On the basis of this case and a comprehensive literature review, we recommend that clinicians consider the possibility of undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma of the liver in patients presenting with non-specific clinical and serological markers, particularly when there is inconsistency between ultrasound and computed tomography imaging findings, along with elevated 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake observed in both the cystic wall and lesion on positron emission tomography-computed tomography examination. Given the rarity and high-grade malignancy of undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma of the liver, heightened clinical awareness and recognition are crucial for early diagnosis and successful therapy.

The study demonstrates that combining E5-siRNA with Oxaliplatin or Ifosfamide enhances the efficacy of chemotherapy in HPV-16 positive cervical cancer cells. This synergistic approach effectively targets multiple aspects of cancer cell behavior, including proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and stemness. The findings suggest that this combination strategy could potentially allow for lower chemotherapy doses, thereby reducing toxicity while maintaining therapeutic efficacy. This research provides valuable insights into targeting HPV E5 as a complementary approach to existing therapies focused on E6 and E7 oncoproteins, opening new avenues for combination therapies in cervical cancer treatment.

The association between cell properties and clinical characters of patients provided by our data can act as potential prognostic factors to help physicians to develop effective personalized chemotherapy for osteosarcoma treatments.

The different spatial distribution of immune populations and their different association with prognosis support NAC as a modifier of tumour immune infiltrate in STS.

Primary prostate sarcoma is extremely rare and typically has a poor prognosis once diagnosed. Early diagnosis should be based on pathological and immunohistochemical testing results, followed by prompt surgical treatment and adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Despite these measures, recurrence is common, underscoring the need for a detailed and appropriate treatment plan and systematic therapy for affected patients.

Decision-making in case of rare histological entities with sparse recommendations in the literature poses a challenge to the treating physician. Treatment strategies should consider oncological safety as well as options of preserving fertility. Gonadotoxic potential of different strategies should be taken into consideration and discussed in detail with the affected patient.

Despite advances in our understanding of the genetics and molecular biology of MPNST, further research is warranted to: (1) unravel the complex pathogenesis of this condition; (2) improve diagnostic yield; (3) delineate the appropriate roles of chemotherapy and radiation; and (4) develop a targeted therapy (or combination of such treatments) that is well tolerated and prolongs survival.

Surgery was the first treatment in most patients (46 %) and 80 % were treated with polychemotherapies, showing longer progression free survival (PFS) with ifosfamide-based than with platinum-based regimens...This is the largest adult European cohort of this orphan tumor disease, showing epidemiologic and molecular features as well as relevant clinical data. Awareness to prevent misdiagnosis, fast contact to a specialized nation-wide center and referral to clinical studies are essential as long-term survival is rarely achieved with any of the current therapeutic regimes.

There is a numerically higher ORR for ifosfamide-based therapy compared to platinum-based therapy, with limited durability. OS at 3 years is only 19%, and development of effective therapies is an urgent unmet need for this patient population.

He was treated with adjuvant TIP (paclitaxel, ifosfamide, and cisplatin) with subsequent ctDNA clearance. Our data suggests that a personalized, tumor-informed ctDNA assay is not only useful for MRD monitoring, but also highly predictive of treatment response and imaging-based progression in patients with penile SCC. In our sample, MRD status correlated with both radiographic progression and clinical outcomes. Prospective studies are needed to better understand how ctDNA can be used to guide neoadjuvant and adjuvant approaches, including treatment intensification or de-escalation, in patients with penile SCC.

Karyomegalic interstitial nephropathy (KIN) has been reported as an incidental finding in patients with childhood cancer treated with ifosfamide..

Our findings suggest that early disease progression before LC in patients with osteosarcoma is associated with poor prognosis. However, patients initially diagnosed with localized disease and who later exhibited local-disease-only progression appeared to have better outcomes. The potential role of IE in the treatment of patients exhibiting early progression merits further investigation in a larger study cohort.

IHC for SS18::SSX and SSX antibodies are beneficial for diagnosing general SS and SS of the bone. Moreover, SS of the bone should be considered in the differential diagnosis of spindle cell sarcomas of the bone. Wide resection and chemotherapy are recommended as current treatment strategies, although further studies are required regarding treatment validity.

CRT consisted of two cycles of doxorubicine (50 mg/m on d2) plus ifosfamide (1500 mg/m on d1-5, q28) plus radiation doses of up to 60 Gy. Both CRT and CRTH are well tolerated with an expected rate of wound complications. The results suggest that adding hyperthermia may improve tumor response.

Six cycles of doxorubicin plus ifosfamide initially controlled the disease. However, newly developed lung metastases grew rapidly during subsequent cycles of chemotherapy, and the patient died 10 months after the initial diagnosis. The initial presentation of multiple organ involvement, including the heart, is a rare clinical manifestation of pleomorphic liposarcoma.

Perioperative chemotherapy was used for the combination of RHT and CTX, mostly Ifosfamide-based...The gathered data strengthen the beneficial role of RHT in the multimodal setting. Further expert consensus and clinical trials are required to determine the optimal integration of RHT in treating STS.

