Cryosurgery in Treating Patients With Soft Tissue Sarcoma

Stopped early · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Sarcoma

In brief

RATIONALE: Cryosurgery kills cancer cells by freezing them. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining cryosurgery with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of cryosurgery with or without chemotherapy in treating patients who have soft tissue sarcoma.
