Hello Saskia ,
Good to know there is a plan to remove the primary .
As ASPS is so incredibly vascular make sure that you consult a sarcoma surgeon .
Also along with helping to “normalize “ the unregulated mass of tumor, the TKI can cause bleeding problems as it is an anti-vascular medicine . So the planning for needs to include going off the tki.
Also as renal cell carcinoma , one of the cancers using cometriq , has a lot of similarities to ASPS in how and where it metastasizes I suspect it truly could help in the lungs and primary . Time will tell.
I assume you mean radiation to the primary when you say radiation and Tki?
