This report has been verified
by one or more authors of the
original publication.
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.
Randomized controlled trial of interval-compressed chemotherapy for the treatment of localized Ewing sarcoma: a report from the Children's Oncology Group
J Clin Oncol. 2012 Nov 20;30(33):4148-54. doi: 10.1200/JCO.2011.41.5703. Epub 2012 Oct 22568 patients with localized Ewing sarcoma were randomized to receive alternating cycles of vincristine - doxorubicin - cyclophosphamide and ifosfamide-etoposide chemotherapy either every 14 or 21 days. Between cycles patients were administered filgrastim and at week 13 all patients received primary tumour treatment. The purpose of this study was to determine whether interval compression was effective in improving the prognosis of patients. At 5.5 years, results indicated that chemotherapy administered every 14 days was more effective than every 21 days, as it significantly increased the event-free survival rate without increasing toxicity.
