The efficacy and survival impact of conventional chemotherapies for metastatic extramammary Paget’s disease (EMPD) have not been fully elucidated. This study examined the longterm outcome of chemotherapy for this indication. We conducted a retrospective review of 21 patients with distant metastatic EMPD (14 patients treated with chemotherapy and 7 patients treated without chemotherapy). The response rate of chemotherapy and patient survival were statistically analyzed. Among the 14 patients treated with chemotherapy, 12, 1, and 1 patient received docetaxel, paclitaxel, and low-dose 5-fluorouracil plus cisplatin, respectively, as the first-line treatment. The response rate was 50.0% (7/14), and the disease control rate was 64.3% (9/14). The median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 16.8 and 27.9 months, respectively. Multivariate analyses revealed that chemotherapy was a significant factor for prolonged PFS (hazard ratio (HR) 0.22, p = 0.038) but not for OS (HR = 1.71, p = 0.54). Ten patients (71.4%) had severe (grade 3 or 4) hematological adverse events. Although conventional chemotherapy improved PFS, we failed to show a significantly improved OS. Considering the frequent adverse events of conventional chemotherapy, targeted therapy may become a mainstay for the treatment of metastatic EMPD.
