Significant differences in ORR were observed among histological subtypes (well-differentiated vs de-differentiated vs myxoid: 0 vs 17.9% vs 50%; p = 0.039). Six patients underwent surgery before disease progression, and one patient with myxoid liposarcoma (MLPS) had a pathological complete response. With a median follow-up of 21.8 (range, 2.7-30.7) months, the median progression-free survival (mPFS) was 6.9 (95% confidence interval (CI), 4.7-9.1) months, and the 6-month PFS rate was 60.5%. Based on various histological subtypes, the mPFS was 8.4 (95% CI, 4.1-12.7) months with well-differentiated liposarcoma, 5.8 (95% CI, 3.3-8.3) months with de-differentiated liposarcoma and not reached with MLPS, respectively. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) of any grade occurred in 36 (76.6%) patients, with grade 3 or higher TRAEs in 21 (44.7%) patients. The most common TRAEs were neutropenia (53.2%), proteinuria (21.3%), and anorexia (21.3%).ConclusionThe combined treatment strategy involving eribulin, anlotinib, and camrelizumab showed promising efficacy and manageable safety in patients with advanced or metastatic RLPS, particularly in those with MLPS.","PeriodicalId":23053,"journal":{"name":"Therapeutic Advances in Medical Oncology","volume":"3 1","pages":"17588359241276968"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142268334","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
