case and more suitable for the management of RCC cells (ccRCC), which is known resistant to systemic chemotherapy (Sui et al, 2017). Majority of CDC with metastases have a very poor prognosis, but pathological similarities with UC are the main reason to use sophisticated chemotherapy agents such as Gemcitabine plus Cisplatin; therefore CDC may be chemosensitive/radiosensitive (Sui et al, 2017;Kawaguchi, Ito, Shimazaki, & Asano, 2017).…”
