Latest Developments in Targeted Biological Therapies in the Management of Chordoma and Chondrosarcoma.

ABSTRACT:

Study design

Systematic review.

Objectives

The objective of this review paper was to summarize targeted molecular therapy options for spinal chordoma and chondrosarcoma, and to provide an update on the relevant clinical trials open for recruitment.

Methods

A systematic review of the current literature was performed, according to PRISMA guidelines, to summarize the latest developments in non-surgical molecular treatment options for low grade malignant primary spinal tumours. We also summarize those actively recruiting clinical trials based on clinicaltrials.gov.

Results

A total of 73 studies and completed clinical trials were reviewed. Twenty actively recruiting clinical trials (eight for chordoma and twelve for chondrosarcoma) were identified.
