Abstract
No standard treatment has been established for most rare cancers. Here, we report a clinical trial of a biweekly WT1 tri-peptide-based vaccine for recurrent or advanced rare cancers. Due to the insufficient number of patients available for a traditional clinical trial, the trial was designed for rare cancers expressing shared target molecule WT1. The recruitment criteria included WT1-expressing tumors as well as HLA-A*24:02 or 02:01. The primary endpoints were immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody (Ab) production against the WT1-235 cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) epitope and delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) skin reactions to targeted WT1 CTL epitopes. The secondary endpoints were safety and clinical efficacy. Forty-five patients received WT1 Trio, and 25 (55.6%) completed the 3-month protocol treatment. WT1-235 IgG Ab was positive in 88.0% of patients treated with WT1 Trio at 3 months, significantly higher than 62.5% of the weekly WT1-235 CTL peptide vaccine. The DTH positivity rate in WT1 Trio was 62.9%, which was not significantly different from 60.7% in the WT1-235 CTL peptide vaccine. The WT1 Trio safety was confirmed without severe treatment-related adverse events, except grade 3 myasthenia gravis-like symptoms observed in a patient with thymic cancer. Fifteen (33.3%) patients achieved stable disease after 3 months of treatment. In conclusion, the biweekly WT1 Trio vaccine containing the WT1-332 helper T lymphocyte peptide induced more robust immune responses targeting WT1 than the weekly WT1-235 CTL peptide vaccine. Therefore, WT1-targeted immunotherapy may be a potential therapeutic strategy for rare cancers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND These clinical practice guidelines are intended to provide recommendations based on the best evidence obtained to date on key issues in clinical practice to improve the prognosis, diagnostic and therapeutic processes for patients with soft tissue tumors. METHODS The Guidelines Development Committee and Systematic Review Committee were composed of a multidisciplinary team of specialists who play an important role in soft tissue tumor care. Clinical questions (CQs) were determined by choosing key decision-making points based on Algorithms for the diagnosis and treatment of soft tissue tumors. The guidelines were developed according to the "Medical Information Network Distribution Service (Minds) Handbook for Clinical Practice Guideline Development 2014" and "Minds Manual for Clinical Practice Guideline Development 2017." Recommendation strength was rated on two levels and the strength of evidence was rated on four levels. The recommendations were decided based on agreement by 70% or more voters. RESULTS Twenty-two CQs were chosen by the Guidelines Development Committee. The Systematic Review Committee reviewed the evidence concerning each CQ, a clinical value judgment was added by experts, and the text of each recommendation was determined. CONCLUSION We established 22 CQs and recommendations for key decision-making points in the diagnosis and treatment of soft tissue tumors according to the Minds Clinical Practice Guideline development methods. We hope that these guidelines will assist the decision-making of all medical staff engaged in the treatment and diagnosis of soft tissue tumors, and eventually lead to improved soft tissue tumor care in the country.

Abstract
The Wilms' tumor gene WT1 is highly expressed in various malignancies and may be a common target antigen for cancer immunotherapy. In our group, peptide-based cancer vaccines targeting WT1 CTL epitopes were developed as an immunotherapy for these malignancies. In the present study, WT1 epitope-specific immune responses were analyzed in 31 patients with advanced sarcoma with human leukocyte antigen-A*24:02- and WT1-expressing tumors who received the WT1-235 peptide vaccine as monotherapy. The serum levels of IgG and IgM antibodies against the target epitope WT1-235 and the non-target epitopes WT1-332 and WT1-271 were measured using ELISA. IgM antibodies against WT1-235, WT1-332 and WT1-271 were detected in three (9.6%), four (12.9%) and 20 patients (64.5%), respectively, prior to vaccine administration, indicating immune recognition of the WT1 antigen prior to administering the vaccine. Of 15 patients who had completed the 3-month treatment protocol, WT1-235 IgG was positive in five (33.3%) patients. An enzyme-linked immunospot assay revealed that WT1-235 epitope-specific IL-10 production/secretion in peripheral blood mononuclear cells declined in the first month of vaccine administration in all three patients with positivity for WT1-235 IgM at the start of the vaccine. Furthermore, positivity for both WT1-235 and WT1-271 IgM antibodies at the start of treatment was associated with unfavorable tumor control at 3 months after vaccine administration. These results suggested that WT1 epitope-specific IgG and IgM antibodies may be utilized as immune-monitoring markers for WT1 peptide cancer vaccine immunotherapy. The trials were entered in the University hospital Medical Information Network (UMIN) Clinical Trials Registry (https://www.umin.ac.jp/ctr; no. UMIN000002001 on May 24, 2009 and no. UMIN000015997 on December 20, 2014).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Metastasectomy is often the local treatment for pulmonary metastases arising from osteosarcoma or soft tissue sarcoma. However, there have been few investigations on the outcomes of patients who undergo this procedure. In this study, we identified prognostic factors in patients with pulmonary metastases arising from osteosarcoma and soft tissue sarcoma to determine more appropriate eligibility criteria for metastasectomy. METHODS We retrospectively examined 37 patients who underwent metastasectomy of pulmonary nodules arising from osteosarcomas or soft tissue sarcomas at our institute between 2005 and 2020. Overall and recurrence-free survival intervals were determined using univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS A tumor doubling time > 1 month and a primary tumor histological type of osteosarcoma were independent predictors of longer overall survival on multivariate analysis (hazard ratios: 3.618 and 2.979, p = 0.00986 and 0.0373, respectively). Moreover, a > 1-month tumor doubling time and > 10-cm diameter of the primary tumor were independent predictors of longer recurrence-free survival (hazard ratios: 3.293 and 2.67, p = 0.0121 and 0.0134, respectively). Patients who underwent repeat pulmonary metastasectomy after complete resection of sarcoma-derived pulmonary metastases had significantly longer overall survival than those who did not (median: 5.91 years vs. 0.81 years, p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Tumor doubling time is a significant predictor of clinical outcomes in patients who undergo resection of pulmonary metastases originating from sarcomas. The surgical indication for this procedure should be decided carefully, particularly for patients with metastatic lesion doubling times ≤ 1 month.

Abstract
We elucidated clinicopathological characteristics of giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) in Japan, and significant clinicopathological factors for predicting local recurrence. Clinicopathological profiles of 213 patients with GCTB (100 male, 113 female) involving extra‐craniofacial bones were retrieved. Pathological slides obtained at the initial surgery were reviewed. Fourteen pathological and five clinical features were statistically analyzed to disclose prognostic significance. Patient age ranged from 12–80 years (Average 38.7). Long bones were most frequently affected (86.4%), especially around the knee (62.9%). Histological features are basically similar to those previously reported. Within a follow‐up period (24–316 months, average 106.1 months), the local recurrence rate is 29.1%. Metastasis has occurred in 9 patients. Cox regression analysis of representative clinicopathological features shows that younger age, higher mitotic count, smaller zones of stromal hemorrhage, considerable vascular invasion and absence of ischemic necrosis are significant predictors for local recurrence. Initial operative method (curettage) is a significant risk factor in univariate analysis but not by multivariate analysis (P = 0.053). Denosumab administration increases risk but not significantly (P = 0.053). Histone 3.3 G34W immunopositivity is not significant for predicting local recurrence.

