Abstract
BACKGROUND Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are a highly heterogeneous group of rare malignant solid tumors. Non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas (NRSTS) comprise all STS except rhabdomyosarcoma. In patients with advanced local or metastatic disease, autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) applied after high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) is a planned rescue therapy for HDCT-related severe hematologic toxicity. The rationale for this update is to determine whether any randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have been conducted and to clarify whether HDCT followed by autologous HSCT has a survival advantage. OBJECTIVES To assess the effectiveness and safety of HDCT followed by autologous HSCT for all stages of non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas (NRSTS) in children and adults. SEARCH METHODS For this update we modified the search strategy to improve the precision and reduce the number of irrelevant hits. All studies included in the original review were considered for re-evaluation in the update. We searched the electronic databases CENTRAL (2012, Issue 11) in The Cochrane Library , MEDLINE and EMBASE (05 December 2012) from their inception using the newly developed search strategy. Online trials registers and reference lists of systematic reviews were searched. SELECTION CRITERIA Terms representing STS and autologous HSCT were required in the title or abstract. In studies with aggregated data, participants with NRSTS and autologous HSCT had to constitute at least 80% of the data. Single-arm studies were included in addition to studies with a control arm because the number of comparative studies was expected to be very low. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two review authors independently extracted study data. Some studies identified in the original review were re-examined and found not to meet the inclusion criteria and were excluded in this update. For studies with no comparator group, we synthesized the results for studies reporting aggregate data and conducted a pooled analysis of individual participant data using the Kaplan-Meyer method. The primary outcomes were overall survival (OS) and treatment-related mortality (TRM). MAIN RESULTS The selection process was carried out from the start of the search dates for the update. We included 57 studies, from 260 full text articles screened, reporting on 275 participants that were allocated to HDCT followed by autologous HSCT. All studies were not comparable due to various subtypes. We identified a single comparative study, an RCT comparing HDCT followed by autologous HSCT versus standard chemotherapy (SDCT). The overall survival (OS) at three years was 32.7% versus 49.4% with a hazard ratio (HR) of 1.26 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.70 to 2.29, P value 0.44) and thus not significantly different between the treatment groups. In a subgroup of patients that had a complete response before treatment, OS was higher in both treatment groups and OS at three years was 42.8% versus 83.9% with a HR of 2.92 (95% CI 1.1 to 7.6, P value 0.028) and thus was statistically significantly better in the SDCT group. We did not identify any other comparative studies. We included six single-arm studies reporting aggregate data of cases; three reported the OS at two years as 20%, 48%, and 51.4%. One other study reported the OS at three years as 40% and one further study reported a median OS of 13 months (range 3 to 19 months). In two of the single-arm studies with aggregate data, subgroup analysis showed a better OS in patients with versus without a complete response before treatment. In a survival analysis of pooled individual data of 80 participants, OS at two years was estimated as 50.6% (95% CI 38.7 to 62.5) and at three years as 36.7% (95% CI 24.4 to 49.0). Data on TRM, secondary neoplasia and severe toxicity grade 3 to 4 after transplantation were sparse. The one included RCT had a low risk of bias and the remaining 56 studies had a high risk of bias. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS A single RCT with a low risk of bias shows that OS after HDCT followed by autologous HSCT is not statistically significantly different from standard-dose chemotherapy. Therefore, HDCT followed by autologous HSCT for patients with NRSTS may not improve the survival of patients and should only be used within controlled trials if ever considered.

