摘要: Soft tissue sarcomas are a group of potentially devastating malignancies. Despite multidisciplinary treatment combining surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, the overall prognosis for sarcoma patients remains poor. Very few chemotherapeutic agents with meaningful efficacy: toxicity ratios available, development novel therapeutics will be critical if this currently unacceptable is to improved. Much exciting progress in genetic profiling molecular identification constituent oncogenes protein products has recently occurred, which ultimately enable targeted therapies. In chapter, we discuss major advances cytogenetics importance signatures diagnosis treatment. an attempt create better treatments cancers several strategies have evolved administer therapeutic genes that inactivate oncogenes, restore tumor-suppressor genes, enhance native immune response. We explore some promising initial data regarding gene delivery systems, such as isolated limb perfusion may useful technique delivering growth-suppressing constructs into soft sarcomas.
