Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The goal of this pilot study is to learn about patients with newly diagnosed osteosarcoma of an extremity, and whether surgically removing the tumor prior to the administration of any chemotherapy will improve functional outcomes. In order to learn about the patient's experience, the study team will administer questionnaires to the patient and surgeon at various timepoints to assess recovery and the function of the extremity.

Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Change in Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) score from Historical Controls
- timeFrame
- approximately 1 year
- description
- Modified age-based PROMIS measures will be used to assess HRQoL changes (PROMIS 25 Parent Proxy will be used for ages 5-7; PROMIS 25 for 8-17; PROMIS 29+2 for 18+) PROMIS 25 (and PROMIS 25 Parent Proxy) contain six, 4-item short forms for domains: physical function mobility, anxiety, depressive symptoms, fatigue, peer relationships, pain interference; along with a pain intensity item. Scores for each domain range from 1-5 (pain intensity 0-10). Responses to individual items are coded to values and summed to generate a total raw score. Total raw scores are converted/rescaled into a standardized T-score for each participant with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation (SD) of 10. Higher PROMIS T-scores represent more of the concept being measured PROMIS 29+2 is similar to PROMIS 25 with the exception of a social roles/activities domain in place of peer relationships, and also includes sleep disturbance and cognitive function domains. Scores are determined as described for PROMIS 25