In patients with advanced local or metastatic disease, autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) applied after high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) is a planned rescue therapy for HDCT-related severe hematologic toxicity. OBJECTIVES To assess the effectiveness and safety of HDCT followed by autologous HSCT for all stages of soft tissue sarcomas in children and adults. SEARCH STRATEGY We searched the electronic databases CENTRAL (The Cochrane Library 2010, Issue 2), MEDLINE and EMBASE (February 2010). Online trial registers, congress abstracts and reference lists of reviews were searched and expert panels and authors were contacted. SELECTION CRITERIA Terms representing STS and autologous HSCT were required in the title, abstract or keywords. In studies with aggregated data, participants with NRSTS and autologous HSCT had to constitute at least 80% of the data. Comparative non-randomized studies were included because randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were not expected. Case series and case reports were considered for an additional descriptive analysis. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Study data were recorded by two review authors independently. For studies with no comparator group, we synthesised results for studies reporting aggregate data and conducted a pooled analysis of individual participant data using the Kaplan-Meyer method. The primary outcomes were overall survival (OS) and treatment-related mortality (TRM). MAIN RESULTS We included 54 studies, from 467 full texts articles screened (11.5%), reporting on 177 participants that received HSCT and 69 participants that received standard care. Only one study reported comparative data. In the one comparative study, OS at two years after HSCT was estimated as statistically significantly higher (62.3%) compared with participants that received standard care (23.2%). In a single-arm study, the OS two years after HSCT was reported as 20%. In a pooled analysis of the individual data of 54 participants, OS at two years was estimated as 49% (95% CI 34% to 64%). Data on TRM, secondary neoplasia and severe toxicity grade 3 to 4 after transplantation were sparse. All 54 studies had a high risk of bias. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS Due to a lack of comparative studies, it is unclear whether participants with NRSTS have improved survival from autologous HSCT following HDCT. Owing to this current gap in knowledge, at present HDCT and autologous HSCT for NRSTS should only be used within controlled trials.

Abstract
Hematopoietic SCT (HSCT) has become a curative therapeutic strategy for several malignant and nonmalignant diseases. We report the comprehensive results of the first 10 years of experience in HSCT from the two major BMT units in Lebanon: Makassed University Hospital and the American University of Beirut Medical Center. The median and the 5-year overall survival (OS) were 97 months and 58%, respectively, for the 84 patients who received allogeneic HSCT, and 60 months and 50%, respectively, for the 228 patients who received autologous BMT. The results for myeloablative allogeneic transplantation were as follows: AML (n=28, 5-year OS 58%, 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) 48%), CML (n=9, 5-year OS 66%, 5-year DFS 52%), ALL (n=13, 2-year OS 10%, 2-year DFS 10%), thalassemia (n=10, 5-year transfusion-free survival 67%). The results for autologous HSCT were as follows: diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in relapse (n=37, 5-year OS 68%, 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) 65%), Hodgkin's lymphoma (n=55, 5-year OS 55%, 5-year PFS 36%), and first-line multiple myeloma (n=71, 5-year OS 53%, 5-year PFS 24%). For allogeneic transplanted patients, the cumulative TRM was 23% and the incidence of acute GVHD was 23%. For autografted patients, TRM was 2.6%. These results indicate that despite the relatively low socioeconomic status of the Lebanese population, both allogeneic and autologous HSCT are feasible with outcomes similar to developed countries.

Abstract
Experimental evidence suggests that anthracyclines, widely used in cancer chemotherapy, may impair kidney function. We assessed kidney function by serum creatinine, urinary N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase activity indices (NAGi) and microalbuminuria (MA) in 160 serum and urine samples obtained from 66 children with cancer. The effect of dexrazoxane was analyzed in 6 children on dexrazoxane supportive therapy in conjunction with daunorubicin (DNR) treatment, as compared with 6 children not receiving this agent. NAGi was significantly (p<0.05) elevated after treatment by DNR, doxorubicin, epirubicin (EPI) and idarubicin (IDA). MA proved to be a less sensitive indicator of kidney damage than NAGi. DNR resulted in a progressive deterioration of proximal tubular function as determined by linear regression analysis. The mean NAGi in the dexrazoxanetreated group was significantly (p<0.005) lower than in children not receiving dexrazoxane prior to DNR treatment. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that DNR, EPI and IDA induced an acute renal tubular damage similar to known tubulotoxic agents as cisplatin, carboplatin, cyclophosphamide and ifosfamide. The damage was clinically mild and only a minor proportion of patients can be expected to develop long-lasting tubulopathy with negative impact on the quality of life.