Abstract
Background osteosarcoma is a rare, primary malignant bone tumour with limited available treatments for advanced or recurrent disease, resulting in a poor prognosis for patients. TAS-115 is a novel tyrosine kinase inhibitor under investigation in a phase I study in patients with solid tumours. We report data of osteosarcoma patients in the expansion cohort of this ongoing study. Patients and methods an analysis of this multicentre, open-label study was performed 6 months after the final patient was enrolled, and included patients aged ≥15 years, with unresectable or recurrent osteosarcoma, and who had refractory to standard therapy or for whom no standard therapy was available. TAS-115 650 mg/day was orally administered in a 5 days on/2 days off schedule. Results a total of 20 patients with osteosarcoma were enrolled. The most common adverse drug reactions (ADRs) were neutrophil count decreased (75%), aspartate aminotransferase increased (50%), and platelet count decreased (50%); 85% of patients had grade ≥ 3 ADRs. Long-term disease control (>1 year) with TAS-115 was achieved in three patients. The best overall response was stable disease (50%); no patient achieved a complete or partial response. Median progression-free survival was 3 months; 4-month and 12-month progression-free rates were 42% and 31%, respectively. Conclusion the safety and tolerability of TAS-115 and long-term disease stability for patients with unresectable or recurrent osteosarcoma were confirmed in this study, suggesting that TAS-115 is a promising novel therapy for advanced osteosarcoma patients. Trial registration number: JapicCTI-132333 (registered on November 8, 2013).

Abstract
Previous studies have not clearly identified a prognostic factor for desmoid tumours (DT). Whole-exome sequencing (WES) and/or RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) were performed in 64 cases of DT to investigate the molecular profiles in combination with the clinicopathological characteristics. CTNNB1 mutations with specific hotspots were identified in 56 cases (87.5%). A copy number loss in chromosome 6 (chr6) was identified in 14 cases (21.9%). Clustering based on the mRNA expression profiles was predictive of the patients' prognoses. The risk score generated by the expression of a three-gene set (IFI6, LGMN, and CKLF) was a strong prognostic marker for recurrence-free survival (RFS) in our cohort. In risk groups stratified by the expression of IFI6, the hazard ratio for recurrence-free survival in the high-risk group relative to the low-risk group was 12.12 (95% confidence interval: 1.56-94.2; p = 8.0 × 106). In conclusion, CTNNB1 mutations and a chr6 copy number loss are likely the causative mutations underlying the tumorigenesis of DT while the gene expression profiles may help to differentiate patients who would be good candidates for wait-and-see management and those who might benefit from additional systemic or radiation therapies.

Abstract
Background The outcomes of unplanned surgery for bone sarcomas have not been frequently discussed. However, it is important to recognize patterns, treatment, and clinical outcomes of unplanned surgeries for patients with bone sarcomas. This multicenter study aimed to characterize the clinical outcomes of patients with bone sarcomas who underwent unplanned surgeries. Patients and Methods Data of 43 patients with bone sarcomas who underwent unplanned surgery between 2006 and 2017 were obtained from 23 hospitals in Japan. These included 18 cases of osteosarcoma, 9 of Ewing sarcoma, 8 of chondrosarcoma, and 6 of undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma. The study included 28 men and 15 women, with a mean age of 46 years. The mean follow-up duration was 59 months. Results The main primary tumor sites were the femur (n = 19), spine (n = 6), pelvis (n = 5), tibia (n = 3), and humerus (n = 3). The primary diagnoses were benign bone tumor (n = 24), trauma (n = 7), bone metastasis (n = 5), osteomyelitis (n = 4), degeneration (n=2), and unknown (n = 1). As unplanned surgeries, curettage, with or without bone graft, was performed in 26 patients; internal fixation was performed in 7; spinal surgery in 5; arthroplasty in 4; and arthroscopy in one. Thirty-eight patients received additional standard treatments. Thirty-four of these patients underwent surgical tumor resections, including amputation (n = 10), and the remaining 4 received radiotherapy or carbon ion radiotherapy as additional standard treatments. The 5-year disease-specific survival (DSS) rates in patients with osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, and chondrosarcoma were 65.5%, 58.3%, and 72.9%, respectively. Twelve (27.9%) patients developed local recurrences (LR); among the total 43 patients studied, the 5-year DSS rates were significantly worse for those who developed LR compared to those who did not (p = 0.03). The 5-year DSS rates in patients with and without LR were 44% and 73.8%, respectively. Conclusion We recommend that patients who have undergone unplanned surgery be administered standard treatment, including the option of amputation because herein, LR was shown to be a risk factor for decreased DSS.

Abstract
Angiosarcoma (AS) is a rare and aggressive tumor with high rates of local recurrence and distant metastasis. Stewart-Treves syndrome (STS) is defined as AS arising in the setting of chronic lymphedema, and is extremely uncommon in the lower abdominal wall. Eribulin mesylate (eribulin) is a non-taxane microtubule inhibitor that has been approved in Japan for treating soft tissue sarcoma. The current study reports the case of a 76 year-old woman with STS in the lower abdominal wall who exhibited an excellent response to eribulin. Having undergone surgery and postoperative radiation therapy (RT) for cervical cancer 12 years earlier, the patient presented with a mass in her left lower abdominal wall, where chronic lymphedema had developed. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed multiple enhancing nodules in the left lower abdominal wall and edema of the subcutaneous tissues in the whole lower abdomen. A histologic analysis of the specimens revealed AS, and she was diagnosed as STS. A total of 3 cycles of combination chemotherapy with gemcitabine and docetaxel were administered, but the patient discontinued treatment owing to severe adverse events. RT was performed for the tumor, but multiple reddish nodules appeared in the whole lower abdominal wall 3 months later. At this point, eribulin administration was offered. After 4 cycles of treatment, there was a clear reduction in the size of the nodules. All lesions were stable, no new lesions had developed, and the side effects of treatment were minor over the course of 1 year. The results reveal that eribulin may serve as a potential therapeutic option for the treatment of STS.

Abstract
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) often does not respond well to chemotherapy and develops against a background of NF1. The purpose of our study was to examine the efficacy of pazopanib against MPNST. Our study was designed as a physician-initiated phase II clinical trial in patients with advanced MPNST. Patients were registered from 11 large hospitals. The primary endpoint was set to clarify the clinical benefit rate (CBR) at 12 weeks according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST). Progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and the CBR based on modified Choi evaluation at week 12 were set as secondary endpoints along with treatment-related safety. The study enrolled 12 patients. Median age was 49 years. Seven had Grade 2 and five Grade 3 according to the FNCLCC evaluation. Median follow-up period was 10.6 months. CBR at 12 weeks was both 50.0% (RECIST and Choi). The median PFS was 5.4 months for both RECIST and Choi, and the median OS was 10.6 months. Of special interest, the median PFS was 2.9 months for patients with FNCLCC Grade 2 and 10.2 months for Grade 3 (both RECIST and Choi). Grade 4 adverse events of neutropenia and lipase elevation were noted in one patient each. The results of this pazopanib therapy were generally better than those of any of the other single molecular targeted therapies reported previously. Although accumulation of more cases remains necessary, we conclude pazopanib treatment for MPNST to be a safe and promising treatment after doxorubicin-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
The number of studies on bone metastasis (BM) from gastric cancer (GC) is currently limited. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the characteristics, skeletal-related events (SREs) and prognosis of GC in patients with BMs. Data from 60 patients with BMs from GC were retrospectively retrieved and patient-, tumor- and BM-related characteristics were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were analyzed using the univariate log-rank test. Multivariate analyses were conducted using the Cox proportional hazards model. The median patient age was 63.5 years (range, 26-83 years). Visceral or brain metastases were observed at BM diagnosis in 61.7% of the patients. Multiple BMs were detected in 83.3% and SREs occurred in 76.7% of the patients. The median overall survival (OS) after BM diagnosis and SRE occurrence was 9 months (range, 0-43 months) and 5 months (range, 0-36 months), respectively. On multivariate analysis, poor Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (P=0.030), the administration of chemotherapy prior to BM diagnosis (P<0.001) and no chemotherapy after BM diagnosis (P=0.002) were significant prognostic factors for unfavorable OS, whereas the non-use of bone-modifying agents (BMAs) was the only independent prognostic factor for poor SRE-free survival (SRS; P=0.022). Among patients without SREs at BM diagnosis, the median SRS duration was 7 months (range, 0-43 months). In conclusion, chemotherapy may confer a survival benefit in GC patients with BMs. In addition, the prognosis for GC patients with BMs presenting with SREs is poor, but treatment with BMAs may prevent or delay the development of SREs.

