Sarcoma Trials

List of key sarcoma trials

GOG 277: Adjuvant Gemcitabine Plus Docetaxel Followed by Doxorubicin Versus Observation for High-Grade Uterine Leiomyosarcoma

Adjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine plus docetaxel followed by doxorubicin does not show superior outcomes compared to observation for high-grade uterine leiomyosarcoma.

GeDDiS Trial: Gemcitabine and docetaxel versus doxorubicin as first-line treatment sarcomas

Doxorubicin remains the standard first-line treatment for most patients with advanced soft-tissue sarcoma, as gemcitabine and docetaxel did not demonstrate superiority in survival outcomes

Trabectedin

LMS-04: Doxorubicin alone versus doxorubicin with trabectedin for metastatic or unresectable leiomyosarcoma

The combination of doxorubicin and trabectedin significantly improves progression-free survival compared to doxorubicin alone for the first-line treatment of metastatic or unresectable leiomyosarcoma, with an acceptable safety profile despite increased toxicity.
