A retrospective analysis of treatment of 67 children suffering localized osteogenic sarcoma received at the Institute's Clinic (1977-1995) has been carried out. The best 5-year survival results were obtained with the COSS-91 and PECOSS programs and those for pre- and post-operative COMBAP chemotherapy (77.8 and 70.0%, respectively). Another randomized comparative study of the effectiveness of different polychemotherapy and pre-operative radiation schedules are being planned.

Introduction: Osteosarcoma (OS), a prevalent metastatic cancer among young individuals, is associated with a grim prognosis. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), including C1QTNF1-AS1, are pivotal regulators of cancer cell proliferation and motility. As an oncogene, C1QTNF1-AS1 is implicated in various tumor types, such as colorectal, pancreatic, hepatocellular carcinomas, and OS.

Although osteosarcomas are the most frequent primary malignant bone tumors, the primary cranial manifestation of this condition is very rare with only a limited number of cases presented in the literature. We present the case of a 20-year-old male patient who underwent single-session surgical intervention for resection of right frontal osteosarcoma with a tailor-made craniotomy and cranioplasty using virtually designed 3D-printed templates and molds. Subsequently, the patient was treated according to the EURAMOS protocol and received adjuvant systemic chemotherapy.

Objective: Osteosarcoma, a highly malignant bone tumor, poses significant treatment challenges due to its propensity for stemness and drug resistance, particularly against doxorubicin (DOX). This study aims to investigate the mechanism by which β-elemene reduces the stemness of osteosarcoma stem cells and ultimately decreases DOX resistance by inhibiting the Akt/FoxO1 signaling pathway and activating a macrophage-mediated inflammatory microenvironment.

Methods: Osteosarcoma stem cells were isolated and induced for DOX resistance.

Introduction: This article describes the invention of graphene oxide (GO) or reduced graphene oxide (rGO) functionalised with 2-methoxy estradiol. The presence of polar hydroxyl groups enables the binding of 2-ME to GO/rGO through hydrogen bonds with epoxy and hydroxyl groups located on the surface and carbonyl and carboxyl groups located at the edges of graphene flake sheets.

Methods: The patented method of producing the subject of the invention and the research results regarding its anticancer effectiveness via cytotoxicity in an in vivo model (against A375 melanoma and 143B osteosarcoma cells) are described.

Department of Paediatric Oncology, Institut d'Haematologie et d'Oncologie Pédiatrique, Centre Léon-Bérard, Lyon, France. Electronic address:

Bone sarcomas, constituting less than 1% of malignant neoplasms across all age groups, are rare tumours possibly associated with genetic susceptibility syndromes. This review aims to provide recommendations for the detection of cancer predisposition syndromes associated with bone sarcomas and managing affected patients. Recommendations were formulated by a multidisciplinary working and reviewing group from GROUPOS and SFCE oncogenetic's group, including geneticists, oncologists, and radiologists.
