Randomized Comparison of Pazopanib and Doxorubicin as First-Line Treatment in Patients With Metastatic Soft Tissue Sarcoma Age 60 Years or Older: Results of a German Intergroup Study

Abstract

Pazopanib was noninferior to doxorubicin, rendering pazopanib a putative therapeutic option in the first-line treatment of STS in patients age 60 years or older. The distinct adverse event profile may be used to counsel patients and tailor therapy to individual needs.
