Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Prospective phase II study. Patients will be submitted to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (cT) and hypo fractionated radiotherapy (hRT) following by surgery. The remain viable cells will be analyzed and the patients whithin less than 30% will receive more 3 cycles of cT. All patients have deep high grade soft tissue sarcoma of extremity.

- Doxorubicin, Ifosfamide, radiotherapy
- description
- Doxorubicin 75mg/m2 (cycle 1,2 and 3), ifosfamide 9 g/m2 (cycle 1 and 3) and radiotherapy: 25 Gy / 5 x 500 cGy/day, beginning at Cycle2/Day1. The surgery will performed after 4-6 weeks from cycle 3. The remain viable cells in surgical specimen will be analyzed and if it accounts less than 30% the patient will receive more 3 cycles of cT. A boost of RT is indicated if margins are considered R1.
