How treatable is stage 4 soft tissue sarcoma?

A girl I know was just diagnosed with stage 4 soft tissue sarcoma and she's so young. Only 15 years old. Is this stage of cancer terminal, or is it definitely treatable?

Depending on the type of soft tissue sarcoma, there is about a 15% chance of survival at 5 years after diagnosis for stage 4.
I am not an expert, but generally they are poor responders.
