Mesotheliomas have limited treatment options and a poor prognosis. Approximately 80% of mesothelioma cases in Japan are associated with past asbestos exposure. For epithelioid pleural mesotheliomas suitable for macroscopic complete resection, surgery and neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy are recommended. On the other hand, unresectable and post-operative recurrent cases are candidates for drug therapy. For many years, the only approved treatment was the combination of cisplatin and pemetrexed. However, nivolumab was approved as second-line or later treatment in 2018, combination therapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab was approved as first-line treatment for pleural mesothelioma in 2021, and nivolumab was approved for non-pleural mesothelioma in 2023. Further development of combinations of chemotherapy and immunotherapy, new antibody therapies, and molecular targeted therapies is ongoing.
