stereotactic body raiotherapy: Neoadjuvant stereotactic body radiation therapy followed by radical surgery for soft tissue sarcoma.
Study summary
Currently, the effectiveness and safety of preoperative hypo-fractionated radiotherapy in treating extremity soft tissue sarcomas remain inconclusive, warranting further investigation. Optimizing the neoadjuvant radiotherapy approach, including fractionation schedules and the interval between radiotherapy and surgery, is crucial to enhancing clinical efficacy while ensuring safety. This study proposes a multicenter, prospective, single-arm clinical trial utilizing preoperative SBRT for patients with high-grade extremity STS, tumors larger than 5 cm, or cases where achieving safe surgical margins is challenging due to involvement of surrounding blood vessels or nerves. The trial aims to preliminarily assess the impact of preoperative SBRT followed by radical surgery on surgical safety, quality of life, and tumor control in these patients.
