Regarding radiomics, Pollack envisions this novel treatment approach will have a role in the future.
Additionally, Pollack says that he is very excited for the field of sarcoma to move toward immunotherapy in the next 5 to 10 years. The data from SARC028, which investigated treatment with the PD-1 inhibitor pembrolizumab (Keytruda) holds promise for patients with pleomorphic undifferentiated sarcoma. Another ongoing clinical trial is exploring the combination trial of doxorubicin plus pembrolizumab, which also is exciting, Pollack adds.
