Background
Alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) is a rare mesenchymal tumor characterized by ASPL‐TFE3 translocation. Apart from complete surgical resection, there is no standard management strategy.
Procedure
The clinical data of 69 children and young adults less than 30 years old with ASPS diagnosed from 1980–2014 were retrospectively collected from four major institutions.
Results
Median age...
Background
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common pediatric bone cancer. Despite advances in treatment regimens, the survival rate remains 60–70%. There is an urgent need to identify prognostic biomarkers, so that targeted therapies can be developed to improve the outcome.
Procedure
Our laboratory has previously identified that circulating serum amyloid A (SAA) and CXC chemokine ligand 4 (CXCL4)...
BACKGROUND
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common malignant pediatric bone tumor. The identification of novel biomarkers for early prognostication will facilitate risk‐based stratification and therapy. This study investigated the significance of circulating cytokines/chemokines for predicting the prognosis at the initial diagnosis.
METHODS
Luminex assays were used to measure cytokine/chemokine concentrations...
