Thirty-five patients with nometastatic gestational trophoblastic neoplasms and 3 patients with metastatic gestational trophoblastic neoplasms were treated primarily with methotrexate and citrovorum factor rescue. The antecedent pregnancy was molar in all patients. The known histologic diagnosis in 34 patients was hydatdiform mole and choriocarcinoma in 3. Up to March 1977, the duration of remissions ranged from 1 to 21 months. Complete and sustained remission was achieved in 91% of patients with nonmetastatic disease and in 2 of the 3 patients with metastases, without evidence of marrow or hepatic and with substantially reduced epithelial toxicity. Response to treatment and the number of courses required to achieve remission were determined solely on the basis of the human chorionic gonadotropin response as measured by the beta subunit radioimmunoassay.
