Standardization of Evaluation Method and Prognostic Significance of Histological Response to Preoperative Chemotherapy in High-grade Non-round Cell Soft Tissue Sarcomas: a Report From the Central Pathology Review for the Japan Clinical Oncology Group Study JCOG0304
Abstract:PurposePreoperative chemotherapy is widely applied to high-grade localized soft tissue sarcomas (STSs); however, the prognostic significance of histological response to chemotherapy remains controversial. This study aimed to standardize evaluation method of histological response to chemotherapy with high agreement score among pathologists, and to establish a cut-off value closely related to prognosis. MethodsUsing data and specimens from the patients who had registered in the Japan Clinical Oncology Group stud… Show more
