Comment Paediatric Rhabdomyosarcoma Survival Extended With Maintena The updated results of the rms2005 randomized study confirm that patients with non metastatic high risk rhabdomyosarcoma have an improved survival when maintenance chemotherapy (mc) with vinorelbine and low dose cyclophosphamide is added to the standard multidisciplinary treatment. a more recent randomized study adopted the same strategy, but. To our knowledge, this study is the first randomised trial to show some improvement in survival with maintenance chemotherapy (six cycles of intravenous vinorelbine 25 mg m 2 on days 1, 8, and 15, and daily oral cyclophosphamide 25 mg m 2 on days 1–28) for patients with rhabdomyosarcoma. maintenance chemotherapy administered to patients with.
Comment Paediatric Rhabdomyosarcoma Survival Extended With Maintena In the lancet oncology, gianni bisogno and colleagues1 present the results of an important frontline, phase 3 randomised study in children and adolescents with rhabdomyosarcoma. this trial was done by the european paediatric soft tissue sarcoma study group (epssg) cooperative group, in children and adolescents with previously untreated high risk non metastatic rhabdomyosarcoma, and shows the. Maintenance chemotherapy (mc) defines the administration of prolonged relatively low intensity chemotherapy with the aim of "maintaining" tumor complete remission. this paper aims to report an update of the rms2005 trial, which demonstrated better survival for patients with high risk localized rhabdomyosarcoma (rms) when mc with vinorelbine and. Prof richard schilsky and dr gianni bisogno comment on data, during a press conference at the 2018 american society of clinical oncology (asco) annual meeting, from… comment: paediatric rhabdomyosarcoma survival extended with maintenance chemotherapy on vimeo. Introduction. rhabdomyosarcoma (rms) is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in children, comprising 4.5% of all childhood cancer with an annual incidence of 4.5 cases per 1 million children (1, 2). rms cells resemble skeletal muscle progenitor cells, though they can arise from non skeletal tissue origins (3).

Continual improvements in survival have been achieved for children and adolescents with cancer.[] between 1975 and 2020, childhood cancer mortality decreased by more than 50%.[1 3] between 1975 and 2017, the 5 year relative survival rate for patients with rhabdomyosarcoma increased from 53% to 71% for children younger than 15 years and from 30% to 52% for adolescents aged 15 to 19 years.[1,2. Abstract. in a recent article, bisogno et al. reported in a randomized trial that addition of metronomic maintenance therapy (mmt) with vinorelbine plus cyclophosphamide for children with rhabdomyosarcoma resulted in a significant increase in overall and event free survival. although the mechanism of action remains to be fully elucidated, this.
