The article, titled "Diagnosis and Management of Dedifferentiated Liposarcoma: A Multidisciplinary Position Statement," is authored by the six Task Force members:
• Richard F. Riedel, MD, Associate Professor in the Division of Medical Oncology at Duke University Medical Center
• Candace L. Haddox, MD, Physician at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Instructor in Medicine at Harvard Medical School
• Elizabeth H. Baldini, MD, MPH, FASTRO, Professor of Radiation Oncology at Brigham and Women's Hospital, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and Harvard Medical School

The Task Force also held a live YouTube discussion (@i3Health on YouTube) in which they shared insights into the optimal diagnosis, treatment, and management of dedifferentiated liposarcoma for improving patient outcomes. In the position statement, they further delve into clinical presentations, the role of oncogenes in pathogenesis and prognosis, diagnostic approaches, and multidisciplinary team management, highlighting the roles of pathology, surgery, radiation, and systemic therapy.
"Taking a multidisciplinary approach is crucial in optimizing the care of patients with dedifferentiated liposarcoma," commented Dr. Riedel. "As treatment approaches become more refined, management has become increasingly nuanced, and collaboration between specialties is critical in addressing the complexities of this disease."
"Our hope for this position statement is that it will encourage the multidisciplinary team to collaborate to ensure optimal outcomes for their patients as the treatment landscape continues to expand," concluded Dr. Haddox.
