In general, systemic treatment for KS is limited to widespread, symptomatic disease, whereas local interventions are indicated for minimal, cosmetically troublesome lesions, and the identification of a novel γ-herpesvirus, human herpesvirus-8, as a causative agent for KS, together with novel antiangiogenic compounds, may offer promising targets for the therapy of KS.

Recommendations include a standardized format for documenting the extent of KS on initial and subsequent evaluations, response definitions that include assessments of lesion nodularity and tumor-associated edema in addition to more traditional methods for evaluating tumor response, and a new staging system that includes extent of tumor, immune status, and other AIDS-related disease manifestations.
