Neoadjuvant Radiotherapy and Surgery for High-Risk Localized Ewing Sarcoma

May 27, 2026 updated by: Xie Lu, Peking University People's Hospital

An Observational Study on the Safety and Efficacy of Neoadjuvant Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy Sequential Surgery for High-Risk Localized Ewing Sarcoma

This is a single-center, single-arm, prospective observational study to evaluate the long-term local control rate, safety, and efficacy of preoperative neoadjuvant radiotherapy (36-45 Gy) followed by sequential radical surgery and postoperative chemotherapy in patients with high-risk, resectable localized Ewing sarcoma.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

Patients diagnosed with high-risk localized Ewing sarcoma will routinely receive standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy. For patients with resectable tumors, preoperative neoadjuvant radiotherapy at a dose of 36-45 Gy will be administered, followed by definitive surgery and subsequent adjuvant chemotherapy. This study does not interfere with standard clinical management and focuses on collecting follow-up data to observe the local recurrence-free survival (LRFS), wound complications, and surgical margin status.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Initial treated ewing sarcoma patients in PKUPH and later would recieve definitivesurgery in PKUPH with complete clinical materials.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. The subject or their legal representative signs the written informed consent prior to enrollment.
  2. Age <= 55 years old.
  3. Histologically confirmed Ewing sarcoma, with FET family (including EWSR1 or FUS) gene rearrangement confirmed by FISH or NGS. Clear FET-non ETS fusion cases are excluded.
  4. Deemed difficult to achieve a satisfactory surgical margin by 2 or more senior musculoskeletal oncologists.
  5. ECOG Performance Status: 0-1.
  6. Expected life expectancy >= 3 months.
  7. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 1 week prior to enrollment and agree to use contraception; male subjects must agree to use contraception or have undergone surgical sterilization during the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. No opportunity for surgical resection after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
  2. Extensive metastasis with no indication for local surgical resection.
  3. Uncontrolled concurrent medical conditions.
  4. Prior radiotherapy to the surgical site during front-line treatment.
  5. History of other malignant tumors within the past 5 years.
  6. Inability to cooperate with preoperative neoadjuvant radiotherapy (e.g., due to psychiatric factors).
  7. Any condition that, in the investigator's judgment, might harm the patient or prevent compliance with study requirements.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Local Recurrence-Free Survival (LRFS)
Time Frame: From the date of surgery up to the date of first documented local recurrence or death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years post-surgery.
Time from the date of surgery to the first documented local recurrence or death from any cause.
From the date of surgery up to the date of first documented local recurrence or death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years post-surgery.
Wound Healing Status
Time Frame: Postoperative week 2.
Evaluation of surgical wound healing grade (Grade A/B/C) according to clinical criteria.
Postoperative week 2.
Surgical Margin Status
Time Frame: At the time of pathological evaluation, typically within 7 to 14 days post-surgery.
Pathological evaluation of margins (R0/R1/R2) and the distance to the closest margin.
At the time of pathological evaluation, typically within 7 to 14 days post-surgery.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Icidence of Adverse Events (Safety)
Time Frame: From enrollment up to 30 days after the completion of all treatments.
Grading and frequency of adverse events, particularly wound complications and infections, graded by CTCAE v5.0.
From enrollment up to 30 days after the completion of all treatments.
Event-Free Survival (EFS)
Time Frame: From the date of surgery up to the date of first documented disease progression, recurrence, or death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years post-surgery.
Time from surgery to disease progression, recurrence, or death from any cause.
From the date of surgery up to the date of first documented disease progression, recurrence, or death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years post-surgery.
Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame: From the date of surgery up to the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years post-surgery.
Time from surgery to death from any cause.
From the date of surgery up to the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years post-surgery.

Primary Completion (Estimated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
