Kapp 1 1 Stanford University, Stanford, CA, 2 Stony Brook University, New York, NY Purpose/Objective(s): To analyze the outcomes of and identify prognostic factors for patients treated with surgery and intraoper- ative radiotherapy (IORT) for soft tissue sarcoma in adults from a single institution. Materials/Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 50 consecutive patients from 1985–2006 treated with IORT to 62 discrete sites with median and mean follow up of 24 and 32 months, respectively. Primary sites included: retroperitoneum-pelvis (78%), extrem- ity (6%) and other (16%). The majority of patients (71%) had recurrent disease failing prior surgery (71%) or radiation (32%). Mean disease free interval (DFI) for recurrences prior to IORT was 1.9 yrs (range 2 weeks-5.4 yrs). Orthovoltage X-rays (200–250 kVp) were employed via individually sized and beveled cone applicators. Additional mean clinical characteristics included: age 53 (range 27–84); tumor size 10 cm (range 1–25); high grade histology (72%) and dose 1159 cGy (range 600–1600). Post-operative external beam radiation (EBRT) or chemotherapy was given to 41% and 29% of the cohort, respectively. Outcomes measured were infield control (IFC) loco-regional control (LRC), distant metastasis free survival (DMFS), disease specific survival (DSS) and treatment-related complications. Results: Kaplan-Meier (KM) 2-year IFC, LRC, DMFS and DSS probabilities for the whole group were 66%, 33%, 64%, and 57%, respectively. Prognostic factors found to be significant (p \0.05) on multivariate analysis (MVA) were: prior DFI and tumor size for LRC; extremity location and leiomyosarcoma histology for DMFS; and prior DFI for DSS. Our cohort had 5 grade 3/4 (G3/4) complications associated with treatment (surgery & IORT) translating into a 5-yr KM G3/4 complication free survival (CFS) of 85%. Conclusions: IORT following tumor reductive surgery is reasonably well tolerated and seems to confer in-field control in carefully selected patients. Author Disclosure: W. Hara, None; P.

Macdonald, S. Lessnick, L. Chen, J. Chen, L. Randall University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT Purpose/Objective(s): Alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) is a rare soft tissue sarcoma that accounts for less than 1% of malignant mesenchymal neoplasm. There is a paucity of data with regard to the prognosis and treatment of these patients. The authors used the population-based Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) registry to update what to our knowledge is the largest series of patients with ASPS reported to date. Materials/Methods: All patients (n = 132) with a diagnosis of ASPS were obtained in the National cancer Institute’s SEER da- tabase for the years 1973-2003. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to assess the association of clinical, tumor, and treatment characteristics of patient and survival. Results: A total of 132 patients with ASPS were identified over 30 years of follow-up. In all, there were 78 females and 54 males, with a mean age of 27.6 years. The anatomic distribution of their primary tumors included: extremity 82, abdomen and pelvis 24, head neck 13, thorax 6, trunk and female breast 4, others 3. The median tumor size was 7 cm (range, 0.2–60). Fifty-one (38.6%) presented as localized disease; Sixty-four (48.5%) patients were treated with surgery only, while sixty-three (47.7%) were treated with combination of surgery and radiotherapy. With median follow-up 3.6 years, median overall survival was 7.5 years, and 7.8 years for the cause-specific survival (CSS).
