Pathological complete response to pembrolizumab in recurrent retroperitoneal dedifferentiated liposarcoma with high tumor mutational burden: a case report. (PubMed, World J Surg Oncol)
This is the first reported case of recurrent retroperitoneal DDLPS with high TMB achieving pCR to pembrolizumab. High TMB and high TAM density in the tumor microenvironment may be predictive biomarkers for the response to ICIs in DDLPS.

A novel disulfidptosis-related lncRNA signature to predict prognosis and immune response of cervical cancer. (PubMed, Medicine (Baltimore))
The low-risk group exhibited improved survival outcomes and increased sensitivity to immunotherapy, whereas the high-risk group showed heightened sensitivity to to bexarotene, bicalutamide, embelin, FH535, and pazopanib. Quantitative PCR results indicated that ILF3-DT and PPP1R14B-AS1 were downregulated in CC tissues, whereas RUSC1-AS1 was upregulated. In conclusion, we developed a novel prognostic risk signature based on 9 disulfidptosis-related lncRNAs, which may serve as an independent predictor of immunotherapy response and chemotherapy sensitivity in CC.

Chemotherapy Strategies and Their Efficacy for Mesenchymal Chondrosarcoma. (PubMed, Curr Oncol)
Trabectedin demonstrates low disease control rate in translocation-related sarcomas, including few MCS cases. Anti-angiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitors, such as apatinib and pazopanib, demonstrate activity in chondrosarcoma, but MCS-specific data are lacking. IDH1 inhibition benefits conventional subtypes rather than MCS. Early immunotherapy experience is limited, but pathway-directed strategies targeting BCL2 and PI3K-mTOR warrant evaluation.

Clinical, immunological, and genomic findings of atezolizumab in advanced alveolar soft part sarcoma: A phase II trial (ALBERT trial/NCCH1907). (PubMed, Eur J Cancer)
Atezolizumab was effective in some patients, regardless of prior treatment with pazopanib. Responders had significant PD-1 expressing CD8+ T cell infiltration before immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. The degree of CD8+PD1+ T cells may be a potential biomarker for predicting responses to atezolizumab.

Incidence, prevalence and treatment of patients with Epithelioid Haemangioendothelioma (EHE) in Canada: A Canadian Sarcoma Research and Clinical Collaboration (CanSaRCC) and Multi-pronged Canadian Research in Epithelioid Haemangioendothelioma (PRO_CARE EHE) study. (PubMed, Eur J Cancer)
This is the largest series of EHE patients describing sequential systemic therapies. The role of systemic therapy in EHE in improving survival remains unclear and prospective studies with comparative arms are needed to add further insight into this chronic disease.

Clinical outcomes and genomic alterations in patients with metastatic malignant phyllodes tumors. (PubMed, Jpn J Clin Oncol)
AI therapy is useful for advanced or recurrent MPTs. The observed clinical benefit of pazopanib in a patient with FGFR1 N546K-mutated MPT suggests that FGFR1 kinase domain mutations may be a relevant factor in responsiveness of FGFR1-targeted therapy. Further data accumulation is warranted.

Solitary fibrous tumour: histological discoveries, behavioural aspects, risk assessment and therapeutical approaches. (PubMed, Ther Adv Med Oncol)
Conventional chemotherapy may be used, with doxorubicin and dacarbazine being active though yielding poor responses. Other active drugs with currently ongoing studies in SFT are eribulin and trabectedin...An area of recent investigation is immunotherapy, with an ongoing randomized trial comparing nivolumab + ipilimumab versus pazopanib in advanced rare soft tissue sarcomas, including SFTs. Despite its rarity and therefore the difficulty in performing prospective randomized trials with a large number of patients, many promising results in perioperative (radiotherapy) or in the metastatic (medical therapy) setting have been obtained. This review overviews the main characteristics and provides the current knowledge on standard therapies.

Novel Therapeutic Approaches for Cutaneous Angiosarcoma, Particularly Focusing on Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
Taxane-based chemotherapy, particularly paclitaxel, has demonstrated clinical activity and remains a standard option. Molecular targeted agents such as pazopanib have yielded modest efficacy... While systemic therapies for CAS remain limited in efficacy, ICIs-particularly in combination with TKIs-represent a promising avenue. Future trials should emphasize biomarker-driven, CAS-specific strategies to improve clinical outcomes in this challenging malignancy.

Durable Response to Pazopanib (Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor) in a Patient With EWSR1::CREM Gene Fusion Positive Intra-Abdominal Unclassified Epithelioid Sarcoma. (PubMed, Genes Chromosomes Cancer)
However, the patient developed omental relapses while on imatinib and progressive disease persisted despite change to sunitinib. Pazopanib as a single agent was then initiated, and patients have continued to respond for the past 7 months. We highlight the significant immunophenotypic heterogeneity in these tumors and perform an extensive review of the literature of this specific entity and broader group of EWSR1::CREM/FUS fusion positive tumors ranging from quasi-benign to malignant and finally we underscore the therapeutic utility of pazopanib as a single agent in this rare group of aggressive sarcomas.
