2 Synovial sarcoma Synovial sarcoma accounts for approximately 8% of all soft tissue sarcomas. Higher incidence in adolescents and young adults (>50% between 10 and 40 years). HELIOS KLinikum Berlin-Buch / Sarcoma Center Berlin-BrandenburgP. Reichardt

5 Synovial sarcoma Synovial sarcoma accounts for approximately 8% of all soft tissue sarcomas. Higher incidence in adolescents and young adults (>50% between 10 and 40 years). Typically affects the extremities (70%), case reports in multiple primary sites. Displays a variable degree of epithelial differentiation. Specific chromosomal translocation t(X;18)(p11;q11) that leads to formation of a SS18-SSX fusion gene. HELIOS KLinikum Berlin-Buch / Sarcoma Center Berlin-BrandenburgP. Reichardt

10 Synovial sarcoma: Options after doxo/ifo Trabectedin: Retrospective pooled analysis including 45 SS patients: In other retrospective analysis of 61 SS patients, trabectedin showed an activity similar to that in leiomyosarcoma and liposarcoma, with a significant percentage of patients experiencing prolonged disease control (25% of cases therapy was continued for ≥5 m; Clinical benefit rate: 50%). Median PFS was 3.0 months and 6-month PFS rate of 22%. Median OS was 13.9 months, with 2 years survival rate of 28%. Median OS Synovial: 13,9 months Le Cesne A, et al.

11 In the pazopanib registration study, 38 synovial sarcoma patients were included: Synovial sarcoma: Options after doxo/ifo Deeks E, et al. Drugs. 2012;72(16): ; FDA Review NDA /S-010 Votrient ® (pazopanib) Pazopanib significantly prolonged progression-free survival over placebo in this population (4.1 vs 1,0 months; HR=0.39). However, there was a lower survival with pazopanib vs placebo (8.7 vs 21.6 months) for this subtype. HELIOS KLinikum Berlin-Buch / Sarcoma Center Berlin-BrandenburgP. Reichardt
12 Synovial sarcoma – adjuvant therapy P. ReichardtHELIOS KLinikum Berlin-Buch / Sarcoma Center Berlin-Brandenburg SS seems to be a subtype which benefits from adjuvant chemotherapy: -In a retrospective analysis of 271 SS patients, among patients with macroscopically resected disease, those who received adjuvant chemotherapy had more favorable outcomes than those who did not receive chemotherapy (5-year MFS 60 vs. 48%).