Abstract
Cytotoxic drug treatment of neuroblastoma often leads to the development of drug resistance and may be associated with increased malignancy. To study the effects of long-term cytotoxic treatment on malignant properties of tumor cells, we established 2 neuroblastoma cell sublines resistant to vincristine (VCR) and doxorubicin (DOX). Both established cell lines (UKF-NB-2(r)VCR(20) and UKF-NB-2(r)DOX(100)) were highly resistant to VCR, DOX and vice-versa but retained their sensitivity to cisplatin. UKF-NB-2(r)VCR(20) and UKF-NB-2(r)DOX(100) expressed significant amounts of P-glycoprotein, while parental cells were P-glycoprotein negative. GD2 expression was upregulated, whereas NCAM expression was decreased in both resistant cells. Spectral karyotype (SKY) analysis revealed complex aberrant karyotypes in all cell lines and additional acquired karyotype changes in both resistant cells. All cell lines harbored high levels of N-myc amplification. Compared to parental cells, UKF-NB-2(r)VCR(20) and UKF-NB-2(r)DOX(100) exhibited more than 2-fold increase in clonal growth in vitro, accelerated adhesion and transendothelial penetration and higher tumorigenicity in vivo. We conclude that development of drug resistance and acquisition of certain karyotypic alterations is associated with an increase of additional malignant properties that may contribute to the poor prognosis in advanced forms of NB. The 2 novel neuroblastoma cell sublines also provide useful models for the study of drug resistance in aggressive forms of neuroblastoma.

Abstract
The use of high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous HCT and the use of allogeneic HCT in children and adolescents with high-risk ALL, AML, and NBL has successfully improved outcomes. For other diseases, however, the role of HCT in treatment remains a subject of further research. The availability of HCT was significantly expanded by developing alternative graft sources that currently include BM, peripheral blood, and UCB from autologous and allogeneic related or unrelated donors. Progress in autologous HCT has been achieved by the identification of more effective and less toxic preparative regimens and by ex vivo purging of stem cell products. In allogeneic HCT, graft-versus-leukemia or graft-versus-tumor effects are being exploited increasingly to lower relapse rates. In addition, immunomodulation to promote tolerance, as well as allogeneic antitumor reactions have been achieved by antibody therapy, cytokine therapy, or cell-based immunotherapy. Future improvements are likely, as evidenced by promising preliminary results in the development of stem cell collection techniques, in vitro stem cell expansion, and purging techniques of stem cell grafts. The development of less intensive or nonmyeloablative preparative regimens may further reduce regimen-related morbidity and mortality Specific immunotherapy may facilitate tolerance induction in mismatched allogeneic HCT and support allogeneic HCT in the setting of donor-host HLA disparity. Ultimately, advances in cytokine therapy, tumor-specific vaccines, and gene therapy may decrease or even eradicate recurrence of the malignant disease after HCT.

Abstract
Ewing tumours, i.e. Ewing's sarcoma and malignant peripheral neuroectodermal tumours, are the second most common primary malignant tumours of bone in childhood and adolescence, with an annual incidence rate in Caucasians of 3 per 1 million children <15 years of age. Histopathologically small blue round cell tumours, Ewing tumours show a typical chromosomal rearrangement in >95% of cases linking the EWS gene on chromosome 22q12 to a member of the ETS transcription gene family, most commonly to Fli-1 on 11q24. This fusion contributes to the malignant potential of Ewing tumour cells, indeed antisense oligonucleotides may prevent tumour growth in vitro. After open biopsy, and histological and possibly molecular biological confirmation of the diagnosis, treatment consists of several months of multidrug cytostatic therapy and local therapy. Both surgery and radiotherapy may control local disease, but without consequent cytostatic chemotherapy all patients will eventually succumb to distant metastases. With the use of alkylating agents including doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide and/or ifosfamide, and other cytostatic drugs such as actinomycin D (dactinomycin), vincristine and etoposide, long-term survival can be achieved in >50% of patients with localised disease. Patients with clinically detectable metastases at diagnosis, patients not responding to therapy and patients with disease relapse have a significantly poorer prognosis. Maximum supportive care and local therapy managed by an experienced physician are required in all patients, and inclusion of high-risk patients in phase I and II studies is warranted. Hence, treatment of patients with Ewing tumours should be performed in experienced centres only and preferably within controlled clinical trials.

