Around 3,300 people are diagnosed with soft tissue sarcoma (STS) each year in the UK, and a significant proportion of STS diagnoses are in people aged under 30 years. STS can arise from various tissue types and is comprised of over 50 tumour types. Although STS is treated with a …
This research study is designed to find out if radiation therapy treatment prior to surgery is safe and effective to treat soft tissue sarcomas. 30 participants with soft tissue sarcoma will be enrolled and can expect to be on study for up to 5 years.
Patients with extremity soft tissue sarcoma (STS) are at high risk of recurrence. Pre-operative radiotherapy is used to increase the safe removal of tumors and improve local control in these patients. Increasing the preoperative radiotherapy dose with standard techniques might lead to normal tissue toxicity and postoperative wound complications. GRID …
Nearly half of patients with high-grade, localized soft tissue sarcoma (STS) of extremities and trunk wall develop disease recurrence after local therapy. Adjuvant chemotherapy with ifosfamide and doxorubicin may improve long-term disease-free survival, but the benefit of adjuvant treatment is limited and predictive factors for treatment response are lacking. The …
This research study will collect blood and tumor tissue samples from patients with soft tissue sarcoma to look at circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). When tumor cells are damaged or die, DNA from the tumor cells are released into the blood stream as the cells break down. This is called …
This study will evaluate whether a short nutritional intervention before surgery can improve recovery in patients with bone and soft tissue sarcomas. Patients with these tumors often have a higher risk of poor nutrition and loss of muscle mass. These problems may increase the risk of complications after major orthopedic …
This study is being done to find out whether the study drug Retifanlimab, a monoclonal antibody against the PD-1 protein, combined with gemcitabine and docetaxel, is a safe and effective treatment for your disease. Gemcitabine and docetaxel are chemotherapy drugs that are commonly used to treat soft tissue sarcoma. Retifanlimab …
Prospective Italian study aimed to provide a description of the population affected by Epithelioid Sarcoma (ES)
A total of 60 patients with metastatic/surgically unresectable bone and soft tissue sarcomas who had previously received multi-target TKI therapy and failed were enrolled to evaluate the efficacy and safety.
The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and efficacy of an abbreviated course of preoperative radiation, given over five days, for patients with soft tissue sarcoma of the extremity, trunk or retroperitoneum. This is in contrast to standard preoperative radiation, which is given over 25 days.
