Summary

This Phase II trial is testing whether a combination of two chemotherapy drugs, doxorubicin and trabectedin, can help prevent uterine leiomyosarcoma from coming back after surgery. The study enrolls 48 patients with high-risk, early-stage disease who have had their tumor fully removed. Researchers will monitor side effects and how long patients remain cancer-free.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a standard chemotherapy option to delay or prevent recurrence of uterine leiomyosarcoma after surgery.
