Doxorubicin plus dacarbazine, doxorubicin plus ifosfamide, or doxorubicin alone as a first‐line treatment for advanced leiomyosarcoma: A propensity score matching analysis from the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Soft Tissue and Bone Sarcoma Group

Abstract: BACKGROUND:The optimal treatment for advanced leiomyosarcoma is still debated. Given histotype-specific prospective controlled data lacking, this study retrospectively evaluated doxorubicin plus dacarbazine, doxorubicin plus ifosfamide, and doxorubicin alone as first-line treatments for advanced/metastatic leiomyosarcoma treated at European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Soft Tissue and Bone Sarcoma Group (EORTC-STBSG) sites. METHODS: The inclusion criteria were a confirmed histological diag… Show more

“…Top1 inhibitors’ camptothecin derivatives used are irinotecan (colorectal [ 169 ], pancreatic (in combination) [ 170 ], and small cell lung cancers (in clinical trials and in combination) [ 171 , 172 ]), and topotecan (ovarian [ 173 , 174 ], cervical [ 175 ], and small cell lung cancers [ 176 ]). Top2 anticancer drugs commonly used are from the anthracycline group such as doxorubicin (acute leukemia [ 177 ], lymphomas [ 178 ], sarcomas [ 179 , 180 ], and solid tumors [ 181 ]), epirubicin (breast cancer [ 182 ]), valrubicin (bladder cancer [ 183 ]), and idarubicin (acute myeloid leukemia [ 184 ]), from the anthracenedione classes: mitoxantron and pixantron (lymphoma, [ 185 , 186 , 187 ]), and from the epipodopodophyllotoxins group such as etoposide (testicular [ 188 ] and small cell lung cancers [ 189 ]) and teniposide (brain [ 190 ] and small cell lung [ 191 ] cancers, acute lymphocytic leukemia [ 192 ]). Only a few numbers of Top1 inhibitors are in clinical trials including the promising indenoisoquinoline derivatives LMP400 (Indotecan), LMP776 (Indimitecan) (phase I), and LMP744 examined in a phase I study on lymphoma in dogs [ 193 ].…”

“…More intensive CHT increases the risk of serious adverse events without providing significant benefit. Given the limited role of ifosfamide in leiomyosarcoma, doxorubicin+dacarbazine may be an alternative, less toxic treatment option in this group of patients [58]. Other treatment regimens cannot be recommended outside clinical trials.…”

“…Uterine leiomyosarcoma (uLMS) is a rare tumor accounting for approximately 2% of all uterine malignancies and 65% of all uterine sarcomas, with an estimated incidence of 0.60 per 100.000 women/year [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ]. Currently, uLMSs are staged in accordance with the Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2009 staging system, which does not include tumor grading [ 6 , 7 ] ( Table 1 ).…”

“…Total hysterectomy represents the therapeutic mainstay for localized disease [ 2 , 3 ] and, although there are no available data indicating that oophorectomy improves survival outcomes, bilateral salpingo–oophorectomy is considered a reasonable option in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women [ 8 , 9 ]. However, despite radical surgery, the risk of recurrence remains high, ranging between 50% and 70% [ 10 ] and to date, age, tumor stage and tumor size are recognized as prognostic factors [ 9 , 11 , 12 ] in resected uLMS.…”
