Ewing sarcoma: Similar survival rates with intensified dose regimen of VDC/IE .
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Dose-intensified compared with standard chemotherapy for nonmetastatic Ewing sarcoma family of tumors: a Children's Oncology Group Study
J Clin Oncol. 2009 May 20;27(15):2536-41. doi: 10.1200/JCO.2008.19.1478. Epub 2009 Apr 6478 patients under the age of 30, diagnosed with non-metastatic ESFT (or the Ewing sarcoma family of tumours), were randomized to either a standard or intensified dose regimen of vincristine, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide (VDC) along with ifosfamide and etoposide (IE) to assess the 5-year event-free and overall survival rates between groups. Results indicated that there was no significant difference between groups in the 5-year event-free and overall survival rates or the incidence of secondary leukemia. However, the frequency of solid secondary tumours was higher in the intensified group, and half of these cases had not been treated with radiation.