Abstract
Alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS), epithelioid sarcoma (ES), and clear cell sarcoma (CCS) are known to be chemoresistant tumors. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of pazopanib on these chemoresistant tumors. This study is designed as a single‐arm, multicenter, investigator‐initiated phase II trial. Patient enrollment was undertaken between July 2016 and August 2018 at 10 hospitals participating in the Japanese Musculoskeletal Oncology Group. The primary end‐point is the CBR (CBR, including complete or partial response and stable disease) at 12 weeks after treatment with pazopanib according to RECIST. Eight patients were enrolled within the period. The histological subtypes were 5 ASPS, 2 ES, and 1 CCS. The median follow‐up period was 22.2 (range, 4.9‐24.9) months. All patients initially received pazopanib 800 mg once daily. The CBRs were 87.5% (7 of 8) and 75.0% (6 of 8) according to RECIST and Choi criteria at 12 weeks after pazopanib treatment, respectively. The CBRs at 12 weeks according to RECIST were 80.0%, 100.0%, and 100.0% in ASPS, ES, and CCS, respectively. Partial response was observed in 1 ASPS according to RECIST and 3 ASPS and 1 ES according to Choi criteria at 12 weeks after pazopanib treatment. This study documented antitumor activity of pazopanib, especially in ASPS. These results support the frontline use of pazopanib for ASPS. Prospective data collection is desired using both RECIST and Choi criteria for these rare chemoresistant tumors.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the anti-anaphylactic and anti-allergic potentials of saracatinib, a Src family kinase inhibitor that was already shown to be safe in clinical trials when it was used as an anti-cancer drug. Using in vitro mast cell models, we found that saracatinib inhibited the degranulation response and cytokine production in RBL2H3 cells that were stimulated with IgE and antigen without affecting cell viability. Phosphorylation of Lyn, Akt, a PI3K substrate, and MAPKs including ERK, JNK, and p38, as well as the intracellular Ca2+ increase induced by this stimulation were also suppressed by saracatinib. This drug also inhibited symptoms in our established anaphylaxis mouse model, anaphylaxis-dependent spotted distribution of immune complex in skin (ASDIS). The intravenous injection of the mixture of IgE and antigen induced acute spotted distribution of immune complex in skin in hairless HR-1 mice, and its inhibition by intradermal injection of saracatinib was observed. Moreover, toluidine blue-stained skin sections indicated that the degranulation ratio of dermal mast cells was reduced in saracatinib-treated skin compared with vehicle-treated skin. Because only a few signaling inhibitors are used as anti-anaphylaxis and anti-allergic drugs, these results indicated the valuable suggestion that saracatinib and the Src family kinase inhibitors are good candidates for anti-anaphylaxis and anti-allergic drugs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES It is challenging to know at the first which patients with desmoid fibromatosis (DF) are better suited to conservative or aggressive treatment. To investigate whether the low signal intensity bundles on T1- or T2-weighted images (WI), termed the "black fiber sign (BFS)," can predict non-progressive behavior in the conservative approach. METHODS This retrospective study included 59 patients with primary DF managed with wait-and-see approach from 2005 to 2018 and serial MR images were analyzed. Three observers blinded to the patient information verified the presence or absence of BFS on baseline T1 or T2WI. The likelihood of progression-free survival (PFS) after ascertaining the presence or absence of the BFS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and analyzed with the log-rank test. RESULTS PFS was significantly higher in cases with BFS than without BFS on T1WI (p < 0.01), but there was no significant difference in PFS between cases with and without BFS on T2WI. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards analysis revealed that the absence of BFS on T1WI was a high-risk factor for progression (hazard ratio, 14.9; p < 0.01). Drastic tumor regression was apparent with significantly increased low-signal area in cases with BFS on T1WI. Intra- and interobserver reliabilities of BFS on T1WI were in almost-perfect agreement (κ > 0.8). CONCLUSION Our retrospective observational data support that presence of BFS in baseline MRI may be a predictor for progression-free survival of DF. BFS on T1WI is easily identifiable and can be utilized clinically in patients with DF. KEY POINTS • We proposed a new imaging marker for prediction of desmoid fibromatosis progression. • The absence of black fiber sign predicted a high risk of disease progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to assess the survival, function, radiographic appearance, and modes of failure of extracorporeal irradiated (ECI) autografts in a long-term setting. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 87 patients who were treated for bone and soft tissue tumors using ECI autografts between 1988 and 2009. RESULTS The 56 patients had a minimum follow-up of 10 years, and the median follow-up period was 16.5 years. The reimplantation procedures included 24 osteoarticular grafts, 16 intercalary grafts, 10 autograft-prosthetic composite grafts, and 6 hemicortical grafts. The 15-year graft and event-free survival rates were 76.8% and 47.9%, respectively. Infection and structural failure were the most common reasons for additional surgery. The time for additional surgery was significantly longer in patients with composite grafts (P < .01). The median Musculoskeletal Tumor Society score and the International Society of Limb Salvage score were 80% and 84%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS ECI autografts are a durable option for reconstruction after resection of musculoskeletal tumors and provide good function over more than 15 years. Most graft failures occurred within 5 years of the index surgery. However, composite grafts showed a tendency to fail more than 10 years after the surgery.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma is the most common malignant bone tumor in adolescence and childhood. Metastatic osteosarcoma has a poor prognosis with an overall 5‐year survival rate of approximately 20%. TAS‐115 is a novel multiple receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is currently undergoing clinical trials. Using the mouse highly lung‐metastatic osteosarcoma cell line, LM8, we showed that TAS‐115 suppressed the growth of subcutaneous grafted tumor and lung metastasis of osteosarcoma at least partially through the inhibition of platelet‐derived growth factor receptor alpha, AXL, and Fms‐like tyrosine kinase 3 phosphorylation. We also show that these signaling pathways are activated in various human osteosarcoma cell lines and are involved in proliferation. Our results suggest that TAS‐115 may have potential for development into a novel treatment for metastatic osteosarcoma.

