Summary

Patients will receive neoadjuvant sorafenib (investigational agent) in combination with preoperative external beam conformal radiotherapy (50 Gy in 25 fractions) for localized, large soft tissue sarcomas of the extremity and body wall prior to resection with curative intent. Sorafenib is an FDA-approved targeted agent for patients with renal cell carcinoma and hepatocellular carcinoma. Preliminary data suggest activity for sorafenib against soft tissue sarcoma in the metastatic setting. Limited data are available regarding the safety and efficacy of sorafenib in combination with radiotherapy.

The Phase I portion of the trial will seek to establish the safety of sorafenib and radiotherapy in the neoadjuvant setting for soft tissue sarcomas of the extremity and body wall. The Phase II portion of the trial will aim to determine the pathologic near-complete/complete response rate (≥ 95% tumor necrosis) of this multimodality therapy. Molecular and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI studies will seek to establish correlative biological and imaging markers of response and/or resistance to this therapy.
