Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) is a group of rare tumors characterized by abnormal trophoblastic proliferation following pregnancy including invasive moles, choriocarcinomas, and intermediate trophoblastic tumors (ITT). Although the treatment and follow-up of GTN has been heterogeneous, globally the emergence of expert networks has helped to harmonize its management. We provide an overview of the current knowledge, diagnosis, and management strategies in GTN and discuss innovative therapeutic options under investigation. While chemotherapy has been the historical backbone of GTN treatment, promising drugs such as immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway and anti-angiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitors are currently being investigated remodeling the therapeutical landscape of trophoblastic tumors. Chemotherapy regimens for GTN have potential long-term effects on fertility and quality of life, making innovative and less toxic therapeutic approaches necessary. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown promise in reversing immune tolerance in GTN and have been evaluated in several trials. However, immunotherapy is associated with rare but life-threatening adverse events and evidence of immune-related infertility in mice, highlighting the need for further research and careful consideration of its use. Innovative biomarkers could help personalize GTN treatments and reduce chemotherapy burden in some patients.
