Patients with extramammary Paget's disease have many treatment options. The selection depends on the stage of the tumor. The options are surgery, radiation therapy, or a combination of these methods. Before treatment starts, ask your health care team about possible side effects and how treatment may change your normal activities. Because cancer treatments often damage healthy cells and tissues, side effects are common. Side effects may not be the same for each person, and they may change from one treatment session to the next.

Overview

Chemotherapy with either 5-fluorouracil, imiquimod cream, or the combination of paclitaxel and trastuzumab may be helpful in the treatment of extramammary Paget's disease.

Medical Therapy

The following medical therapies have been studied for the treatment of extramammary Paget's disease:[1][2][3][4]

Medication Mechanism of action Dosage
Imiquimod
  • These agents modulate key factors of the immune system
  • Imiquimod is a immune response modifier with an unknown mechanism of action
  • Imiquimod 5% cream is applied 3 times weekly for 16 weeks.
Fluorouracil
  • These agents inhibit cell growth and proliferation
  • Fluorouracil interferes with DNA synthesis by blocking methylation of deoxyuridylic acid via inhibition of thymidylate synthetase and, eventually, cell proliferation.
  • It is used topically
Paclitaxel
  • Paclitaxel's mechanism of action involves interference with the normal breakdown of microtubules during cell division
Trastuzumab
  • Trastuzumab is a recombinant monoclonal antibody against human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). It is effective when tumor cells overexpress HER2 protein.