Abstract
Background Chondroblastoma (CB) is a rare locally aggressive bone tumor that commonly occurs in the epiphysis or apophysis of long bones. Although surgical treatment of CB carries potential risk for physeal or articular cartilage damage, risk factors for joint degeneration have not been well described. In addition, we have mainly used synthetic bone substitute (SBS) to fill the bone defect after intralesional curettage as treatment for CB. This study thus aimed to evaluate the incidence of and risk factors for adjacent-joint radiographic degeneration after SBS treatment for CB. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 48 patients treated for CB at our institutions between 1996 and 2017. Clinical data, radiographic images, treatments, and local recurrence were analyzed. Results We identified 40 patients [29 males and 11 females with a mean age of 19 years (range, 8–35 years)] who received SBS to fill the defect after curettage with a minimum follow-up of 1 year. The mean follow-up period was 71 months (range, 13–239 months). A total of 8 patients (20%) developed local recurrence. Radiographic analysis showed that 5 patients (16.7%) developed radiographic joint degeneration. Joint degeneration was significantly associated with the affected joint (p = 0.004). Conclusions Curettage and SBS filling had been found to be a reasonable treatment method for CB, which commonly occurs in the epiphysis or apophysis. Radiographic joint degeneration was not uncommon after CB treatment, especially in the talus and proximal humerus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary osteosarcoma in elderly patients are rare malignant tumors. Its optimal treatment has not yet been determined. METHODS This retrospective study included 104 patients aged >50 years with resectable, non-metastatic osteosarcoma treated by the members of the Bone and Soft Tissue Tumor Study Group of the Japan Clinical Oncology Group. The effects of adjuvant chemotherapy were estimated by comparing outcomes in patients who received surgery plus chemotherapy with those who underwent surgery alone. RESULTS Median age at presentation was 59 years. Neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy was administered to 83 (79.8%) patients. Patients who underwent surgery plus chemotherapy and those who underwent surgery alone had 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of 68.6% and 71.7%, respectively (p = 0.780), and 5-year relapse free survival (RFS) rates of 48.2% and 43.6%, respectively (p = 0.64). Univariate analysis showed that resection with wide margins was significantly correlated with better prognosis. CONCLUSIONS The addition of chemotherapy to surgery did not improve OS or RFS in patients aged >50 years with resectable, non-metastatic osteosarcoma. Surgery with wide margins was only significantly prognostic of improved survival. The effect of chemotherapy in elderly osteosarcoma patients was unclear.

Abstract
Background Subperiosteal hematoma of the iliac bone is reported as a rare disorder that specifically occurs in young patients after obvious trauma. This report presents seven cases of male adolescent athletes with subperiosteal iliac hematoma without blunt trauma that was identified as an incidental radiolucent lesion on the iliac bone mimicking neoplasm. The purpose of this report is to describe clinical features and radiological findings of silent subperiosteal hematoma of the iliac bone. Subjects and methods We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data and radiological appearance of 7 patients who presented with subperiosteal hematoma of iliac bone. Results All seven patients had no obvious trauma and no serious symptoms. All patients were middle school or high school male students who regularly participated in vigorous sports activity; five soccer players, one baseball catcher, and one basketball player. The X-ray showed radiolucent lesion on the iliac bone. Lens-shaped mass without involvement of psoas muscle with ghost native cortex sign and overlying periosteal calcification on CT scan was characteristic radiological finding on subperiosteal iliac hematoma. Conclusion Subperiosteal iliac hematomas can be caused by vigorous sports activity in adolescence. This condition is not always associated with serious symptom. It can be identified as a radiolucent lesion mimicking a neoplasm.

Abstract
Malignant peripheral nerve-sheath tumors (MPNSTs) are rare malignancies that are often observed in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). However, the occurrence of MPNST associated with mosaic localized NF1 is extremely rare. Previous reports have revealed that MPNST was associated with mosaic localized NF1 in only three patients who were >40 years of age. The present report details a 16-year-old man who presented with pain and a 3 cm mass on the medial side of the right knee. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a circumscribed soft tissue tumor located in the subcutaneous tissue. His previous doctor believed that it was benign and conducted a marginal resection. However, postoperative histology results demonstrated spindle cell sarcoma, following which the patient was referred to The Osaka International Cancer Institute. Localized café-au-lait spots were identified in the affected leg, which inferred that the patient had NF1-related MPNST. A wide resection was performed to completely resect the residual tumor; however, a definitive histological diagnosis was challenging due to the small residual tumor. Hence, the genomic mutations of NF1 in the regional café-au-lait spots were analyzed. The result revealed an NF1 microdeletion and a consistently limited expression of NF1 in the tumor sample. Finally, the patient was diagnosed with MPNST with mosaic localized NF1. Local recurrence and distant metastasis were not observed 1.5 years after surgery. In conclusion, the present report presented MPNST in an adolescent patient with mosaic localized NF1. The occurrence of MPNSTs correlated with mosaic localized NF1 is extremely rare. However, it is of high-grade malignancy and therefore, its clinical features should be considered by orthopedists and pathologists.

Abstract
TAS-115 is a novel MET, VEGFR, FMS and PDGFR inhibitor, developed to improve the continuity of drug administration with a relatively short half-life. We assessed its tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and pharmacodynamics in patients with solid tumors. This open-label, dose-escalation phase I study of TAS-115 consisted of three parts: part 1 (TAS-115 was administered orally once daily [SID]); part 2 and an expansion part (SID in a 5 days on/2 days off [5-on/2-off] schedule for 21 days per cycle). In part 1 (200-800 mg SID administered to 21 patients), systemic exposure after single administration increased almost dose-proportionally. Three dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were observed in three patients: grade 3 rash (650 mg), thrombocytopenia with bleeding, and rash (800 mg). The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was determined as 650 mg SID. In part 2, the 5-on/2-off schedule was evaluated at the MTD to improve treatment exposure. No DLTs were observed and no patients required treatment interruption in cycle 1. During part 2 and the expansion part (N = 61), grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events were reported in 47 patients, with neutropenia (24.6%), hypophosphatemia (21.3%), anemia, and thrombocytopenia (14.8% each), and leukocytopenia (11.5%) occurring in ≥10% of patients. The best overall response was stable disease in 31 of 82 patients (37.8%). An apparent reduction in fluorodesoxyglucose-uptake and bone scan index was observed in some patients. TAS-115 was generally well tolerated, with manageable toxicities and recommended phase II dose was estimated as 650 mg SID, 5-on/2-off. Furthermore, promising antitumor activity was observed.

Abstract
Clear cell sarcoma (CCS) is a rare but chemotherapy-resistant and often fatal high-grade soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) characterized by melanocytic differentiation under control of microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF). Eribulin mesilate (eribulin) is a mechanistically unique microtubule inhibitor commonly used for STS treatment, particularly liposarcoma and leiomyosarcoma. In this study, we examined the antitumor efficacy of eribulin on four human CCS cell lines and two mouse xenograft models. Eribulin inhibited CCS cell proliferation by inducing cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis, shrunk CCS xenograft tumors, and increased tumor vessel density. Eribulin induced MITF protein upregulation and stimulated tumor cell melanocytic differentiation through ERK1/2 inactivation (a MITF negative regulator) in vitro and in vivo Moreover, tumor reoxygenation, probably caused by eribulin-induced vascular remodeling, attenuated cell growth and inhibited ERK1/2 activity, thereby upregulating MITF expression and promoting melanocytic differentiation. Finally, downregulation of MITF protein levels modestly debilitated the antiproliferative effect of eribulin on CCS cells. Taken together, eribulin suppresses CCS through inhibition of cell proliferation and promotion of tumor differentiation by acting both directly on tumor cells and indirectly through tumor reoxygenation.

