Research Abstract |
Clear cell sarcoma (CCS) of tendons and aponeuroses is a rare malignant tumor of poor prognosis,with a predilection for youngadults.Although the standard treatment is still wide surgical resection, neither chemotherapy norradiotherapy is effective. Therefore, clearly new therapeutic strategies are required. Recently, boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) with the use of p-boronophenylalanine (BPA) for malignant melanoma has provided good results. BecauseBPA is requisite for the production of melanin, boron is finally accumulated in tumor cells. CCS also produces melanin, and with the use of a cultured human CCS cell line andthrough human CCS-bearing animal studies, we have shown that the high accumulation of 10B is potentially favorable in BNCT. Therefore, we evaluated the short-term efficacy of BNCT for CCS with the use of human CCS cell line-bearing nude mice and have here, for thefirst time, demonstrated that BNCT is a potentially new option for the treatment of human CCS.
