  Purpose

The purpose of the study was to investigate whether functional MRI imaging (diffusion weighted imaging) is useful for monitoring the therapeutic response of bone sarcomas in children and young adults. All patients will be scanned before, during and after chemotherapy. The findings on MRI will be correlated with histological finding after surgery.

Second purpose : to define apparent diffusion coefficient value of the bone sarcoma.

Third purpose : to try define prognostic factors, to investigate if there is a correlation between early treatment response and outcome.

Further study details as provided by Universitaire Ziekenhuizen Leuven:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • tumor necrosis - therapy response [ Time Frame: 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

    correlation of MRI findings with clinical findings during chemotherapy correlation of diffusion weighted MRI and histopathology results after surgical resection.

    Calculation of apparent diffusion coefficient : is it a valuable parameter?



Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Prognosis and outcome [ Time Frame: 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Is there a correlation between early treatment response and outcome? Is diffusion weighted MRI able to predict outcome of the patient (prognostic factor)?

Groups/Cohorts Assigned Interventions
Osteosarcoma

All patients with Osteosarcoma), proven by surgical biopsy and histopathology.

All included patients will be treated by chemotherapy (EURAMOS protocol)

An MRI will be performed before, during and post-treatment

 Other: MRI

MRI exam will be performed in all patients included in the study. The patients will be treated by chemotherapy, defined in the EURO-EWING or EURAMOS protocol.

The MR findings will not have any impact on the treatment.
Ewing Sarcoma

All patients with proven diagnosis of Ewing sarcoma, proven by surgical biopsy and histopathology.

All included patients will be treated by chemotherapy (EURO-EWING protocol)

An MRI will be performed in all included patients before, during and after the chemotherapy

 Other: MRI

MRI exam will be performed in all patients included in the study. The patients will be treated by chemotherapy, defined in the EURO-EWING or EURAMOS protocol.

The MR findings will not have any impact on the treatment.