In patients with Wilms tumor, the risk of toxicity from 10.5 Gy of WAI is low. For 12 Gy fractionated TBI with various mixtures of chemotherapy, the risk of severe toxicity is low, but low-grade toxicity is not uncommon. Partial kidney data are limited and toxicity is associated heavily with the use of nephrotoxic chemotherapeutic agents. Our efforts demonstrate the need for improved data gathering, systematic follow-up, and reporting in future clinical studies. Current radiation dose used for Wilms tumor and TBI appear to be safe; however, efforts in effective kidney-sparing TBI and WAI regimens may reduce the risks of renal injury without compromising cure.

In children with HRR/INI- tumors, VDC-ICE chemotherapy was well-tolerated without excessive toxicities, even amongst young patients with solitary kidneys. Concerns about toxicity should not preclude an intensive ifosfamide-containing regimen from use in future trials in this population.

Despite logistic and supportive care challenges, TIP can be administered completely in the outpatient setting.

HIF1α and γH2AFX could be potential biomarkers for PR prediction after neoadjuvant treatment in STS.

Material and Methods We analysed preoperative core biopsy samples of 20 patients with MRSTS who received 5×5 Gy radiotherapy combined with three cycles of doxorubicin-ifosfamide chemotherapy in a phase II clinical trial (NCTXXXXXXXX). D Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma CDK4 Amplification - - D Dedifferentiated liposarcoma CDK4 Amplification - - E Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma RB1 Nonsense mutation c.958C>T p.R320* D Myxofibrosarcoma AKT2 Amplification - - D Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma PTEN Gene deletion - - D Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma PTEN Gene deletion - - E Pleomorphic liposarcoma PTEN Gene deletion - - D Myxofibrosarcoma NF1 Nonsense mutation c.3520C>T p.Q1174* D Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor NF1 Nonsense mutation c.1278G>A p.W426* D Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor Conclusion The detection of known mutations in MRSTS suggests poor pathological response to neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy. Identified mutations may indicate new therapeutic targets in the treatment of MRSTS.

TIP (Paclitaxel, Ifosfamide, Cisplatin) therapy was started after lung metastasis and increased serum CEA were identified. CT after 2 cycles of TIP therapy revealed disappearance of lung metastasis and normalization of serum CEA. Five months later, CT showed recurrence of lung metastases.

In the case of the patient, adjuvant chemotherapy was initiated using Doxorubicin, and Ifosfamide with Mesna. High index of suspicion is essential to diagnose rare case of Undifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcoma. Common diagnostic modality results (Chest CT scan and Chest X-ray) with Biopsy and specific immunohistochemical stain results are paramount to derive with diagnosis. High prognosis is attainable if early detection and appropriate treatment is initiated.

He underwent 4 cycles of chemotherapy with Adriamycin, Ifosfamide, and Mesna with follow-up imaging showing no recurrence of the aortic tumor with patent interposition graft.- Aortic sarcomas are endoluminal tumors that predominantly arise from intima. Our case was unique, not only the aortic tumors are rare, but the presentation with hypertensive urgency and tumor embolism causing renal infarct and left femoral pain is also rare.

Patients receiving NACT (methotrexate + ifosfamide + adriamycin) were assigned into the control group (CNG; n = 65), while those treated with rh-Endo plus NACT were included in the combination group (CMG; n = 76). An evidently higher 2-year survival rate was determined in CMG (P < 0.05). rh-Endo plus NACT is more effective than NACT alone in the treatment of osteosarcoma, which can validly restore the balance of vascular endothelial cells, reduce inflammation, and is worth promoting in clinic.

Complete radiographic responses after chemotherapy were achieved in patients treated with vincristine/doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide alternating with ifosfamide/etoposide, vincristine/doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide alternating with cyclophosphamide/etoposide (regimen I), and ifosfamide/carboplatin/etoposide. Tumors demonstrated chemosensitivity with anthracycline-based regimens and ifosfamide/carboplatin/etoposide. Radiotherapy was required to achieve durable response in most patients.

This retrospective study aimed to describe the activity of BOMP-EPI (bleomycin, vincristine, methotrexate and cisplatin alternating with etoposide, cisplatin and ifosfamide), an alternative platinum-based regimen, in adult patients with relapsed/metastatic RMS. BOMP-EPI was an active chemotherapy regimen in adults with pediatric-type metastatic RMS, with outcomes in terms of survival that seem superior to what was expected for this poor-prognosis population. Low HMGB1 expression level was identified as a predictive factor of better response to this treatment.

Finally, molecular dynamics simulations were used to investigate the stability of the best selected docked complexes. Taken together, daidzein, kaempferol, and genistein exhibited a result comparable to ifosfamide in the proposed in silico study and can be further analyzed as possible candidate compounds in biological in vitro studies against ES.

Rhabdomyosarcoma is an aggressive malignancy with high metastatic potential. Therefore, only an accurate diagnosis and early treatment can ensure better survival. Surgery in expert hands seems to be a good option for progressive retroperitoneal nodes. However, further studies are needed to determine the place of surgery in this setting.

We sought to assess the influence of the O-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation on response and progression-free survival (PFS) following initiation of irinotecan and temozolomide (IT), PFS following initiation of vincristine, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide alternating with ifosfamide and etoposide (VDC-IE), and overall survival (OS). MGMT-promoter methylation did not correlate with clinical activity or outcomes following the IT regimen for advanced ES. However, methylated MGMT predicted significantly superior PFS following initiation of the standard VDC-IE protocol.
