Protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1), a thrombin-responsive G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), is implicated in promoting metastasis in multiple tumor types, including both sarcomas and carcinomas, but the molecular mechanisms responsible remain largely unknown.
We have validated and implemented a clinical molecular diagnostic assay, MSK- Fusion Solid, for detection of gene fusions in solid tumors, including sarcomas.
The BATF3-dependent cDC1 lineage of conventional dendritic cells (cDC) is required for rejection of immunogenic sarcomas and for rejection of progressive sarcomas during checkpoint blockade therapy.

Analysis of CD20/MS4A1 expression in soft tissue sarcoma merits further attention as a promising candidate prognostic tool for survival, but not in patients with a pronounced immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment.
Tumor growth delay induced by rapamycin may be associated with the suppression of the cancer stem cell phenotype (Notch1, CD133, and CD90) and promotion of autophagy (mTOR, Beclin1, ULK1, and LC3-II/LC3-I ratio) in the murine S180 sarcoma model.
In this study, a recurrent STS-specific competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network including seven recurrence and overall survival (OS)-associated genes (LPP-AS2, MUC1, GAB2, hsa-let-7i-5p, hsa-let-7f-5p, hsa-miR-101-3p and hsa-miR-1226-3p) was established based on the gene expression profiling of 259 primary sarcomas and 3 local recurrence samples from the TCGA database.
These include gene fusions in vascular neoplasms (FOSB, CAMTA1 and TFE3), round cell sarcomas (BCOR, DUX4 and WT1), and fibroblastic/myofibroblastic tumors (STAT6, ALK and Pan-TRK); amplifications in well-differentiated and dedifferentiated liposarcomas (MDM2 and CDK4); and deletions in several aggressive neoplasms (SMARCB1 and SMARCA4).
DDP (cisplatin), a DNA cross-linking agent, is one of the most common chemotherapeutic drugs that have been widely used in the treatment of sarcomas and germ cell tumors.
Among these genes, ZAP70, CD3E, CD3G, CD3D, and CD247 were part of the TCR 'signal-triggering module'; (3) High expression of the PIGs involved in the TCR signaling pathway was associated with improved OS in 5 cancer types (breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), cervical squamous cell carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma (CESC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), and sarcoma (SARC)), but was associated with decreased OS in brain lower-grade glioma (LGG).

The presence of COL1A1-USP6 gene rearrangement in MO/FOPD links these lesions to other USP6-driven tumors and represents a very useful supportive marker, which may help to avoid overdiagnosis of MO/FOPD as a sarcoma.
Phase Ib/II trial results of olaratumab plus doxorubicin in adult patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma (STS) supported accelerated FDA approval of this regimen.
