Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The current treatments for bone tumors and soft tissue tumors include surgical therapy, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. Although intensive chemotherapy and the establishment of surgical procedures have improved the outcomes of patients with bone and soft tissue tumors, the current rate of recurrent and metastatic sarcomas remains unsatisfactory. New therapeutic technologies have been investigated as an alternative approach to overcome the limitations of the currently employed strategies. This Special Issue aims to gather original research and review articles focused on molecular basic research for bone tumors and soft tissue tumors. This issue also invites novel discoveries, approaches, and technical developments related to bone tumors and soft tissue tumors, including tumor-on-a-chip strategies.