Abstract
There have been few reports on bone metastases (BMs) from esophageal cancer (EC). The aim of the present study was to investigate the clinicopathological features and prognostic factors in patients with EC with BMs. The present study retrospectively collected data from 58 patients with BMs from EC who were treated at our institution between 2007 and 2016. Patient, tumor and BM-associated characteristics were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were constructed and analyzed using the univariate log-rank test. Multivariate analyses were conducted using the Cox proportional hazards model. The median patient age was 67 years (range, 39–84 years). Multiple BMs were detected in 38 patients (65.5%) and 52 patients (89.7%) exhibited osteolytic BMs. Skeletal-related events (SREs) occurred in 53 patients (91.4%). The one-year overall survival (OS) was 25.3%, and the median OS was 5 months (range, 0–54). Univariate analyses revealed that performance status, visceral or brain metastasis, serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), C-reactive protein, albumin level, and receipt of chemotherapy following BM diagnosis were significantly associated with OS. Multivariate analyses of these factors demonstrated that higher serum CEA levels and no chemotherapy were significant risk factors for poor OS. Multiple osteolytic BMs are frequently observed in patients with EC with BMs, and SREs commonly occur. The prognoses of patients with EC with BMs are poor, but chemotherapy administration following the BM diagnosis should confer a survival benefit.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Soft-tissue sarcomas (STS) are rare malignant tumors those are resistant to chemotherapy. We have previously reported the 3-year follow-up result on the efficacy of perioperative chemotherapy with doxorubicin (DXR) and ifosfamide (IFM) for high-risk STS of the extremities (JCOG0304). In the present study, we analyzed the 10-year follow-up results of JCOG0304. METHODS Patients with operable, high-risk STS (T2bN0M0, AJCC 6th edition) of the extremities were treated with 3 courses of preoperative and 2 courses of postoperative chemotherapy, which consisted of 60 mg/m2 of DXR plus 10 g/m2 of IFM over a 3-week interval. The primary study endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) estimated by Kaplan-Meier methods. Prognostic factors were evaluated by univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS A total of 72 patients were enrolled between March 2004 and September 2008, with 70 of these patients being eligible. The median follow-up period was 10.0 years for all eligible patients. Local recurrence and distant metastasis were observed in 5 and 19 patients, respectively. The 10-year PFS was 65.7% (95% CI: 53.4-75.5%) with no PFS events being detected during the last 5 years of follow-up. The 10-year overall survival was 78.1% (95% CI: 66.3-86.2%). Secondary malignancy was detected in 6 patients. The subgroup analysis demonstrated that there was significant difference in survival with regard to primary tumor size. CONCLUSIONS Only a few long-term results of clinical trials for perioperative chemotherapy treatment of STS have been reported. Our results demonstrate that the 10-year outcome of JCOG0304 for patients with operable, high-risk STS of the extremities was stable and remained favorable during the last 5 years of follow-up. TRIAL REGISTRATION This trial was registered at the UMIN Clinical Trials Registry as C000000096 on August 30, 2005.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extraskeletal osteosarcoma (ESOS) is an extremely rare soft tissue sarcoma. Their prognosis remains poor. Our purposes were to identify the effective chemotherapeutic regimen for ESOS. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 16 patients with ESOS treated at the Osaka University Orthopaedic Oncology Group between 1992 and 2012. We extracted the clinical data on patients. Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test were used for survival analyses. RESULTS Median age of the patients was 61.5 years (range 25-79 years). Wide local excision was performed for 11 patients and 9 patients were treated combined with chemotherapy. The 5-year disease-specific survival (DSS) rate was 53.9%. The 5-year DSS rates for patients treated with adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemotherapy or not were 66.7% or 25%, respectively (p = 0.0215). Furthermore, the 5-year DSS rates for patients treated with adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemotherapy consisting of doxorubicin and ifosfamide and those treated with other regimens were 100% or 40%, respectively (p = 0.0327). CONCLUSION The present study demonstrated that adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemotherapy, especially consisting of doxorubicin and ifosfamide, was potentially efficacious for ESOS. Further prospective study using this multimodality treatment approach to patients with ESOS should be strongly warranted.

Abstract
Synovial sarcoma (SS) is considered to be a chemosensitive, soft tissue sarcoma. Therefore, neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant chemotherapy (N/AC) is used for the treatment of high-risk SS patients. However, the role of N/AC remains controversial. The present study aimed to review the clinical outcomes of surgically treated localized SS and investigate the effects of N/AC with long-term observation. The clinical outcomes of 54 patients with surgically treated localized SS were retrospectively analyzed. The median patient age was 42 years (range, 8-81 years), and the median follow-up period was 94 months for survivors (range, 7-220 months). A total of 38 patients (70%) received chemotherapy. Of these, 32 (59%) patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy, 33 (61%) received adjuvant chemotherapy, and 27 (50%) received neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy. Fourteen patients (26%) received adjuvant radiotherapy. Three patients (6%) had local recurrence and 13 patients (24%) developed distant metastasis. The overall survival (OS) rates at 5 and 10 years were 87 and 84%, respectively. N/AC did not improve survival. In conclusion, we found satisfactory long-term OS among patients with a high utilization rate of N/AC. Further study should be necessary to evaluate which population of SS would benefit from N/AC.

Abstract
e22533 Background: STS are rare malignant tumors and relatively resistant against chemotherapy. We have previously reported 3-year follow-up on the efficacy results of perioperative chemotherapy with DXR and IFM for STS in the extremities (JCOG0304) in ASCO 2011 (abstract ID:#10078). In the present report, we analyzed 10-year follow-up results of JCOG0304. Methods: Patients with operable, FNCLCC grade 2/3 STS (T2bN0M0, AJCC 6th edition) in the extremities were treated with 3 courses of preoperative and 2 courses of postoperative chemotherapy consisted of DXR 60 mg/m2plus IFM 10 g/m2in 3-week interval. Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Prognostic factors were evaluated by log-rank test. Results: A total of 72 patients were enrolled between March 2004 and September 2008, and 70 patients were eligible. Median follow-up period was 10.0 years for all eligible cases. The local recurrence and distant metastasis were observed in 5 and 19 patients, respectively. Ten-year progression-free survival (PFS) was 65.7% (95% CI, 53.4%-75.5%) with no PFS event within last 5-year of follow-up. Ten-year overall survival (OS) was 78.1% (95% CI, 66.3%-86.2%). Subgroup analysis demonstrated no significant difference in PFS and OS regarding age, sex, histological grade, and histology. Secondary malignancy occurred in 6 patients. Conclusions: Only a few long-term results of clinical trials of perioperative chemotherapy for STS have been reported. Our results demonstrated that the 10-year outcome of JCOG0304 for the patients with operable, high-grade STS in the extremities was stable and remained favorable. Clinical trial information: C000000096.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies have described the characteristics and prognostic factors of elderly patients with osteosarcoma. We retrospectively investigated clinico-pathological features and prognostic factors in osteosarcoma patients > 40 years old. METHODS Patients with high-grade osteosarcoma > 40 years old who were treated at our institutions from 2000 to 2016 were recruited for this study. Information on patient, tumour, and treatment-related factors was collected and statistically analyzed. The median follow-up was 26.5 months (range, 5-139 months) for all patients. RESULTS Fifty patients (30 males and 20 females) were included. The median age at diagnosis was 59.5 years (range, 41-81 years). The primary lesions were found in the limbs in 32 patients, trunk in 12, and craniofacial bones in six. Primary and secondary osteosarcoma occurred in 41 and 9 patients, respectively. Eight patients exhibited initial distant metastasis. Definitive surgery and chemotherapy were performed in 39 patients each. The rate of good responders after neoadjuvant chemotherapy was 38%. The five year overall survival (OS) rates for all patients and those without distant metastasis at diagnosis were 44.5% and 51.1%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that definitive surgery was the only significant prognostic factor in non-metastatic patients. The five year OS and disease-free survival (DFS) rates for non-metastatic patients who received definitive surgery were 64.3% and 60%, respectively. Among these patients, neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant chemotherapy significantly improved both OS and DFS. CONCLUSIONS Complete surgical resection and intensive chemotherapy should be performed for osteosarcoma patients > 40 years old despite distinct clinicopathological characteristics from those of younger patients.

