Renal vein leiomyosarcoma: imaging and clinical features of a renal cell carcinoma mimic.

Only registered users can translate articles

Renal vein leiomyosarcoma is a rare tumor whose clinical and imaging features can significantly overlap with those of advanced primary renal neoplasms, particularly renal cell carcinoma. IRB approval was obtained for a retrospective review of clinical and imaging information for five patients with

Pulmonary Hypertension due to a Pulmonary Artery Leiomyosarcoma: A Case Report.

Only registered users can translate articles

Background. Primary pulmonary artery sarcomas are very rare and their histologic type, called leiomyosarcoma, is even rarer. Case Report. A 64-year-old woman presented with progressive weakness, fatigue, malaise, and dyspnea, and a marked elevation of pulmonary artery pressure was admitted. She was

Pulmonary hypertension due to a pulmonary artery leiomyosarcoma: A case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Primary pulmonary artery sarcomas are very rare and their histologic type called leiomyosarcoma is even rarer. These tumors are frequently misdiagnosed as pulmonary thromboembolism in clinical settings. Many patients receive anticoagulant therapy without response, and many are diagnosed

Multimodal treatment with doxorubicin, cisplatin, and ifosfamide for the treatment of advanced or metastatic uterine leiomyosarcoma: a unicentric experience.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Uterine leiomyosarcoma (ULMS) is a rare gynecologic malignancy characterized by a poor prognosis due to a high rate of local and metastatic recurrences. Chemotherapy with doxorubicin or ifosfamide or both is associated with a 10% to 30% objective response rate. We report a monocentric

A phase II study single agent of aflibercept (VEGF Trap) in patients with recurrent or metastatic gynecologic carcinosarcomas and uterine leiomyosarcoma. A trial of the Princess Margaret Hospital, Chicago and California Cancer Phase II Consortia.

OBJECTIVE The aim of this multi-institutional non randomized phase II trial was to determine the efficacy and safety of single agent aflibercept (VEGF Trap), a recombinant fusion protein that blocks multiple vascular endothelial growth factor isoforms, in women with gynecologic soft tissue

SARC018_SPORE02: Phase II Study of Mocetinostat Administered with Gemcitabine for Patients with Metastatic Leiomyosarcoma with Progression or Relapse following Prior Treatment with Gemcitabine-Containing Therapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) can reverse chemoresistance, enhance chemotherapy-induced cytotoxicity, and reduce sarcoma proliferation in cell lines and animal models. We sought to determine the safety and toxicity of mocetinostat and its ability to reverse chemoresistance when administered

Long-term response to first-line trabectedin in an elderly female patient with a metastatic leiomyosarcoma unfit for anthracycline.

Only registered users can translate articles

Systemic chemotherapy comprising anthracycline monotherapy is the standard regimen for metastatic soft tissue sarcomas, particularly leiomyosarcomas, which have limited sensitivity to ifosfamide. However, the optimal chemotherapy regimen for elderly patients, especially those considered unfit for

Giant leiomyosarcoma: A case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Uterine leiomyosarcoma is a rare uterine malignancy. Most of the patients lack symptoms or present with a rapidly enlarging pelvic mass. METHODS We report on a very large leiomyosarcoma in a woman presenting with a 3 months history of rapidly growing adominal mass and fatigue. Laparotomy

Primary pulmonary leiomyosarcoma -- a case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

Sarcomas are mesenchymal tumors that originate from the stromal elements of the bronchial wall or from interstices of lung parenchyma. Pulmonary sarcomatous neoplasms are a rare and diagnostically challenging group of tumors. They constitute only 0.2%-0.5% of all primary lung malignancies. Primary

Oral administration of sunitinib malate for long-term survival of a patient with multiple lung metastases from renal leiomyosarcoma.

Only registered users can translate articles

Sunitinib, an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma and imatinib-refractory gastrointestinal stromal tumor. In non-gastrointestinal stromal tumor soft tissue sarcomas, the activity of this

Sunitinib malate in the treatment of recurrent or persistent uterine leiomyosarcoma: a Gynecologic Oncology Group phase II study.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE New agents are needed for patients with metastatic uterine leiomyosarcoma who progress after treatment with doxorubicin or gemcitabine-docetaxel. Agents targeting tumor vasculature have potential for activity in leiomyosarcoma. We aimed to assess the activity of sunitinib in patients with

Efficacy of trabectedin in advanced soft tissue sarcoma: beyond lipo- and leiomyosarcoma.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Trabectedin is effective in leiomyosarcoma and liposarcoma, especially the myxoid variant, related to the presence of the FUS-CHOP transcript. We evaluated the efficacy of trabectedin in specific subgroups of patients with soft tissue sarcomas (STS). METHODS Seventy-two patients with

Trabectedin in combination with doxorubicin for first-line treatment of advanced uterine or soft-tissue leiomyosarcoma (LMS-02): a non-randomised, multicentre, phase 2 trial.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Metastatic leiomyosarcomas of uterine or soft-tissue origin have poor prognosis and moderate chemosensitivity. Trabectedin has shown activity in pretreated leiomyosarcoma. We did a single-group, multicentre, phase 2 trial (LMS-02) to assess the effect of first-line doxorubicin and

Efficacy and safety of trabectedin in patients with advanced or metastatic liposarcoma or leiomyosarcoma after failure of prior anthracyclines and ifosfamide: results of a randomized phase II study of two different schedules.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of trabectedin in a phase II, open-label, multicenter, randomized study in adult patients with unresectable/metastatic liposarcoma or leiomyosarcoma after failure of prior conventional chemotherapy including anthracyclines and

Primary leiomyosarcoma of the liver mimicking liver abscess.
