RESUMO
Anti-angiogenesis-targeted drugs, especially anti-angiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitors (aa-TKIs), are broadly used in the treatment of advanced bone and soft tissue sarcoma. The antitumor effects of Chinese domestically developed aa-TKIs, such as apatinib and anlotinib, were also demonstrated in several single-center or multi-center clinical studies. However, treatment-related adverse events (AEs) have limited the use of aa-TKIs. On Aug 30, 2019, the members of the Chinese Sarcoma Study Group conducted a thorough discussion on this issue and reached a consensus, focusing on the classification and treatment of common AEs that may occur during the use of aa-TKIs. The aim of this article is to improve our understanding and provide AE management guidance for clinicians as well as benefit patients using aa-TKIs.
