Thoracotomy Versus Thoracoscopic Management of Pulmonary Metastases in Patients With Osteosarcoma

May 1, 2026 updated by: Children's Oncology Group

A Phase 3 Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Open vs Thoracoscopic Management of Pulmonary Metastases in Patients With Osteosarcoma

This phase III trial compares the effect of open thoracic surgery (thoracotomy) to thoracoscopic surgery (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery or VATS) in treating patients with osteosarcoma that has spread to the lung (pulmonary metastases). Open thoracic surgery is a type of surgery done through a single larger incision (like a large cut) that goes between the ribs, opens up the chest, and removes the cancer. Thoracoscopy is a type of chest surgery where the doctor makes several small incisions and uses a small camera to help with removing the cancer. This trial is being done evaluate the two different surgery methods for patients with osteosarcoma that has spread to the lung to find out which is better.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To determine if open surgical resection is superior to thoracoscopic resection for thoracic event-free survival (tEFS) in patients with resectable oligometastatic pulmonary osteosarcoma.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine if open surgical resection is superior to thoracoscopy for event free survival (EFS) in patients with resectable oligometastatic pulmonary osteosarcoma.

II. To determine if open surgical resection is superior to thoracoscopy for overall survival (OS) in patients with resectable oligometastatic pulmonary osteosarcoma.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To compare 30-day rates of perioperative surgical complications for both open surgical resection and thoracoscopy.

II. To compare patterns of recurrence (ipsilateral and/or contralateral) in patients who undergo open or thoracoscopic resection for unilateral or bilateral pulmonary metastases.

III. To describe the use of localization techniques and its relationship with both surgical approach and pathologic findings.

IV. To assess the prognostic significance of a decision to change the post-operative treatment plan.

V. To describe the relationship between the preoperative chest computed tomography (CT) imaging, intraoperative surgical findings, and pathologic results, comparing radiological features to the presence of viable tumor.

VI. To generate well-characterized, clinically-annotated, distributable models of metastatic osteosarcoma.

VII. To collect and bank pulmonary metastatic lesions (including frozen tissues and paired metastatic lesions coming from the same patient) to facilitate study of metastatic disease and serial blood samples for future tumor profiling, germline and circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) studies.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized into 1 of 2 arms.

ARM A: Patients undergo open thoracic surgery (thoracotomy).

ARM B: Patients undergo thoracoscopy (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery or VATS).

All patients undergo computed tomography (CT) throughout the trial. Patients may also undergo collection of tissue on study and blood throughout the trial.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 7-14 days, 4-6 weeks, and 3 months post-surgery and then every 3 months for up to 2 years.

  • Newly diagnosed patients must be receiving or recently completed (within 60 days) systemic therapy considered by the treating physician to be standard treatment for newly diagnosed osteosarcoma (eg, cisplatin-doxorubicin or ifosfamide-based drug regimens) at the time of enrollment on this study. Dose and drug modifications for toxicity do not exclude patients from participation.
  • Patients at time of 1st recurrence must have completed systemic therapy for their initial primary tumor, considered by the treating physician to be standard treatment for newly diagnosed osteosarcoma (eg, cisplatin-doxorubicin or ifosfamide-based drug regimens) at the time of enrollment on this study. Dose and drug modifications for toxicity do not exclude patients from participation.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with unresectable primary tumor.
  • Patients with pulmonary metastatic lesions that would require anatomic resection (lobectomy or pneumonectomy) or lesions that are defined as "central" (i.e., central lesion involves or is proximal to segmental bronchi and peripheral is lesion distal to segmental bronchi).
  • Patients with chest wall or mediastinal based metastatic lesions, or with significant pleural effusion.
  • Patients with disease progression at either the primary or pulmonary metastatic site while on initial therapy. Note: Once the patient has been enrolled on the study, additional computed tomography (CT) scans are not anticipated prior to thoracic surgery. Note: Some variation in nodule size measurements over the course of pre-operative therapy is anticipated and does not qualify for exclusion unless deemed true disease progression by the primary treatment team.
  • Patients with evidence of extrapulmonary metastatic disease.
  • Patients who received therapeutic pulmonary surgery for lung metastasis prior to enrollment.
  • All patients and/or their parents or legal guardians must sign a written informed consent.
  • All institutional, Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and National Cancer Institute (NCI) requirements for human studies must be met.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Thoracic event-free survival (tEFS)
Time Frame: Four years after enrollment
Estimated four year thoracic event free survival (tEFS) where tEFS is calculated as the time from study enrollment to thoracic cavity event. Any recurrence within the pulmonary parenchyma, involving the pleural surface or the drain/surgical site wound will be considered an event. A death that results from the procedure, as confirmed by the treating physician, will be considered an event. Patients with recurrences arising outside the thoracic region, the diagnosis of a malignancy that is not osteosarcoma (SMN) or death considered unrelated to the study surgical procedure, as confirmed by the treating physician will be considered competing events provided these occur prior to a thoracic cavity event as defined above. Patients without an event of any kind at last contact are considered censored.
Four years after enrollment

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Event free survival (EFS)
Time Frame: Four years after enrollment
Estimated four year EFS where EFS is calculated as the time from study enrollment to disease progression, disease relapse, occurrence of a second malignant neoplasm, death from any cause or last follow-up whichever occurs first. Patients without an event at last contact are considered censored.
Four years after enrollment
Overall survival (OS)
Time Frame: Four years after enrollment
Time from study enrollment to death or last patient contact. Patients alive at last contact are considered censored.
Four years after enrollment

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Perioperative surgical complications
Time Frame: At 30 days post-op
The descriptions and grading scales found in the revised National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0 will be utilized for AE reporting.
At 30 days post-op
Mode of tEFS event
Time Frame: Four years after enrollment
Classified as: (1) ipsilateral recurrence site; (2) contralateral recurrence site; or (3) ipsilateral and contralateral recurrence site. The analysis will be restricted to patients with unilateral disease at enrollment.
Four years after enrollment
Use of localization techniques
Time Frame: 12 months after enrollment
Data collection will include a description of all localization methods used.
12 months after enrollment
Decision to change the post-operative treatment plan
Time Frame: 12 months after enrollment
Whether the investigator adhered to the post-thoracic surgery plan for systemic therapy.
12 months after enrollment
Radiological features to the presence of viable tumor
Time Frame: 12 months after enrollment
Radiological features and pathological characteristics of lung nodules contributed by the same patient.
12 months after enrollment
Frequency of obtaining quality tumor tissue for biological analysis
Time Frame: 1 month after surgical intervention
Tumor samples obtained from the surgical procedure that are submitted to the COG tissue bank and subjected to dual nucleic acid extraction will be classified by central review as to whether sufficient tumor content was obtained for ultra low passage whole genome sequencing.
1 month after surgical intervention
Post operative pain intensity at time point 2, 48 hours after surgical intervention
Time Frame: 48 hours after surgical intervention
NRS 11 single item pain intensity score.
48 hours after surgical intervention
