Electrically enhanced drug delivery for the treatment of soft tissue sarcoma

Abstract

In this study, a single electrochemotherapy treatment had a strong cytoreductive effect on small tumors that lasted approximately 35 days, until recurrences began. Multiple treatment of small and large tumors resulted in high complete response rates that lasted at least 100 days after treatment. This indicates the feasibility of electrochemotherapy as a modality of limb-preserving treatment for patients with sarcoma of the extremities.
