GTNs have excellent prognosis if properly treated at experienced centers and single-agent dactinomycin seems more effective for low-risk GTN, which reflects the success of salvage therapy.

Low risk GTN cases who were resistant to methotrexate monotherapy received etoposid or cisplatinum/etoposide as a second-line therapy and high risk cases who was resistant to MAC combination received second- line combination chemotherapy and/or hysterectomy.

The overall survival rate in 804 patients with GTN treated from 1962 to 2006 was 93.3% and the cure rate for patients with metastatic disease increased from 77.8% during 1962–1978 to 91.8%) from 1979 to 2006.

It was found that only the presence of brain and/or liver metastases, followed by an antecedent nonmolar pregnancy and resistance to multiple agent chemotherapy were significant as regards the prognosis of high-risk metastatic GTT.

It seems that multi-agent chemotherapy (EMA-EP) concurrently with whole brain irradiation results in acceptable survival rates in GTT patients with brain metastases.

With appropriate management, the outlook for patients with brain metastases from high-risk gestational trophoblastic tumors is good, and the majority of patients achieved sustained remission and probably a cure with chemotherapy as the dominant form of treatment.

It appears that a select subset of patients with chemorefractory GTD who have a limited number of clinically detectable tumor foci may benefit from salvage surgery.

Although etoposide-containing chemotherapy is currently the most effective and well tolerated regimen for high-risk GTT, 20-30% of patients develop drug resistance to these regimens.
