PD-1 inhibition with pembrolizumab may be an effective treatment option for adolescent and young adult patients with some sarcoma subtypes, according to a study presented at the 2017 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) meeting in Chicago, Illinois.1
Among adolescents and young adults with cancer, 10% to 15% have sarcoma, which carries a poor prognosis after metastasis or relapse.
For this retrospective analysis, researchers reviewed data from 14 adolescent and young adult patients with sarcoma to determine whether PD-1 inhibition is an effective strategy in this setting."
