Long-term outcome and relapse patterns in Ewing sarcoma patients with extensive lung/ pleural metastases after a complete response to systemic therapy

Ewing sarcoma (ES) is sensitive to systemic therapy, including chemotherapy and anti-angiogenesis Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors(aaTKIs). However, the prognosis of patients with metastatic disease remains poor. Recurrence or distant metastasis after a complete response (CR) or near-CR due to systemic therapy is not rare.
