Today is the penultimate episode in our ASCO 2024 Odyssey. Michael and Josh have neglected sarcoma to date, but today is the day@ Sarcoma is rare, where clinician experience becomes paramount to treatment options and outcomes. They develop in soft tissues and bones and vary in origin, including deep soft tissue, bone, nerves, etc. Today, they explore three trials. The first is paclitaxel and avelumab in inoperable angiosarcoma, the second is perioperative radiotherapy with adjuvant immunotherapy in high-risk soft tissue sarcoma, and the final is a good old head-to-head trial of perioperative chemotherapy in soft tissue sarcoma (adriamycin plus ifosfamide vs gemcitabine and docetaxel.
