Radiation Induced Sarcoma clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Predictive Study of Radiation Induced Sarcoma

SARI

Start date: December 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Development of sarcoma within or adjacent to radiation field is a well known event of poor prognosis and unknown risk factors. Advanced techniques of radiation therapy including intensity modulated radiation therapy, tomotherapy or Arc therapy are providing new modalities of radiation delivery that could be responsible for developing these induced tumors. There is little data on molecular biology of radiation induced sarcoma even if some tools are still available to characterize these types of tumors aiming to compare their profile to a sarcoma observed in non irradiated area. An update of the GETO-GCSF registry, currently called CONTICANET data base in the framework of EORTC, represents the backbone of the project. The next step should follow two axes, a clinical one based on the dosimetric analysis of the characteristics of delivered radiation therapy and the second one based on a molecular characterization of the sarcomas developed in irradiated field.The data base will be updated and organized through the CONTICANET network and the radiation oncologists involved in the treatment of soft tissue sarcoma. A retrospective analysis of the clinical data and the parameters describing the initial treatment will be registered using the methodology proposed by I. Diallo for radiation induced tumors developed in childhood. The most recent data will be extracted in DICOM format for intercomparison in a dedicated software.A centralized review of pathological specimens is planned to validate the correct classification of the tumors inside the current staging system developed for soft tissue sarcoma.
