Abstract

Soft tissue sarcoma is a heterogeneous disease and treatment options are limited in advanced stage settings. Brivudine is a thymidine-nucleoside analog and inhibits DNA polymerase in VZV infection. We demonstrated a case of a patient who was diagnosed with both VZV infection and advanced stage sarcoma, and unexpected anti-tumoral response after brivudine therapy.