Abstract
Chordoma is a rare tumor that originates from the notochord. Half of chordomas involve the sacral region. Surgery is considered to be the standard treatment for sacral chordoma. However, carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT) has recently emerged as a promising treatment for unresectable sacral chordoma. Little is known about the long-term complications of CIRT. We present two cases of rectotumoral fistula formation that occurred >5 years after CIRT for sacral chordoma. We considered two possible explanations for fistula formation: radiation enterocolitis after CIRT might cause formation of the fistula long-term, and tumor regrowth might compress the rectum and cause fistula formation. A biopsy in Case 1 showed that regrowth tumor was post-CIRT. It is important to be aware of the possibility of rectal complications after CIRT, and if found, resection of the rectum should be considered. This is a first report of rectotumoral fistula formation that occurred >5 years after CIRT for sacral chordoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The development of effective chemotherapy regimens and molecular targeting agents are improving the overall survival rates in patients with cancer. However, patients who are non-ambulatory due to metastatic epidural spinal cord compression (MESCC) may be assessed as unable to tolerate chemotherapy secondary to poor performance status. This means that the ambulatory status of patients with cancer might be significant for survival time. METHODS We investigated the functional outcomes and factors influencing overall survival in 31 patients who were non-ambulatory due to MESCC and underwent decompression surgery. The functional outcome was determined by the Frankel grading system. RESULT Twenty-one patients (68%) improved by at least 1 Frankel grade; 17 patients (55%) became ambulatory postoperatively. Most of postoperatively ambulatory patients could undergo postoperative chemotherapy (14/17, 82%). On the other hand, only a few postoperatively non-ambulatory patients could undergo postoperative chemotherapy (2/15, 13%). We observed a complication rate of 35.5% with specific complications including wound infection, pneumonia, and deep vein thrombosis/pulmonary embolus. The median survival duration was 7.0 months. Factors that significantly affected the overall survival in univariate analyses were revised Tokuhashi score (RTS) ≥ 4, postoperative chemotherapy, ambulatory status, and complications (RTS ≥ 4, P < 0.05; postoperative chemotherapy, P < 0.001; ambulatory status, P < 0.001; complications, P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Decompression surgery for patients who are non-ambulatory due to MESCC directly contributes to functional outcomes and may indirectly contribute to overall survival. If non-ambulatory patients who are assessed as unable to tolerate chemotherapy due to poor performance status regain the ability to walk by decompression surgery, they will have a chance to receive postoperative chemotherapy, thereby increasing their chances of prolonging survival. However, postoperative complications may shorten their survival; therefore, we should carefully consider the surgical indications. RTS is useful for judging the surgical indication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are rare malignant tumors. The efficacy of preoperative chemotherapy for STS is evaluated using various tumor size-based radiological response criteria. However, it is still unclear which set of criteria would show the best association with pathological response and survival of the patients with STS. METHODS We compared radiological responses to preoperative chemotherapy for operable STS by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), modified RECIST, World Health Organization criteria, Japanese Orthopaedic Association criteria, and modified Choi criteria and analyzed the association with pathological response and survival using the data from the Japan Clinical Oncology Group (JCOG) study JCOG0304, a phase II clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of perioperative chemotherapy for STS in the extremities. RESULTS Seventy eligible patients in JCOG0304 were analyzed. The results demonstrated that none of the size-based radiological response criteria showed significant association with pathological response to preoperative chemotherapy for STS. The difference between overall survival of the patients assessed as partial response and stable disease/progressive disease by RECIST was not significant (hazard ratio 1.37, p = 0.63), and calculated C-index was 0.50. All other response criteria also could not exhibit significant association between radiological responses and survival. CONCLUSION In the present study, none of the radiological response criteria analyzed demonstrated association of response to preoperative chemotherapy with pathological response or survival of the patients with operable STS. Further prospective investigation is required to develop criteria to evaluate not only tumor shrinkage but biological effects of preoperative chemotherapy for the patients with localized STS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) is an intermediate tumor known to be locally aggressive, but rarely metastasizing. To plan a prospective study of GCTB, we performed a questionnaire survey for institutions participating in the Bone and Soft Tissue Tumor Study Group (BSTTSG) in the Japan Clinical Oncology Group (JCOG) in 2015. METHODS We reviewed 158 consecutive patients with primary GCTB treated with curettage without perioperative denosumab from 2008 to 2010 in Japan. We investigated local and distant recurrence rates after definitive curettage. We also investigated the recurrence rate after treatment with preoperative and/or postoperative denosumab with curettage in recent years. There were 40 patients treated with perioperative denosumab, and the factors affecting recurrence in them were investigated. RESULTS Answers were available from 24 of 30 institutions (80.0%) participating in JCOG BSTTSG. Thirty (19.0%) and 4 (2.5%) of 158 patients developed local and distant recurrence after curettage without perioperative denosumab from 2008 to 2010, respectively. Campanacci grade and embolization before surgery were significantly associated with increasing incidence of local recurrence after curettage (p = 0.034 and p = 0.022, respectively). In patients treated with perioperative desnosumab, 120 mg denosumab was administered subcutaneously for a median 6 (2-41) and 6 (1-14) times in preoperative and postoperative settings, respectively. The recurrence rates were 6 of 21 (28.6%), 2 of 9 (22.2%), and 0 of 10 (0.0%) in the preoperative, postoperative, and both pre- and postoperative denosumab treatment groups, respectively. With all of the preoperative treatments, administration exceeding five times was significantly associated with a decreased incidence of local recurrence after curettage (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The recurrence rate of GCTB was still high after curettage, especially in Campanacci grade III, and improvements in the therapeutic strategy are needed in this cohort. There is a possibility that a sufficient dose of preoperative denosumab can reduce recurrence after curettage. Recently, we have started a clinical trial, JCOG1610, to investigate the efficacy of preoperative denosumab in patients who can be treated with curettage in GCTB.

Abstract
Calcific myonecrosis is a rare soft tissue condition. The first case was reported in 1960, however, the precise pathophysiology of calcific myonecrosis remains unclear. The disease was thought to arise from compartment syndrome within a confined space resulting in necrosis and fibrosis, subsequent repeated intralesional hemorrhage, mass enlargement and calcification. Several previous reports have described calcific myonecrosis, which include the formation of calcific myonecrosis after a prolonged period of post trauma. Notably, calcific myonecrosis has typically been described in the lower legs and characteristic imaging findings have been indicated. Furthermore, surgical intervention carries a high risk of complications. In the present case report 2 cases of calcific myonecrosis that occurred after a prolonged period of time following a traumatic event that impacted the lower leg were reported. CT images revealed disruption of calcified fascia and disease expansion into the outside of the fascia. Previous reports have implied that there is late focal enlargement of calcific myonecrosis following earlier enlargement, which may be caused by herniation through muscle fascia. However, no previous publications have focused on images for evidence of late local enlargement. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report focusing on fascial herniation of calcific myonecrosis using images. Analysis of this feature using images may aid clinicians to differentiate calcific myonecrosis from malignancies.

