*.- MECHANISTIC RATIONALE FOR COMBINING TRABECTEDIN WITH ANTI-IGF1R AGENTS IN EWING SARCOMA : EVIDENCES OF AN EFFECTIVE THERAPY .

Conclusion: We demonstrate that trabectedin may not only inhibit but also enhance the binding of EWS-FLI1 to some target genes. The up-regulation of IGF-1R after treatment with trabectedin provides the rationale for an effective combined therapy with anti-IGF-1R inhibitors.
