Such knowledge is essential to optimize treatment compliance and follow-up care related to this rapidly developing, but still centralized treatment modality.
Patients And Methods: This qualitative study has an explorative design and applies a phenomenological and hermeneutical approach based on semi-structured interviews with 12 bone sarcoma patients who had undergone particle therapy abroad.
Purpose: LTX-315 is a first-in-class, 9-mer membranolytic peptide that has shown potent immunomodulatory properties in preclinical models. We conducted a phase I dose-escalating study of intratumoral LTX-315 administration in patients with advanced solid tumors.
Patients And Methods: Thirty-nine patients were enrolled, receiving LTX-315 injections into accessible tumors.
Background: We recently reported outcomes from a Scandinavian Sarcoma Group adjuvant study (SSG XX group A) conducted on localized and operable high risk soft tissue sarcoma (STS) of the extremities and trunk wall. SSG XX, group B, comprised of patients in a defined cohort with locally advanced STS considered at high risk for intralesional surgery. These patients received preoperative accelerated radiotherapy, together with neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy.
