About this study

Official title: Status of Surgical Resection and Histologic Subtype as Predictors of Local Recurrence in Retroperitoneal Liposarcoma - Case Series

Soft tissue sarcomas are rare malignant tumors. Liposarcoma constitute the most frequent histological subtype of retroperitoneal sarcoma. The prognosis of soft tissue sarcomas depend on clinical and histologic characteristics. Objective: Evaluate variables that may be related to overall survival and local recurrence free survival in patients with retroperitoneal liposarcoma. Methods: retrospective analysis of medical records of 60 patients attended from 1997 to 2017, who underwent surgical resection of retroperitoneal liposarcoma.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Liposarcoma of Soft Tissue and Surgical Procedure, Unspecified, run by University of Sao Paulo General Hospital at 1 site in Brazil.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jun 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Brazil. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall survival rate (time frame: 60 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05428579, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Jun 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
