Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are derived from mesenchymal cells, and can arise at any site. Retroperitoneal sarcomas (RPS) account for ~15% of STS, and patients have much worse survival outcomes than for extremity STS. Local (abdominal) recurrence of RPS is very common, due to the challenges of
Wide surgical removal of the tumor with the addition of a systemic treatment based on the antineoplastic drugs active against osteosarcoma (Adriamycin, Cisplatin, Ifosfamide, Methotrexate). The use of radiation therapy will be given to patients with unresectable tumors. It is recommended in patients
Study for the treatment of Ewing metastatic sarcoma with and induction phase with Vincristine (VIN), Adriamycin (ADM), Ciclofosfamide(CYC), Ifosfamide(IFO), Etoposide(ETO) and radiotherapy (RT)followed by a consolidation phase with Busulfan and Melfalan (BUMEL) and Peripheral Blood Stem Cells
The nilotinib-adriamycin combination will be given in 4 cycles of 21 days. In each cycle, nilotinib will be administered at fixed dose of 400 mg/12h orally during 6 consecutive days (1-6) and endovenous adriamycin (20 minutes) on day 5 at three levels (in phase I, dosage of 60 mg/m2, 65 mg/m2, and
Bladder cancer caused 14,680 deaths in 2010 in the US. In advanced bladder cancer, MVAC (methotrexate, vinblastine, adriamycin and cisplatin) and GC (gemcitabine, cisplatin) combination chemotherapy demonstrate comparable efficacy with response rates of 45%- 50%. Despite the reasonable initial
The role of chemotherapy in high-risk soft tissue sarcoma is controversial. Though many patients undergo initial curative resection, distant metastasis is a frequent event resulting in 5-year overall survival rates of only 50 - 60%. Neo-adjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy has been applied to achieve
Palonosetron is a drug that is designed to prevent and treat nausea and vomiting that is caused by chemotherapy.
If you are found to be eligible to take part in this study, you will have several blood samples taken (about 3 teaspoons each). Researchers will use the samples to monitor blood counts
The use of hematopoietic growth factors have been shown to reduce neutropenic complications and red cell transfusion requirements associated with chemotherapy. This trial will study the combination of pegfilgrastim and darbepoetin alfa administered once per cycle of chemotherapy. Prior experience
Palifermin is similar to a protein keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) that is naturally made in your body in small amounts. The function of palifermin is to stimulate the growth of specific cells that form the tissue lining of your mouth and digestive tract. Damage to these cells results in the
Group A:Adriamycin (60 mg/m2, d1, qd22) 75 mg/m2 may be applied instead of 60 mg/m2 for patients between 60 and 70 years of age (optional) Group B:Trofosfamide (300 mg absolute p.o. qd over 7 days, then 150 mg p.o. absolute qd continuously) In case of absence of any toxicity during treatment with
- The treatment is separated into three stages: 1) Initial treatment-chemotherapy and stem cell collection; 2) Treatment targeted directly to the main tumor-surgery and radiation therapy; 3) Intensified treatment: two stem cell transplants.
- Patients will receive intensive treatment with a
