A Phase II Surgical Trial Of Intralesional Resection Of Low-Grade Intracompartmental Chondrosarcoma Of Bone


OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the probability of local complications (e.g., fracture, nerve palsy, deep
venous thrombosis, unexpected rehospitalization, unanticipated reoperation, or death
within 2 years) in patients with suspected low-grade intracompartmental chondrosarcoma
of the bone undergoing intralesional resection.

- Determine the 5-year probability of local recurrence and development of metastatic
disease in patients undergoing this procedure.

- Determine the impact of musculoskeletal tumor reconstruction on the functional status
of patients undergoing this procedure.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients undergo intralesional resection (curettage with high-speed burr). Patients then
receive local adjuvant treatment comprising liquid nitrogen, phenol, alcohol, or argon beam
to the excision site. The bone cavity is then filled with either polymethyacrylate cement or
a bone graft (allograft or homograft). Patients may also have a metal plate installed at the
wound site.

Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 4 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 60 patients will be accrued for this study within 30-60
months.

Inclusion Criteria


DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:

- Suspected low-grade intracompartmental chondrosarcoma, as defined by the following
criteria:

- Resorption of prior calcifications (indicated by a change in radiographic
appearance over time) AND/OR meets at least 2, but no more than 4, of the
following criteria:

- Permeative appearance of medullary bone, defined as presence of tumor
around 3 sides of a trabecula of normal bone

- Endosteal scalloping, defined as > 50% of adjacent cortical thickness

- Bone expansion, defined as a circumferential increase in diameter of the
bone beyond the adjacent normal bone
