Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 8 to 85 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients displayed with thigh soft tissue sarcoma with only cortical contact of the adjacent bone and underwent limb-salvage surgery were included for the study. Patients could be divided into two groups: 1) sub-periosteal tumor excision group and 2) composite bone resection and reconstruction group.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients developed thigh soft tissue sarcoma, defined as lesion located below the plane of the lesser trochanter and above the plane of the femoral condyle.
  • received primary limb-salvage surgery at our center.
  • soft tissue sarcoma with only cortical contact of the adjacent bone based on preoperative imaging
  • minimum of 2-year follow up

Who cannot join

  • diagnosis was well differentiated liposarcoma
  • patients with metastatic disease at the time of presentation
  • soft tissue sarcoma displayed frank osseous invasion (eg. medullary canal invasion)

About this study

Official title: Does Composite Bone Resection for Soft Tissue Sarcoma With Cortical Contact Result in Better Local Control and Survival Compared to Sub-periosteal Dissection?

the purpose of this study is to assess whether bone resection for thigh soft tissue sarcoma with cortical involvement of the adjacent bone result in better local control and survival compared to sub-periosteal dissection. Investigators also aim to find out the prognostic factors for clinical outcomes in this group of patients.

Being tested
bone resection, subperiosteal excision

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • bone resectionProcedure or surgery

    patients underwent soft tissue sarcoma excision together with bone resection following either biological or endoprosthesis reconstruction

  • subperiosteal excisionProcedure or surgery

    patients underwent sub-periosteal tumor excision combining bone and soft tissue ablation without bone excision

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. survival

    Whether patient die or not

    Measured: patients were checked every three months for the initial two years after surgery and every 6 months for the subsequent three years. After 5 years, patients will be checked once every year until patients died or were loss to follow up.

  2. recurrence

    whether patients developed local recurrence

    Measured: patients were checked every three months for the initial two years after surgery and every 6 months for the subsequent three years. After 5 years, patients will be checked once every year until patients died or were oss to follow up.

  3. metastasis

    whether patients developed metastasis

    Measured: patients were checked every three months for the initial two years after surgery and every 6 months for the subsequent three years. After 5 years, patients will be checked once every year until they died or were loss to follow up.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. functional outcomes

    The Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) questionnaire for the lower extremity is composed of six items including pain, function, emotional acceptance, use of any external support, walking ability, and gait alteration. Each item is rated in a scale of 0-5. The total score ranges from 0 to 30, with higher scores indicating better function.

    Measured: MSTS scores were measured every 6 months for the first two years after surgery. After that, MSTS outcomes were measured once every year until patients died or were loss to follow up.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Soft Tissue Sarcoma and Cortical Contact, run by Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 19 Mar 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

survival (time frame: patients were checked every three months for the initial two years after surgery and every 6 months for the subsequent three years. After 5 years, patients will be checked once every year until patients died or were loss to follow up.). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 19 Mar 2024.
