SSG/AIO (SSG XVIII)Adjuvant study for high-risk GIST
Primary objective:
To investigate the recurrence-free survival in GIST patients with a high (>50%) risk of disease recurrence within the first 5 years following the diagnosis and treated with adjuvant imatinib mesylate either for 12 or 36 months.

SSGXX-a new adjuvant STS protocol 2007
“A Scandinavian Sarcoma Group (SSG)
treatment protocol for adult patients with non-metastatic high-risk STS of the
extremities and trunk wall”
* 2 or 3 risk (SIN) factors
•Size>8cm
•Presence of necrosis
•Presence of vascular invasion
(Opened 1998-closed 31.12.05)
Introduction of a novel risk factor assessment
•Peripheral tumor growth pattern
Infiltrative growth of a STS is a strong factor for both local recurrence and metastases
Vascular invasion
Yes
No
Eligible in Group A
2 or 3 risk-factors
- Size >8 cm
- Infiltrative growth
- Necrosis
Yes
No Not included in study
