Ifosfamide, Carboplatin, and Etoposide as Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Patients With Neurofibromatosis Type I-related Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors
In this study, we achieved more favorable outcomes than those in previous studies. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy, which included the ICE regimen, not only resulted in tumor shrinkage in eight of 12 cases but also demonstrated a good prognosis when tumor shrinkage was achieved. These findings suggest that neoadjuvant chemotherapy with the ICE regimen may be a promising approach for managing NF1-MPNST.
