Brief summary
Epithelioid sarcoma is a rare soft tissue sarcoma characterized by SMARCB1/INI1 deficiency. Much attention has been paid to the selective EZH2 inhibitor tazemetostat, where other systemic treatments are generally ignored. To explore alternative treatment options, we studied the effects of irinotecan-based chemotherapy in a series of epithelioid sarcoma patients.
Interventions
a 90-minute intravenous infusion of irinotecan at a dose of 50 mg/m2/d for 5 days every 3 weeks, vincristine given at a dose of 1.4 mg/m2 (maximum 2 mg) on days 1 and 8, and oral administration of Anlotinib once daily on days 1-14 within a 21-day cycle.
