- Abstract:
- Just a few years ago, all patients with metastatic soft tissue sarcoma received the same chemotherapy drugs. However, it is now recognised that the various sarcoma subtypes are different tumours with distinct genetic alterations and different biological behaviour, so that histology-specific treatment protocols have been increasingly implemented in recent years. This is also the case for the different subtypes of liposarcoma - the myxoid/round cell variant, as well as dedifferentiated and pleomorphic liposarcoma. This article will present published data and the authors' experience with the various systemic treatment options. both in first line and in subsequent lines of treatment, as well as a brief overview of experimental treatment approaches.
