Doxorubicin plus dacarbazine (DTIC) in advanced solitary fibrous tumor (SFT): An Italian retrospective case series analysis.
2016
11042Background: The reported response rate to chemotherapy (CT) in SFT is low both with anthracycline-based regimens ( ≤ 20%) and with trabectedin ( < 10%). DTIC can be active. We report on the co...
An observational, multicenter, retrospective, Italian Sarcoma Group (ISG) study of trabectedin in patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma (STS).
2018
e23502Background: Trabectedin (T) is approved for patients (pts) with STS after failure of anthracyclines (A) and ifosfamide (I), or pts unsuited to receive AI. ISG performed a retrospective study ...
BMI as a risk factor for toxicities in patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma treated with trabectedin.
2017
e22517 Background: Since the first steps of its clinical development, trabectedin was noticed to be extremely active against myxoid liposarcoma (MLS), whose pathogenesis seems to be associated to the presence of the t(12;16)(q13;p11) translocation, resulting in the expression of FUS-DDIT3 fusion genes. Therefore, the drug seems to induce a maturation of MLS lipoblasts, with transition of the residual spindle non-lipogenic cells into mature vacuolated lipoblasts. This effect could be prevented by the increase of leptin circulating levels in obese patients. For these reasons we designed this retrospective analysis in order to evaluate the BMI status (measure of total adipose content) as a pr…
