For a patient with locally current endometrial cancer whose disease had complete radiographic response to carboplatin, Taxol, and pembrolizumab, would you consider adding radiation therapy?

She had a resected FIGO grade 2 endometrioid adenocarcinoma and did not receive radiation then. Her recurrent disease was a bulky pelvic mass that melted away with treatment.

Answer from: Radiation Oncologist at Community Practice

I would add RT, as the goal is still curative and we have not replaced the value of local treatment with systemic alone. Plus, we don't have data on the long-term durability of this complete response.
