New targeted therapies are being identified for advanced and recurrent endometrial cancer. Within the last 5 years, pembrolizumab and lenvatinib have improved survival in advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. Similarly, trastuzumab has shown efficacy in HER2-producing uterine serous cancer. Patients with recurrent endometrial cancer are often difficult to salvage. Traditional chemotherapy has produced poor response rates. Both immunotherapy and other targeted therapies have shown promise in recurrent disease.
