Study Summary

This trial studies how to use patient-specific models to plan surgeries and rehabilitation treatments for people with pelvic sarcomas.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults who have or will undergo internal hemipelvectomy at UT MD Anderson Cancer Center to treat pelvic sarcomas. It's not for those with certain hip conditions, previous significant hip injuries/surgeries, recent surgeries affecting movement, pregnant/nursing women, or individuals with specific metal implants.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is developing personalized computational models to improve surgical planning and rehabilitation for better walking function after surgery in patients with pelvic sarcomas. It involves functional assessments and X-ray imaging to tailor treatment approaches.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the trial focuses on assessment and imaging rather than medication or invasive treatments, traditional side effects are not a primary concern. However, there may be minimal risks associated with exposure to radiation from X-rays.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
To establish the patient-specific computational models to inform surgical decisions and design custom implants that maximize post-surgery function.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Supportive care (walking function test, X-ray)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Patients undergo walking function assessment using optical motion capture and bi-plane dynamic X-ray imaging pre- and post-hemipelvectomy.
Group II: Retrospective GroupActive Control1 Intervention
Acquisition of pre- and post-operative MRI data of the pelvic region (when available) collected previously as part of standard clinical care Acquisition of pre-operative CT data of the pelvic region (when available) collected previously as part of standard clinical care Acquisition of Physical Therapy Assessment data collected previously by a physical therapist and/or physical therapist assistant under protocol PA12-1046
