Study Overview
Brief Summary
To investigate the safety and efficacy of preoperative IMRT and concurrent Apatinib for primary truncal or extremity soft tissue sarcoma; To investigate the Quality of life and extremity function post-combination treatment; To study the mechanism of radio-sensitizing effects of Apatinib for primary truncal or extremity soft tissue sarcoma; To assess the relationship between the MRI imaging, pathological findings and local control.

Arms & Interventions
Apatinib arm
Apatinib 500mg QD, used 2 weeks prior to IMRT, concurrent with pre-operative IMRT, and 1 month after end of IMRT
Intervention: Apatinib Mesylate (Drug)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Rate of Major wound complications within 4 months post-surgery
Time Frame: 4-months post-surgery
Secondary Outcomes
- Extremity function scores(From date of enrollment to 2 years after surgery, specifically at pre-IMRT, end of IMRT, 1 months post-IMRT, and every 3 to 6 months during follow-up up to 2 years post-surgery)
- Local control(2-year)
- Acute and late toxicities(acute toxicities were evaluated during and 3 months after IMRT, late toxicities were evaluted after 6 months)
- Patient-reported Quality of Life assessed by EORTC-QLQ-C30 questionnaire(From date of enrollment to 2 years after surgery, specifically at pre-IMRT, end of IMRT, 1 months post-IMRT, and every 3 to 6 months during follow-up up to 2 years post-surgery)
- Pathological remission rate(2 weeks after operation)
- Overall survival(2-year)
