Treatment for rhabdomyosarcoma may consists of [[chemotherapy]], [[radiation therapy]] and surgery. Chemotherapy may be given as [[neoadjuvant chemotherapy]] or [[adjuvant chemotherapy]]. [[Radiation therapy]] may be used as local therapy.
Treatment for rhabdomyosarcoma may consists of [[chemotherapy]], [[radiation therapy]] and [[surgery]] and treatments depends on [[Cancer staging|staging]] [[classification]] and [[Risk stratification tools|risk stratification]]. Rhabdomyosarcoma [[chemotherapy]] depends on patient's risk groups. [[Vincristine]], [[actinomycin D]],and [[cyclophosphamide]] are the fundamental [[chemotherapy]] standard based on [[Children's Oncology Group]]. [[Ifosfamide]], [[vincristine]], and [[actinomycin D]] are the fundamental [[chemotherapy]] standard base on European [[Soft tissue]] [[Sarcoma]] Group. Patients's response to [[chemotherapy]] is classified to five groups as complete response, good response, poor response, objective response, and progressive disease. [[Radiation therapy]] may be used as local therapy and is usually initiated after 4 [[chemotherapy]] cycles. The only exception for starting [[radiotherapy]] from the first day is [[vision loss]] and [[spinal cord compression]]. [[Radiotherapy]] dosage is based on completeness of [[tumor]] [[resection]] before [[chemotherapy]] and completeness of a delayed primary [[tumor]] [[excision]] after [[adjuvant chemotherapy]].

Overview

Treatment for rhabdomyosarcoma may consists of chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery and treatments depends on staging classification and risk stratification. Rhabdomyosarcoma chemotherapy depends on patient's risk groups. Vincristine, actinomycin D,and cyclophosphamide are the fundamental chemotherapy standard based on Children's Oncology Group. Ifosfamide, vincristine, and actinomycin D are the fundamental chemotherapy standard base on European Soft tissue Sarcoma Group. Patients's response to chemotherapy is classified to five groups as complete response, good response, poor response, objective response, and progressive disease. Radiation therapy may be used as local therapy and is usually initiated after 4 chemotherapy cycles. The only exception for starting radiotherapy from the first day is vision loss and spinal cord compression. Radiotherapy dosage is based on completeness of tumor resection before chemotherapy and completeness of a delayed primary tumor excision after adjuvant chemotherapy.

Medical Therapy

Patients response Tumor volume reduction
Complete response No measurable tumor volume as compared to initial one
Good response Volume reduction of > 2/3 tumor as compared to initial one
Poor response Volume reduction of > 1/3 and < 2/3 as compared to initial one
Objective response Volume reduction of > 1/3 as compared to initial one
Progressive disease Volume increase of > 1/3 or new lesion development
