Prospective Study Evaluating the Treatment Outcomes for Localised Recurrent, Resectable Retroperitoneal Liposarcoma

The aim of the study is to collect prospective data on the treatment outcomes in patients with first localized, resectable recurrent retroperitoneal well-differentiated and/or dedifferentiated liposarcoma undergoing curative intent treatment. Patients enrolled in this study will form a validation cohort of the TARPSWG recurrent RPS nomogram. The treatment decision (surgery alone, or preoperative RT +/- chemotherapy followed by surgery) is per the institutional multidisciplinary team recommendation.

This study is collecting participant data prospectively from hospital medical records. Participant details regarding diagnosis, treatments, outcomes, complications and survival status will be captured after patients are enrolled into the study and at specific time points though out the study. Participants will also be asked to complete quality of life questionnaires called the EORTC QLQ-C30 and the OLO-STO22 at 4 or 5 different time points which will take 15-20 minutes to complete. The overall duration of observation is from time of enrolment for 5 years.
