Dr Bisogno presents results at the 2018 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting from a randomised phase III clinical trial of 6 months maintenance chemotherapy for children with the rare disease rhabdomyosarcoma.
For those receiving the low dose chemotherapy following initial treatments, 5 year overall survival improved from 73.7% to 86.5%, which is the first improvement in this indication for more than 30 years.
