Most of the chemosensitivity/chemoresistance testing companies have a list of chemotherapy agents that they test sarcomas for.  ADD THE FOLLOWING TO THEIR LIST if it is possible.  <b>This is not an exhaustive list, but a place to start from.  </b>

<B>Gemcitabine
Navelbine
Temozolomide and/or Dacarbazine
Gemcitabine & Taxotere
Navelbine & Taxotere,
Doxorubicin [Adriamycin]
Ifosfamide
Taxotere
Alpha Interferon
Vinblastine
Etoposide
ET-743  
Cisplatin</b>

An argument can be made for cost/benefit analysis if your insurance company does not routinely pay for it.  Omitting the use of a drug that the tumor is highly resistant to offsets the cost of the chemo testing.  Even inexpensive drugs require chemo cycles with drugs and other fees and scans to see if they are working.
