Purpose: Nanoparticle-encapsulated drug formulations can improve responses to conventional chemotherapy by increasing drug retention within the tumor and by promoting a more effective anti-tumor immune response than free drug. New drug
In patients who have advanced soft tissue sarcoma that is no longer localized, systemic chemotherapy is the most reasonable option for treatment. The decision to treat or to use experimental or conventional agents should be based on the clinical assessment of anticipated net benefit in quality of
BACKGROUND
In the treatment of bone sarcoma, evaluation of chemotherapeutic effects is extremely important. In this study, we compared radiological evaluations and histological response, and developed a combined radiological scoring system for assessing the response to chemotherapy.
METHODS
A total
An 80-year-old female presented with a mass in the left upper eyelid margin that had developed during chemotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia. The mass was elastic, hard, and pinkish, with a relatively smooth surface but without madarosis. The histopathological findings corresponded to a myeloid
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is a mainstay in treating soft tissue sarcomas. Soft tissue sarcomas can show an increase in size and central necrosis, with a decrease in the viable tumor, as an initial response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Thus, the maximum tumor diameter may not reliably assess the
Despite many advances in cancer therapy, metastatic disease continues to be incurable in the majority of cancer patients. There is an need for more efficient and less toxic treatments in this setting. Oncolytic virotherapy represents a novel promising direction in the treatment of cancer. Based on
OBJECTIVE
A total of 2,185 patients with advanced soft tissue sarcomas who had been treated in seven clinical trials investigating the use of doxorubicin- or epirubicin-containing regimens as first-line chemotherapy were studied in this prognostic-factor analysis.
METHODS
Overall survival time
BACKGROUND
There is no proven benefit of adjuvant treatment of uterine sarcoma (US). SARCGYN phase III study compared adjuvant polychemotherapy followed by pelvic radiotherapy (RT) (arm A) versus RT alone (arm B) conducted to detect an increase ≥ 20% of 3-year PFS.
METHODS
Patients with FIGO stage ≤
Despite increasing evidence that high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (HDCT/auto-SCT) might improve the survival of patients with high-risk or recurrent solid tumors, therapy effectiveness for bone and soft tissue sarcoma treatment remains unclear. This study
Approximately 50% of patients with high-grade soft tissue sarcoma (STS) will develop pulmonary metastasis. This is the most frequent cause of death and improving treatment is warranted. Preoperative chemotherapy is used for selected patients, usually those with less favorable prognosis and mainly
While most pediatric sarcomas respond to front-line therapy, some bone sarcomas do not show radiographic response like soft-tissue sarcomas (rhabdomyosarccomas) but do show 90% necrosis. Though, new therapies are urgently needed to improve survival and quality of life in pediatric Synovial sarcoma (SS) is considered to be a chemosensitive, soft tissue sarcoma. Therefore, neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant chemotherapy (N/AC) is used for the treatment of high-risk SS patients. However, the role of N/AC remains controversial. The present study aimed to review the clinical outcomes of
AIDS-related Kaposi sarcoma (AIDS-KS), a common malignancy in Kenya is associated with high morbidity and mortality. AIDS-KS is treated using bleomycin and vincristine (BV) plus or minus doxorubicin in most low resource settings, with response rates ranging from 24.8 to 87%. Survival Radiotherapy (RT) and chemotherapy (CT) are the major therapeutics to treat cancer patients. Conventional in vitro 2D models are insufficient to study the combined effects of RT and CT towards optimized dose selection or drug screening. Soft-tissue sarcomas (STS) are rare cancers with profound
Rexin-G, a pathotropic nanoparticle bearing a cytocidal cyclin G1 construct was tested in a phase I/II study for chemotherapy-resistant sarcomas and a phase II study for chemotherapy-resistant osteosarcoma. Twenty sarcoma patients and 22 osteosarcoma patients received escalating doses of Rexin-G