Abstract
Atypical femoral fractures (AFFs) are recently observed as a complication of long-term bone-modifying agent (BMA; bisphosphonate or denosumab) therapy for bone metastases. We describe the cases of two women diagnosed with breast cancer who developed incomplete AFF associated with BMAs prescribed for bone metastases. Radiographs of their femurs revealed thickening of the lateral subtrochanteric cortex, and tomosynthesis revealed a visible fracture line in the thickened cortex. They were initially treated with conservative management; however, the incomplete fracture resulted in a complete fracture. These cases highlight two major implications. First, symptomatic incomplete AFF associated with BMAs prescribed for bone metastases should be treated with surgical prophylaxis, given the fact that fracture healing is expected to require a longer duration and an incomplete fracture might potentially progress to a complete fracture during long-term conservative management. Second, tomosynthesis is useful in identifying radiolucent fracture lines that are reliable predictors of fracture propagation.

Abstract
Clear cell sarcoma is an aggressive soft tissue sarcoma and highly resistant to conventional chemotherapy and radiation therapy. This devastating disease is defined by EWSR1‐ATF1 fusion gene resulting from chromosomal translocation t(12;22)(q13;q12) and characterized by melanocytic differentiation. A marine‐derived antineoplastic agent, trabectedin, inhibits the growth of myxoid liposarcoma and Ewing sarcoma by causing adipogenic differentiation and neural differentiation, respectively. In this study, we examined the antitumor effects and mechanism of action of trabectedin on human clear cell sarcoma cell lines. We showed that trabectedin decreased the cell proliferation of five clear cell sarcoma cell lines in a dose‐dependent manner in vitro and reduced tumor growth of two mouse xenograft models. Flow cytometry and immunoblot analyses in vitro and immunohistochemical analysis in vivo revealed that trabectedin‐induced G2/M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Furthermore, trabectedin increased the expression of melanocytic differentiation markers along with downregulation of ERK activity in vitro and the rate of melanin‐positive cells in vivo. These results suggest that trabectedin has potent antitumor activity against clear cell sarcoma cells by inducing cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and, in part, by promoting melanocytic differentiation through inactivation of ERK signaling. Our present study indicates that trabectedin is a promising differentiation‐inducing agent for clear cell sarcoma.

Abstract
Background The prognosis of synovial sarcoma (SS), an aggressive soft tissue sarcoma, remains poor. We previously reported that c-MET or platelet-derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα) signalling pathway is related to SS progression based upon the findings of phospho-receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) arrays. TAS-115 is a novel c-MET/ vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-targeting tyrosine kinase inhibitor that has been shown to inhibit multiple RTKs. Here we aimed to investigate the therapeutic potential of TAS-115 against SS. Methods We first evaluated which signalling pathway was relevant to the viability of three human SS cell lines: Yamato-SS, SYO-1 and HS-SY-II. Next, we assessed the anticancer activity and mechanism of action of TAS-115 in these SS cell lines. Finally, we compared the ability of TAS-115 to inhibit c-MET and PDGFRα phosphorylation with that of pazopanib. Results We classified the SS cell lines as c-MET-dependent or PDGFRα-dependent based upon the differences in the signalling pathway relevant for growth and/or survival. We also found that c-MET and PDGFRα were the primary activators of both phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/AKT and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways in c-MET-dependent and PDGFRα-dependent SS cells, respectively. TAS-115 treatment blocked the phosphorylation of PDGFRα as well as that of c-MET and their downstream effectors, leading to marked growth inhibition in both types of SS cell lines in in vitro and in vivo studies. Furthermore, PDGFRα phosphorylation, on at least four representative autophosphorylation sites, was impeded by TAS-115 equivalently to pazopanib. Conclusions These experimental results have demonstrated the significance of c-MET and PDGFRα signalling for growth and/or survival of SS tumours. TAS-115 monotherapy may benefit SS patients whose tumours are dependent upon either c-MET or PDGFRα signalling by functioning as a multiple tyrosine kinase inhibitor to suppress c-MET as well as PDGFRα pathways.

Abstract
Synovial sarcoma (SS) is an aggressive soft tissue sarcoma with a poor prognosis and, thus, novel therapeutic strategies for SS are urgently required. In the present study, we investigated the functional and therapeutic relevance of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/c‐MET signaling in SS. Both HGF and c‐MET were highly expressed in Yamato‐SS cells, resulting in activation of c‐MET and its downstream AKT and extracellular signal‐regulated kinase signaling pathways, whereas c‐MET was expressed but not activated in SYO‐1 or HS‐SY‐II cells. c‐MET‐activated Yamato‐SS cells showed higher anchorage‐independent growth ability and less sensitivity to chemotherapeutic agents than did c‐MET‐inactivated SYO‐1 or HS‐SY‐II cells. INC280, a selective c‐MET inhibitor, inhibited growth of Yamato‐SS cells both in vitro and in vivo but not that of SYO‐1 or HS‐SY‐II cells. INC280 induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, and blocked phosphorylation of c‐MET and its downstream effectors in Yamato‐SS cells. Co‐expression of HGF and c‐MET in SS clinical samples correlated with a poor prognosis in patients with SS. Taken together, activation of HGF/c‐MET signaling in an autocrine fashion leads to an aggressive phenotype in SS and targeting of this signaling exerts superior antitumor effects on c‐MET‐activated SS. HGF/c‐MET expression status is a potential biomarker for identification of SS patients with a worse prognosis who can benefit from c‐MET inhibitors.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Synovial sarcoma is a malignant soft tissue sarcoma which arises near joints. The most frequent metastasis sites of synovial sarcoma are the lungs, lymph nodes, and bone. Pancreatic metastasis is quite rare; only 3 cases have been reported worldwide to date. We herein present the 4th case of pancreatic metastasis from synovial sarcoma. METHODS AND RESULTS A 32-year-old man underwent extended excision of synovial sarcoma in the left pelvis and femur in 2009. In 2013, follow-up contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a 35-mm heterogeneously enhanced mass in the pancreas body. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration of the mass revealed a diffuse proliferation of atypical spindle cells in a fascicular arrangement. Because the histology was quite similar to the resected specimen of synovial sarcoma in 2009, the mass was suspected to be a metastasis from synovial sarcoma. Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with adjuvant adriamycin/ifosfamide chemotherapy was subsequently performed. Synovial sarcoma-specific SS18-SSX1 (synovial sarcoma translocation, chromosome 18-synovial sarcoma X1) or SS18-SSX2 chimera mRNA was detected in the resected specimen, confirming the diagnosis of metastasis from synovial sarcoma. The patient did well for 30 months without recurrence. CONCLUSION This case suggests that pancreatic metastasis from synovial sarcoma can be successfully treated by metastasectomy with adjuvant chemotherapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to report the clinical outcomes for patients with osteoid osteoma (OO) treated by radiofrequency ablation (RFA) using a three-dimensional (3D) navigation system. METHODS We performed RFA using a 3D navigation system on 32 patients with clinically and radiologically diagnosed OO. This study included 25 males and 7 females with a median age of 20 years (range, 10-39 years). The median duration of follow-up was 18 months (range, 1-65 months). We investigated technical specifications, tumor localization, technical success, clinical success, biopsy success, complications, incomplete treatment, and recurrences. RESULTS Eighteen tumors were located in the femur, seven in the tibia, two in the humerus, and one each in the fibula, scapula, patella, lumbar vertebra, and acetabula. All procedures were technically successful, and pain relief was achieved in all patients. However, local recurrence developed in one patient, needing additional RFA. The clinical success rate was 96.8%. Biopsy showed OO in 12 patients (37%). Complications occurred in three patients (9%), two cases of fractures and one of osteomyelitis. CONCLUSIONS A 3D navigation provides real-time imaging and enables us to set the RFA needle in the correct position, particularly in case of OO-aroused complex anatomical structures. Our initial results indicated that radiofrequency ablation using a 3D navigation system is feasible and safe for patients with OO.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The incidence of Ewing sarcoma is lower in non-Caucasian populations, compared with Caucasian populations, for unknown reasons. Most studies from western countries have reported improvement in outcomes following multi-agent chemotherapy, with no difference in outcome between skeletal and extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma. However, there are few studies of Ewing sarcoma in non-Caucasian populations, with especially few comparing outcomes between skeletal and extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma. Thus, the purpose of this study is to determine whether the outcomes and prognostic factors of Ewing sarcoma in the Japanese population are similar to those in Caucasian populations and to determine whether skeletal and extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma have similar outcomes in Japanese patients. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the outcomes of 74 Japanese patients with Ewing sarcoma treated between 1981 and 2011 from the Osaka University Orthopaedic Oncology Group. RESULTS Extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma, tumors in the extremities, localized disease at presentation and diagnosis after 2000 were significantly associated with a favorable outcome. Among patients with localized disease at presentation, a significantly better outcome was observed for those with extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma, those who underwent a VDC/IE based or VAIA chemotherapy protocol, and those who were diagnosed after 2000. In the multivariable analyses, extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma was an independent predictor of increased overall survival among all patients and the subset of patients with localized disease. CONCLUSIONS The outcome of patients with Ewing sarcoma in Japan has improved in the last decade. The outcomes and prognostic factors are similar for Japanese and Caucasian patients, though in this series of Japanese patients, a better prognosis was observed for patients with extraskeletal rather than skeletal Ewing sarcoma.

