Gene therapy for sarcoma
Soft tissue sarcomas are mesenchymal tumors which respond poorly to systemic therapy. Recent studies suggest a higher response rate with an increased doxorubicin dosage. However, this was parallel with a profound hematotoxicity in 75% of patients. Transfer of the human multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1)...

| Summary: | Soft tissue sarcomas are mesenchymal tumors which respond poorly to systemic therapy. Recent studies suggest a higher response rate with an increased doxorubicin dosage. However, this was parallel with a profound hematotoxicity in 75% of patients. Transfer of the human multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) gene to normal hematopoietic stem cells and transplantation may significantly reduce the hematotoxicity of anthracyclin-based chemotherapy. |
