Brief Summary
SSG XX is a phase II trial for high-risk soft tissue sarcomas (STS) of the extremities and trunk wall. Prognostic factors (histopathological markers) are used to identify high-risk tumors. SSG XX will evaluate chemo- and radiotherapy given adjuvantly to these patients. In a specified group of patients also preoperatively given therapy will be studied.
