Very early : Nothing is standard. Phone the folks at the National Cancer Institute and see if you can get into a study. Even if it does not help, you have advanced scientific knowledge for the next person.

Pazopanib: Combination chemotherapy with doxorubicin and ifosfamide is standard and efficacious. We use pazopanib in second line to target VEGFR, FGFR, PDGFR, and other proteins. Also many targeted immunotherapies are in trials: https://clinicaltrials.sylvester.org
