To improve the plating efficiency (PE) of cells used in the standard human tumor clonogenic assay (standard HTCA), an HTCA was developed using single-cell suspensions obtained from short-term cultures of surgical specimens of malignant bone and soft tissue tumors of the extremities. Consequently, the percentage possibility of application for the chemosensitivity test for anticancer drugs as well as the PE improved from 29.7% to 65.7% for bone tumors (37 specimens) and from 30.0% to 72.4% for soft tissue tumors (31 specimens). In bone tumors the correlation between these drug sensitivity tests and the clinical effectiveness of the drugs was retrospectively evaluated in 17 specimens from 13 cases mainly of osteosarcoma; they were well correlated with the true positive rate (71.0%) and the true negative rate (90%). In soft tissue sarcomas, retrospective evaluations were possible only in 9 cases and their true positive and negative rated were 75.0% and 100% respectively. These results indicate that cultivated HTCA seemed to be a clinically useful chemosensitivity test: the anticancer drugs judged useless by this test were likely to be clinically useless. Drugs such as resistance-acquired or non-sensitive drugs should be excluded from multidrug combination chemotherapy in the treatment of bone and soft tissue sarcoma.
