Reducing complications after sarcoma surgery
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a special care plan before, during, and after surgery to lower the risk of problems for people with sarcoma. It compares this new approach to standard care for 300 patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a sarcoma in an arm, leg, or trunk (chest, belly, or back)
- You are having surgery for sarcoma at Karolinska University Hospital in Sweden
- You are 15 years old or older
- You are a Swedish citizen

This Phase 2 trial tests a “prehabilitation” program done before surgery to help people with arm or leg (limb) sarcoma be better prepared for their operation. It may help improve how well patients tolerate treatment and recover by planning supportive care around the weeks before surgery.
This trial looks at whether an organized “enhanced recovery” plan can help people recover better after surgery for a suspected sarcoma in the arm or leg. If you’re having surgery at Vanderbilt, it may support faster, smoother recovery regardless of whether you use opioid pain medicine before surgery.
This trial tests a precision medicine approach by giving targeted therapy before surgery for high-risk soft tissue sarcoma. The goal is to see if matching treatment to your tumor's type can improve outcomes.
This trial tests a special negative pressure bandage used after surgery to prevent wound complications in people with high-grade soft tissue sarcoma of the limbs who have had radiation therapy before their operation.
This trial tests a new type of radiation called spatially fractionated radiation therapy (SFRT) given before surgery for large soft tissue sarcomas in the arm, leg, or trunk. The goal is to see if it helps shrink the tumor and improve treatment outcomes.
This trial tests whether a shorter course of radiation before surgery is effective for soft tissue sarcomas in certain locations. It aims to make treatment more convenient while maintaining good results.
