The treatment options 2018
• Chemotherapy provides symptom relief and increased OS

• The combination of cisplatin and anti-folate is standard
   • 80% of tumors recur after 2 years
   • Median OS is 16 – 18.8 months

• Multimodality studies use:
   • neoadjuvant chemotherapy
   • extrapleural pneumonectomy or pleurectomy/decortication
   • with or without RT

  Background:
  Tumor cells require Arginine for cell division.
  Sarcomatoid tumors lack ASS1
  With ADI-PEG20 the blood is depleted from Arginine and
  tumor cells will die.
