Lead Sponsor:

Grupo de Apoio ao Adolescente e a Crianca com Cancer

Conditions:

High Grade Osteosarcoma

Eligibility:

All Genders

1-30 years

Phase:

PHASE2

Brief Summary

Preclinical models show that a daily antiangiogenic regimen at low-dose may be effective against chemotherapy-resistant tumors. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of maintenance therapy...

Detailed Description

The study design includes a backbone of 10 weeks of preoperative therapy using MAP (High-dose methotrexate, cisplatin, and doxorubicin). Following surgery, non-metastatic patients were randomized by b...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients with high-grade malignancy osteosarcoma , biopsy-proven , newly diagnosed , previously untreated . Patients with osteosarcoma as a second malignancy should also be eligible .
  • Patients with any primary site , with or without metastases at diagnosis , will be accepted and treated.
  • Patients \< 30 years.

  • Patients must have adequate hepatic function, defined as total bilirubin \< 1.5 x normal, aspartate aminotransferase (AST or SGOT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT or SGPT) \< 2.5 x normal.
  • Patients must have adequate cardiac function defined by a shortening fraction \> 27 % by echocardiogram or ejection fraction \> 47 % by radioisotopic angiogram .
  • If pre- chemotherapy amputation is necessary, the patient is included in the study and eligible to survival analyzes, however the pathological analyze response will be not performed.
