Summary

This is a nonrandomized Phase II pilot protocol to determine the feasibility, toxicity and disease control (local control, overall and progression-free survival) using hypofractionated preoperative radiation therapy in patients with primary localized soft tissue sarcomas (STS).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • ≥ 18 years of age
  • Core needle biopsy obtained
  • Pathologic confirmation of primary soft tissue sarcoma of the upper or lower extremity or chest-wall.
  • Stage I-III Soft Tissue Sarcoma of the extremity without evidence of metastatic disease
  • Medically operable
  • No prior radiotherapy to primary site or adjacent site that results in overlapping radiation fields.
  • MRI obtained of the affected extremity or chest-wall
  • CT chest acquired to assess distant disease
  • Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) 60 or above
  • Informed consent obtained prior to study entry

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients who have metastatic disease
  • Pregnant women
  • Women of childbearing potential and male participants must practice adequate contraception.
  • Disease pathology other than sarcoma subtypes
  • Patients with a history of metastatic disease from a primary other than sarcoma
  • Patients who cannot undergo MRI as part of pre-treatment or treatment planning process
  • STS of non-extremity or chest-wall regions
  • Tumor size ≥ 20 cm maximal dimension
