Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The purpose of this study is to determine the ability of a specific imaging method, termed Diffuse Optical Spectroscopic Imaging, to provide metabolic and functional information which can be used to predict overall response to preoperative (neoadjuvant) chemotherapy in patients with sarcomas. Sarcoma patients face comparatively poor response rates to chemotherapy and early, non-invasive indications of response could provide physicians with the information necessary to make evidence-based changes in treatment strategies. Patients who do not demonstrate early signs of response would be spared the unnecessary side-effects of an ineffective chemotherapy regimen, and could either be switched to a different regimen or undergo surgery
