The diffuse-type tenosynovial giant cell tumor (dt-TGCT) patient journey: a prospective multicenter study

Abstract: Background Tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) is a rare, locally aggressive neoplasm arising from the synovium of joints, bursae, and tendon sheaths affecting small and large joints. It represents a wide spectrum ranging from minimally symptomatic to massively debilitating. Most findings to date are mainly from small, retrospective case series, and thus the morbidity and actual impact of this rare disease remain to be elucidated. This study prospectively explores the management of TGCT in ter… Show more

“…OncoTargets and Therapy 2022:15 54 systemic treatment was indicated. 7 However, the percentage of severe cases (instances of extra-and intra-articular disease with magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]-confiirmed involvement of multiple muscles or ligaments) 13 in this group was similar to that in the other cohorts, suggesting that clinical grade of the disease does not necessarily correlate with level of impairment. Thus, disease severity may not be a sufficient indicator of optimal treatment modality on its own, but rather should be considered in the context of the patient's symptomatology at presentation.…”

“…These patterns were demonstrated in the TGCT Observational Platform Project (TOPP), a recent multinational, multicenter prospective observational study in which the "watchful monitoring" approach was assigned primarily to patients with diffuse TGCT who had undergone only surgery prior to enrollment. 7 At baseline, the watchful monitoring cohort in TOPP had lower pain and interference scores, lower frequency of painkiller use, and higher quality of life than patients for whom surgical or https://doi.org/10.2147/OTT.S345878…”
