Treatment of adult patients with metastatic sarcoma: current shift in concepts

摘要

We describe herein the current concepts tested in clinical trials dedicated to patients with metastatic soft tissue sarcomas: identify predictive factors under anthracyclin-based regimens, identify patients beneficing from polychemotherapy, benefit of maintenance treatment, use of non-progression rate rather than response rate for selecting new drugs, histology-tailored or biological target-tailored second-line treatment.
