Eligibility Criteria
INCLUSION CRITERIA :
I1. Age ≥ 12 years at the day of consenting to the study;
I2. Patients must have histologically confirmed diagnosis of primary bone sarcoma including but not limited to: Osteosarcomas, Ewing sarcomas, Chondrosarcomas, Undifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcomas (UPS), Leiomyosarcomas (LMS) and Angiosarcomas;
I3. Prior treatment for localized or metastatic disease for bone sarcoma must have been completed, consisting of a standard multimodal treatment based on the histological subtype:
For OS, (excepted head and neck localisations), neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant chemotherapy should include methotrexate-based regimen for patients < 18 years old; patients ≥ 18 years old may have received either methotrexate-based regimen or anthracycline and cisplatin-based regimen For head and neck OS, neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant chemotherapy should include adriamycin, cisplatin or ifosfamide-based regimen.
For non-OS, neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant chemotherapy should include adriamycin and/or cisplatin-based regimen.
I4. Recovery to NCI-CTCAE v5 Grade 0 or 1 level or recovery to baseline preceding the prior treatment from any previous drug/procedure related toxicity (except alopecia, anaemia, and hypothyroidism);
I5. Interval between the last chemotherapy administration and the date of randomisation: at least 4 weeks but no longer than 2 months;
I6. Confirmed complete remission or no evidence of disease (for metastatic disease);
Patients with pulmonary micro nodules can be included provided they do not meet the following criteria:
- At least one lung nodule of 10mm or more
- And/or at least two nodules well limited between 6-9mm
- And/or at least 5 nodules well limited of 5mm or less All the other situations will be considered as doubtful lesions except in case of metastatic disease confirmed during the lung surgery of the residual lung lesions after pre-operative chemotherapy. If no other metastatic localisation is detected at the initial staging, the patient will be considered as localised disease and eligible for randomisation.
