Doxorubicin monotherapy is the standard first-line treatment in patients with advanced soft-tissue sarcomas. Ifosfamide still remains the standard 2nd line treatment after doxorubicin-failure. ⋯ Trabectedine should be used preferentially in myxoid liposarcomas and leiomyosarcomas patients whereas paclitaxel should be considered as a first or second-line treatment of choice in angiosarcoma patients. Further studies are needed in order to identify predictive factors of clinical benefit in advanced soft-tissue sarcoma patients treated with cytotoxic agents in combination or not with targeted therapies.
