Brief Summary

Osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma treatment has not changed in the last 30 years. For other types of cancer the epidemiologic and prognostic correlations between dietary behavior, lifestyle and metabolic alterations (i.e.obesity, insulin-resistance) are well known (breast cancer, prostate cancer, colon cancer). However, no epidemiological or prognostic data are available about the metabolic profile and lifestyle behaviors in patients with osteosarcoma and Ewing'sarcoma and only few preclinical studies are available. An in vitro study showed a higher glucose and glutamine consumption from metastatic osteosarcoma cells compared to primary tumor osteosarcoma cells. The effect of the intestinal microbiota into the metabolism of nutrients, drugs, inflammation, epigenetic and immune response was found not only correlated to gastrointestinal tumors but also to other tumors outside gastrointestinal system as well The aim of this study is to investigate if there are differential dietary habits, metabolome, microbiota or immune profile in patients with bone sarcoma compared to a control population in a 1:2 multicenter study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Diet habits in patients versus case controls measured by EPIC COS FFQ

    Diet habits from osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma patients will be compared with diet habits from a control population. The diet habits data will be evaluated EPIC COS FFQ( European Prospective Investigation Into Cancer and Nutrition Case Only Study Food Frequency Questionnaire) which report: the food consumptions in the last 12 months \- Main food groups (water and other drinks, grain products, fruits and vegetables, legumes, meat and fish products, dairy products, sweets and savory snacks) FFQ-EPIC COS can be accessed on PubMed (PMID: 12484126 and PMID: 12484120).

    At diagnosis, up to 4 years

  • Diet Quality Index -

    Diet quality index from osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma patients will be compared with diet habits from a control population. Data will be accessed with EPIC COS FFQ( European Prospective Investigation Into Cancer and Nutrition Case Only Study Food Frequency Questionnaire ) \- Diet quality index will be calculated to compare adherence to dietery guidelines and it will be expressed in percentage

    At diagnosis, up to 4 years

  • Number of patients overweight and obese measured by Body mass index (BMI compared to controls)

    Body Mass Index (BMI) measure will be achieved in patients and controls by impedance Tanita scale model BC545 based on height (in centimeters) and weight (in Kilograms) expressed in subjects \>18yrs as 1) underweight if \<18.5, 2) normal weight 18.5 to 25,3)overweight 25-30 and 4) obese \>30. BMI measure will be achieved by impedance Tanita scale model BC545 in study patients at diagnosis and compared with a control subjects.

    At diagnosis, up to 4 years

  • Body composition

    Lean mass and fat mass will be calculated via impedance Tanita scale model BC545 as a percentage of total weight .Lean body mass is the difference between total body weight and body fat weight, expressed as percentage (%)

    At diagnosis, up to 4 years

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Concentration of blood metabolites - Metabolome

    At diagnosis, up to 4 years

  • Microbiota

    At diagnosis, up to 4 years

  • Concentrations of lymphocytes subpopulation

    At diagnosis, up to 4 years

  • Lipid profile and Glucidic profile

    At diagnosis, up to 4 years

Other: EPIC-COS Food Frequency Questionnaire diet Evaluation

GROUP 2 - Pilot Phase :55 Patients and 110 Control cases (1:2)

* Patients of \>= 12 years old (pediatric and adults) with new diagnosis of osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma will be included Localized and metastatic Male and female * Control cases matched by age, sex, and geographic area

Other: EPIC-COS Food Frequency Questionnaire diet EvaluationOther: Metabolome, Microbiota, Lymphocytes subpopulations

Interventions

Anthropometric measurements (Body mass Index, Lean and fat body composition evaluation) and diet habits evaluation with EPIC-COS-FFQ

Also known as: EPIC-FFQ diet Evaluation
GROUP 1 - 215 Patients and 430 Control cases (1:2)GROUP 2 - Pilot Phase :55 Patients and 110 Control cases (1:2)

At diagnosis before any treatment for bone sarcoma will be obtained : 1. a blood sample for metabolomics analyses 2. a stool sample for microbiota analysis 3. Lymphocyte subpopulations (CD3, CD4, CD8, NK) will be analyzed in blood samples

GROUP 2 - Pilot Phase :55 Patients and 110 Control cases (1:2)

Biospecimen

Retention: SAMPLES WITHOUT DNA

Inside this main study (270:540) a pilot study of 55 patients and 110 controls of same age, sex, geographic area (1:2) will be performed for analysis of metabolome, microbiota, and immune profile. At diagnosis before any treatment a blood sample will be obtained for metabolomics analyses (untargeted approach with over 100.000 of metabolites, (Mass Spectrometry method) and to evaluate lymphocyte subpopulations (CD3, CD4, CD8, NK) in blood. Microbiota will be analyzed in donated stool samples using the S16 method. All data will be analyzed for inter-correlations among the different parameters and to investigate putative associations with Food Frequency questionnaires and anthropometric data.
