36 Areas to Improve in the Systemic Therapy for Chondrosarcoma Better method to evaluate treatment efficacy RECIST may not be the best method Degree of differentiation after treatment Growth modulation index The role of cancer immunology in bone sarcomas PD-1/PD-L1 is not the answer What is the sweet spot for chondrosarcoma with IDH mutations Single agent may not be the answer in solid tumors

37 Summary Chemotherapy may provide some benefits in specific subtypes of chondrosarcoma (CS). Molecular targeted agents although provided preclinical anti-tumor activity, clinical studies results were inconsistent or still pending. The best way to reach clinical benefit through drug combinations remains to be eluted. How to accurately assess treatment efficacy and identify molecular or immune targets is crucial in the development of new therapeutics in CS.
