Synovial sarcoma is a rare and aggressive tumor that primarily affects soft tissues, including the mediastinum, and predominantly affects younger adults. A 23-year-old male patient with mediastinal synovial sarcoma underwent debulking surgery and received 3 cycles of doxorubicin, ifosfamide, and mesna chemotherapy. Mediastinal synovial sarcoma presents diagnostic challenges and poor prognosis. Treatment involves surgical resection, adjuvant chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. Mediastinal synovial sarcoma can be diagnosed through histopathological and immunohistochemical examination. Adjuvant chemotherapy led to a partial response, showing a decrease in tumor size and resolution of pleural effusion, demonstrating a positive interim outcome.

Synovial chondromatosis is a condition that rarely occurs in the hand and wrist. Recurrence and malignant transformation are two potential complications of the disease. We set out to retrospectively review 35 years of practice within our sarcoma and tertiary hand unit and identify recurrence or malignant transformation.

The adoptive transfer of TCR-T cells specific to neoantigens preferentially exhibits potent cytotoxicity to tumor cells and has shown promising efficacy in various preclinical human cancers. In this study, we first identified a functional TCR, Tcr-1, which selectively recognized the SYT-SSX fusion neoantigen shared by most synovial sarcomas. Engineered T-cell expressing Tcr-1 (Tcr-T1) demonstrated HLA-A*2402-restricted, antigen-specific anti-tumoral efficacy against synovial sarcoma cells, both in vitro and in vivo.

The present study was a retrospective single-center study. A total of 81 patients diagnosed with metastatic soft tissue sarcoma were included who received pazopanib therapy. Clinical data, including age at diagnosis, histological subtype, treatments received before pazopanib, number of metastatic sites at the time of initiation of treatment, progression-free survival and overall survival time under pazopanib treatment, side effects and response evaluation in follow-up imaging after initiation of pazopanib therapy, were recorded.
