Secondary Osteosarcoma After Bone Marrow Transplant: An Aggressive Disease

Abstract: We describe three children who developed an osteosarcoma after receiving treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia, which included an allogeneic bone marrow transplant (BMT). We discuss the therapeutic options. None of the patients responded to conventional chemotherapy, but one patient given regorafenib showed a temporary response. We conclude that osteosarcoma after BMT has an aggressive course and it is worth further investigating multikinase inhibitors in this setting.

“…From the perspective of comprehensive treatment, SO is less sensitive to conventional chemotherapy than primary osteosarcoma 34 , and surgery becomes a radical treatment. In addition, some researchers found that biophysical therapy, immunotherapy and Regorafenib may be adjunctive therapies affecting patients’ surgical survival 10 . Therefore, we believe that assisted surgical treatment can also improve patients’ understanding of the treatment of SO, thus improving patients’ surgical compliance, whose effectiveness clearly needs more investigation.…”
