About this trial
This is phase II randomized, multicenter study of treatment with L-TC and preoperative HFRT in patients who were aged 18 years or older with documented localised or locally advanced soft-tissue sarcoma of the extremity.
Eligible patients will be randomly assigned 2:1 to receive a preoperative HFRT alone (Arm A) or L-TC with preoperative HFRT (Arm B).

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Evaluation of the efficacy of the L-TC treatment in combination with preoperative hypofractionated radiotherapy (HFRT)
Pathological complete response rate (pCR): defined as the presence of \< 10% residual malignant viable cells.
Secondary outcomes
Evaluation of the acute tolerance o f L-TC
Toxicities and biological analysis before each injection of L-TC and before surgery, described by type and grade, using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0 classification
Evaluation of the late tolerance o f L-TC
Toxicities and biological analysis before each injection of L-TC and before surgery, described by type and grade, using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0 classification
Evaluation of the acute tolerance of radiotherapy
Global tolerance (radiotherapy toxicities (oedema, radiodermatitis, fibrosis, bone fracture) and laboratory abnormalities) at each physician consultation for radiotherapy and at follow-up, using the CTCAE v.5.0 classification
Evaluation of the late tolerance of radiotherapy
Global tolerance (radiotherapy toxicities (oedema, radiodermatitis, fibrosis, bone fracture) and laboratory abnormalities) at each physician consultation for radiotherapy and at follow-up, using the CTCAE v.5.0 classification
