Amol Akhade: Doxorubicin and Trabectedin followed by Trabectedin maintenance for leiomyosarcoma

Amol Akhade shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Doxorubicin plus Trabectedin followed by Trabectedin maintenance for leiomyosarcoma shows OS benifit vs doxorubicin alone .

Median OS Improved from 24 months to 33 months .

See the post progression therapy for both arms ( 36 % of control arm got Trabectedin on progression)

See the results of previous trials in same setting. ( gemcitabine plus docetaxel had median OS of 26.9 months).”
