OBJECTIVE
An atypical case of childhood intraabdominal desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is presented.
METHODS
An 11-year-old boy presented with progressive nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain, hepatomegaly, and an epigastric mass. Computed tomographic scanning as well as findings at
OBJECTIVE
To study the clinicopathologic features and immunophenotype of desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT), and to assess the feasibility of reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) as a diagnostic adjunct for DSRCT in routine practice.
METHODS
The clinical (number = 15),
Background: Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a rare aggressive sarcoma that affects children and young adults, and portends poor outcomes despite intensive multimodal treatment approaches. We report toxicity, response, and
Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a type of soft-tissue sarcoma with poor prognosis. Current treatments include multidisciplinary treatment options such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. Apatinib is an oral, small-molecule, anti-tumor, angiogenesis-targeted drug, which acts
OBJECTIVE
Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSCRT) is an uncommon pediatric tumor with a poor prognosis. Aggressive multimodality therapy is the current treatment approach; however. treatment toxicity is of concern. We report our results with whole abdominopelvic intensity-modulated radiation
Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a rare tumor that mainly affects adolescents, and typically involves the abdominal and pelvic peritoneum. The present study reports one case of giant DSRCT, treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy, and reviews the available medical literature. A
BACKGROUND
Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a rare, aggressive, malignant neoplasm that has recently been characterized. It has not been associated with a primary visceral organ. In women, cases are even more rare and often have some ovarian involvement.
METHODS
An 11-year-old girl
BACKGROUND
The objectives of this phase I study were to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), toxicity profile, and pharmacokinetics of a 24-hour continuous intravenous infusion of trabectedin administered to children and adolescents with refractory or relapsed solid tumors.
METHODS
Patients
OBJECTIVE
To determine the maximum tolerated dose and the toxicity profile of the PDGF receptor pathway inhibitor SU101 in pediatric patients with refractory solid tumors, and to define the plasma pharmacokinetics of SU101 and its active metabolite SU0020 in children.
METHODS
Patients between 3 and
Novel therapy as part of sarcoma treatment schemas can enhance quality of life and is important in improving outcomes of high-risk sarcomas. Additional chemotherapy and biotherapy options to reduce tumor burden and prevent metastases include intra-arterial chemotherapy in osteosarcoma; intrapleural
