Background: Trabectedin is a marine - derived chemotherapy, which lately received FDA approval for use in anthracycline resistant advanced soft tissue sarcoma (STS), especially liposarcoma and leiomyosarcoma (L-sarcomas). Methods: We report our ten-year real-life experience with trabectedin, 1.5mg/m2/d c.i.v. q3w till progression, regarding safety and efficacy in a cohort of 86 patients (24-83y). Liposarcoma was the diagnosis in 46% , leiomyosarcoma in 43%. Results: A total of 703 cycles of Trabectedin were given, with a median of five cycles per patient (range 1-59). Median overall survival (mOS) was 11 months for liposarcoma patients (range 1-63), and 15 months for leiomyosarcoma patients (range 1-35). There was no statistically significant difference in progression free survival (PFS), when stratified according to previous treatment lines given. Trabectedin exhibited a favorable safety profile, with only 22% requiring dose reductions. Grade 3 and more toxicity were noted in 25% of the patients, mostly myelosuppression. There was no treatment related death. Conclusions: In contrast to former trials, our retrospective data represents real life experience with Trabectedin, and includes patients with diverse age, histology, performane status, prior treatments and tumor burden. The group includes 10 patients (11.6%) who received Trabectedin as first line (Either due to congestive heart failure or to rapid progression following adjuvant Doxorubicin and Ifosfamide), 10 patients (11.6%) were above age 70, nine (10.5%) had histologies other than liposarcoma or leiomyosarcoma, and 23 (26.7%) had ECOG PS of 2 or higher. Trabectedin is a safe and effective drug in advanced high grade STS. Further research is needed to identify which patients will benefit most.
