OBJECTIVE: To report on a retrospective study of primary DSRCT aiming at characterizing long-term survivors (LTS).

METHODS: All consecutive patients treated at our institution for a primary DSRCT between 2000 and 2021 were retrospectively identified. Patients received multiagent chemotherapy ± surgery ± hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) ± whole abdomino-pelvic radiotherapy (WAP-RT) ± high-dose chemotherapy ± maintenance chemotherapy (MC). Event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) were estimated by Kaplan-Meier method. Patients alive, without evidence of disease at ≥36 months from diagnosis, were defined as LTS.

RESULTS: Thirty-eight patients were identified. All received multiagent chemotherapy; 27/38 (71%) surgery (7/27 [26%] plus HIPEC), 9/38 (24%) WAP-RT, 12/38 (32%) MC. At a median-follow-up of 37 months (IQR 18-63), overall median-EFS and median-OS were 15 and 37 months, respectively. All events occurred within 35 months. In patients who underwent surgery, median-EFS and median-OS were 19 and 37 months (23 and 43 months after R0/R1, and 10 and 19 months after R2 resection), respectively. LTS were 5/38 (13%), alive at 37, 39, 53, 64, 209 months. None had liver or extra-abdominal metastasis at diagnosis, they all received R0/R1 resection, 3/5 had WAP-RT, 2/5 MC, 1/5 received high-dose chemotherapy, none HIPEC.

CONCLUSIONS: In our series cure was likely achieved in 13% of DSRCT. LTS had no liver/extra-abdominal disease, were treated with complete surgery, and possibly WAP-RT/MC.
