This report has been verified

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.
SFOP OS94: a randomised trial comparing preoperative high-dose methotrexate plus doxorubicin to high-dose methotrexate plus etoposide and ifosfamide in osteosarcoma patients
Eur J Cancer. 2007 Mar;43(4):752-61. Epub 2007 Jan 30234 patients with nonmetastatic osteosarcoma were randomized to preoperative chemotherapy of high-dose methotrexate with either doxorubicin or with etoposide and ifosfamide. After a median of 77-month follow-up, patients who had received the etoposide-ifosfamide regimen exhibited a larger percentage of good histologic response. Three- and 5-year overall and event-free survival rates were significantly better in those who had a good histologic response. Furthermore, although the event-free survival was slightly greater in the etoposide-ifosamide group compared to the doxorubicin group, this difference was not found to be statistically significant.
