Tumor response assessment by Choi criteria in localized high-risk soft tissue sarcoma (STS) treated with chemotherapy (CT): Update at 10-year follow-up of an exploratory analysis on a phase III trial.
11044Background: We already reported (Cancer 2012;118:5857) on better correlation of Choi criteria (Choi) than RECIST with the outcome of pts affected by high-risk STS entering a multicentric Itali...
High-risk soft tissue sarcomas treated with perioperative chemotherapy: Improving prognostic classification in a randomised clinical trial
Background: Patients with extremity and trunk wall soft tissue sarcoma (STS) with high malignancy grade and size >5 cm are at high-risk of death. This risk varies depending also on other patient and tumour features, including histologic subtype. This study investigated whether a prognostic nomogram can improve risk assessment of these patients. Methods: Data from high-risk STS patients enrolled in a randomised controlled trial investigating different perioperative chemotherapy regimens were analysed. Ten-year probability of overall survival (OS) and incidence of distant metastasis (DM) were computed using the prognostic nomogram Sarculator (pr-OS and inc-DM, respectively). Tumour response a…
Short, full-dose neoadjuvant chemotherapy in localized high-risk adult soft tissue sarcomas (STS): An exploratory subgroup analysis on responding patients in a randomized controlled trial comparing 3 neoadjuvant versus 3 neoadjuvant + 2 adjuvant cycles of full dose anthracycline and ifosfamide chemotherapy at a 10yr median FU.

The sarculator stratified prognosis of patients with high-risk soft tissue sarcomas (STS) of extremities and trunk wall treated with perioperative chemotherapy in a randomised controlled trial (RCT).
11016 Background: Patients with extremity and trunk wall STS with high malignancy grade and size larger than 5cm are considered at high risk of death, but in fact this risk varies broadly depending on histologic subtype and size. The Sarculator, a nomogram for STS, can improve prognostic assessment of these patients. This tool was evaluated for stratifying risk of distant metastasis (DM) and overall survival (OS) in a RCT investigating perioperative chemotherapy. Methods: High-risk STS patients were randomly assigned to receive either three cycles of preoperative chemotherapy with epirubicin (120 mg/m2) and ifosfamide (9 g/m2) or the same three preoperative cycles followed by two further p…