Abstract
PURPOSE Attempts to improve outcomes of patients with Ewing's sarcoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor (ES/PNET) metastatic to bone/bone marrow (BM) have focused on chemotherapy dose intensification strategies. We now present results achieved with that approach, as carried out at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) and as reported in the literature. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty-one unselected MSKCC patients with newly diagnosed ES/PNET metastatic to bone/BM received the "P6" protocol which includes cycles of cyclophosphamide (4.2 g/m(2))/doxorubicin (75 mg/m(2))/vincristine and cycles of ifosfamide (9 g/m(2))/etoposide (500 mg/m(2)). Patients in complete/very good partial remission (CR/VGPR) after P6 received myeloablative therapy with either total-body irradiation (TBI) (hyperfractionated 15 Gy)/melphalan (180 mg/m(2)) or thiotepa (900 mg/m(2))/carboplatin (1,500 mg/m(2)). We reviewed the literature. RESULTS Only one MSKCC patient became a long-term event-free survivor; all but one relapse was in a distant site. Initial responses to P6 were CR/VGPR in 19 patients, but eight of them plus two others developed PD while receiving or shortly after completing P6. Eight patients were treated with TBI/melphalan: four relapsed 2 to 7 months after transplantation; two died early of toxicity; one died of pulmonary failure 17 months after transplantation (no evidence of ES/PNET); and one remains in CR at more than 7 years. The three patients treated with thiotepa/carboplatin relapsed 3 to 4 months after transplantation. All reports on large series of unselected patients with ES/PNET metastatic to bone/BM showed similarly unsatisfactory results. Poor outcome was seen with use of active agents for ES/PNET-cyclophosphamide, ifosfamide, doxorubicin, dactinomycin, vincristine, etoposide - at standard dosages for prolonged periods of time and at higher dosages in intensive regimens for short or prolonged periods of time. No improvements in event-free survival rates occurred with successive cooperative group or large single-institutional studies that used increasingly aggressive chemotherapeutic approaches. Inclusion of ifosfamide with or without etoposide made no difference nor did consolidation of remission with myeloablative chemoradiotherapy. Secondary leukemia emerged as a major risk with dose-intensive regimens. CONCLUSION The MSKCC experience and findings reported in the literature suggest that dose-intensive use of the chemotherapy agents with established activity against ES/PNET is reaching its efficacy and toxicity limits. A major impact on prognosis awaits the development of entirely novel therapies.

Abstract
Disseminated neuroblastoma diseases are still indicated by a poor outcome despite treatment regimens including radiation therapy and high-dose chemotherapy with stem cell rescue. Therefore, new substances and treatment regimens are of interest. Aphidicolin (APH), a tetracyclic diterpene antibiotic produced by Cephalosporium aphidicola, has a specific toxicity for neuroblastoma cells. Furthermore, it was shown to enhance the effects of X-ray radiation and chemotherapy on malignant cells. To find new substances, 20 APH derivatives were tested for their anti-neuroblastoma efficacy in vitro in UKF-NB-2 cells. Five derivatives had antitumoral activity in neuroblastoma cells. A relationship between the structure and the antitumoral efficacy showed that the hydroxyl groups at C-3 and C-18 are essential for the antitumoral effects. Furthermore, antitumoral effects of APH in combination with doxorubicin and vincristine, both part of commonly used treatment regimens for disseminated neuroblastoma diseases, were tested in the neuroblastoma cell line UKF-NB-2. APH was found to act synergistically with vincristine and synergistically to additive with doxorubicin depending on the molecular ratio of the substances in combination. This may offer the chance to use APH and its derivatives as additional tools in the treatment of neuroblastomas.
