Uterine leiomyosarcoma Understanding

Uterine leiomyosarcoma: Overview

A uterine leiomyosarcoma (ULMS) is a rare malignant (cancerous) tumor that arises from the smooth muscle lining the walls of the uterus (myometrium). Leiomyosarcoma is classified as a soft tissue sarcoma. Sarcomas are malignant tumors that arise from the connective tissue, which connects, supports and surrounds various structures and organs in the body. Soft tissue includes fat, muscle, never, tendons, tissue surrounding the joints (synovial tissue), and blood and lymph vessels. The exact cause of leiomyosarcoma, including uterine leiomyosarcoma, is unknown.

Symptoms

Symptoms of uterine leiomyosarcoma may vary from case to case depending upon the exact location, size and progression of the tumor. Many women will not have any apparent symptoms (asymptomatic). The most common symptom is abnormal bleeding from the vagina and the uterus. Postmenopausal bleeding is an important factor that may indicate a uterine leiomyosarcoma. Additional symptoms may occur including pressure or pain affecting the pelvis or stomach, abnormal vaginal discharge, and a change in bladder or bowel habits. General symptoms often associated with cancer include fatigue, fever, weight loss, and a general feeling of ill health (malaise).

Diagnosis

There are no reliable methods to diagnose a uterine LMS before surgery. It is almost always found by chance at the time of a hysterectomy for what was thought to be benign fibroids. There are no specific signs or symptoms, especially in young women. Rapidly changing, or enlarging, fibroids in premenopausal women should be investigated. The vast majority of the time these are not malignant fibroids that are growing in a menopausal woman are concerning and should always be surgical removed.

Treatment

The primary form of treatment for a uterine leiomyosarcoma is surgical removal of the entire tumor and any affected tissue. Total surgical removal of the uterus (hysterectomy) is usually performed. Anti-cancer drugs used alone or combination (chemotherapy) and radiation therapy have been used to treat individuals with leiomyosarcoma following surgery (adjuvant therapy) with limited benefit. Leiomyosarcomas have a high risk of recurrence, individuals should be examined routinely after surgery.

Uterine leiomyosarcoma Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Uterine leiomyosarcoma report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Uterine leiomyosarcoma Emerging Drugs

• Trabectedin: PharmMar

Yondelis® (trabectedin) is a novel, synthetically produced antitumor agent originally isolated from Ecteinascidia turbinata, a type of sea squirt. Yondelis® exerts its anticancer effects primarily by inhibiting active transcription, a type of gene expression on which proliferating cancer cells are particularly dependent.

• Letrozole: Novartis

Letrozole is a non-steroidal type II aromatase inhibitor. It blocks the active site, and therefore the electron transfer chain of CYP19A1. This competitive inhibition prevents the conversion of androgens to estrogen. This action leads to a reduction in uterine weight and elevated leuteinizing hormone.8 In postmenopausal women, the action of aromatase is responsible for the majority of estrogen production. With reduced availability of estrogen, estrogen-dependant tumors regress. Third generation aromatase inhibitors do not significantly affect cortisol, aldosterone, and thyroxine levels. Currently, in phase II of clinical trials.
