Studies
Extramammary Paget’s disease (EMPD) is rare and as such medical studies and research on EMPD is often difficult to find. Due to limited participation, EMPD studies can differ in conclusions.
Published systemic therapy options for metastatic extramammary Paget's disease have largely been anecdotal due to the rarity of this disease, which has precluded the ability to conduct clinical trials. We describe the favorable response of a 72-year-old man with extramammary Paget's disease, whose disease has been controlled with the CDK4/6 inhibitor, abemaciclib. The rationale behind the selection of this therapy is discussed.