Abstract
Synovial sarcoma (SS) is an aggressive soft tissue tumour with poor prognosis. Using five human SS cell lines, we examined the cytotoxic effects of trabectedin (ET-743; Yondelis(®)), a novel marine natural product, which was approved in Europe for the treatment of soft tissue sarcomas (STS). The significant growth inhibitory effects were observed in all SS cell lines below nanomolar concentration of trabectedin. Furthermore, trabectedin significantly suppressed the tumour growth in xenograft models. Flow cytometer analysis in vitro and immunohistochemical analysis in vivo revealed its effect of cell cycle inhibition and apoptosis induction. We also examined the expression of ERCC1, 5 and BRCA1 in SS cell lines and clinical samples, and majority of them showed highly trabectedin-sensitive pattern as previously reported in other cancers. Our preclinical data indicated that trabectedin could be a promising therapeutic option for patients with SS.

Abstract
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and postoperative hungry bone syndrome are very rare conditions in adolescents, and may be frequently misdiagnosed as a metastatic bone tumor. However, delay in diagnosis may lead to a fatal preoperative hypercalcemia and postoperative hypocalcemia. PHPT is a differential diagnosis of adolescent hypercalcemia and osteolytic fractures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As there are no reports of studies in patients with pelvic chondrosarcoma treated with carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT), the aim of this study was to evaluate the applicability of CIRT for patients with chondrosarcoma of the pelvis. METHODS The medical records of 31 patients with chondrosarcoma of the pelvis treated either by surgical resection or by CIRT between 1983 and 2014 were reviewed. There were 22 males and 9 females with a median age of 43 years (range 16-77 years). The median duration of follow-up was 66 months (range 5-289 months). Twenty-four patients underwent surgery, and 7 patients received CIRT (70.4 GyE in 16 fractions over 4 weeks). RESULTS The overall local recurrence rate was 32 %, and the estimated overall 5- and 10-year survival rates were 72 and 57 %, respectively. The mean Musculoskeletal Tumor Society functional score was 59 %. The treatment procedures (surgery or CIRT) did not affect overall survival (P = 0.347). However, the patients who underwent surgery had impaired function compared with those who received CIRT (P = 0.03). CONCLUSION Although more patients need to be monitored to assess the clinical and functional outcomes of CIRT for patients with chondrosarcoma of the pelvis, this treatment might offer an acceptable alternative.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients with soft tissue sarcoma of the wrist and hand, limb salvage operation is extremely challenging for surgeons in attempting a complete tumor resection with negative surgical margins. In this study, we report four patients with soft tissue sarcoma of the wrist and hand treated by limb salvage operation with intraoperative extracorporeal autogenous irradiated tendon grafts. METHODS The patients were all male, and the mean age at the time of surgery was 45 years. Histological diagnoses included clear cell sarcoma in two patients, synovial sarcoma in one, and angiosarcoma in one. All four patients had high grade tumors, wherein three had American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) stage III disease and one with AJCC stage IV disease. The tumors were resected en bloc with involved tendons. The tendons were isolated from the resected tissues, irradiated ex vivo, and re-implanted into the host tendons. In one patient, the bone was resected additionally because of tumor invasion to the bone. Hand function was evaluated using Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) rating system. RESULTS Of the four patients, three died of distant metastatic disease. The remaining patient lives and remains disease-free. The mean follow-up period was 33 months. One patient had local recurrence outside the irradiated graft at 20 months after surgery. The functional rating was 22. Lower scores were seen in patients with reconstruction of flexor tendons than extensor tendons. CONCLUSIONS Limb salvage operation with intraoperative extracorporeal autogenous irradiated tendon grafts is an acceptable method in selected patients with soft tissue sarcoma of the wrist and hand.

Abstract
Periosteal chondromas are rare benign cartilaginous tumors that arise adjacent to the cortex beneath the periosteum. These lesions are usually slow-growing and rarely exceed 3 cm in the greatest dimension. Here, we describe a 17-year-old boy who had a giant periosteal chondroma of the right distal femur, which was treated with intralesional resection and intensive curettage. In addition, we report a novel application of a bioresorbable plate in the management of the large bone defect after resection of a benign bone tumor.

Abstract
Purpose Soft tissue sarcoma of the hand is rare, and one of the most common histological diagnosis is synovial sarcoma. We report the clinical outcomes of patients with synovial sarcoma of the hand and discuss treatment strategies. Methods We reviewed five patients with synovial sarcoma of the hand treated at our institutions from 1983 to 2013. The mean patient age at the time of diagnosis was 36.6 years (range, 20–62 years). Two patients underwent marginal excision after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, followed by radiation therapy, one underwent wide local excision and two received chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Results The average duration of follow-up for all patients was 88.2 months (range, 14–218 months). Two patients continuously remained disease free, two experienced local recurrence requiring additional surgery and then showed no evidence of disease, and one who had distant metastasis at diagnosis died of the disease. No patients developed lymph node metastasis. The estimated 5-year overall survival was 80%. Conclusions Our case series suggests that patients with localised synovial sarcoma of the hand may have favourable outcomes. Wide excision or marginal excision, followed by radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy, represent acceptable treatment strategies for synovial sarcoma of the hand. Regional lymph node dissection does not seem to be essential for synovial sarcoma of the hand.
