ChemotherapyVoicePreservationLocalControlPurpose: To compare concurrent chemoradiotherapy with radiotherapy in T2N0 glottic cancer. Materials and Methods: Thirty nine patients were treated with radiotherapy alone. In detail, 30 patients treated between 1985 and 1995, and 9 patients treated between 1995 and...

Conclusion: The association of carbogen and nicotinamide with radiotherapy is feasible, but tolerable only in 51.5% of patients with GBM. Carbogen and nicotinamide did not appear to modify the evolution of glioblastoma. 展开 关键词: Carbogen Nicotinamide Radiotherapy Intra-arterial chemotherapy ...
Chemotherapy has been shown to be effective for rhabdomyosarcoma [4]. Total radiotherapy dosage is usually 60 Gy, with the limiting structures being the optic nerve and brain [19]. Most failures after radiotherapy occur at the basicranium, either in the surgical bed or in a contiguous site [...
6, 7, 8 In the treatment of germ cell tumors, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are the mainstay of treatment with the addition of surgical considerations for non-germinomatous germ cell tumors (NGGCT).9 Radiotherapy also often plays an important role in the treatment of recurrent or progressive ...
The value of EAPC equals 100 × (exp(β) − 1) and its 95% CI is attainable in the regression model. A gender difference ratio (GDR) was calculated to explore the disparity between men and women18. The GDR was defined as the ratio of the QCI score in women divided by ...
However, high-level evidence regarding the role of chemotherapy in stage II NPC with the use of IMRT is lacking. Cisplatin-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy increases severe acute hematological and nonhematological toxicities.2-4 It also increases critical weight loss during radiotherapy, which is ...
Patient demographics, HIV status, tumour stage, radiotherapy and chemotherapy details, treatment response, subsequent relapse and last follow up date were obtained from patient case notes. Pathology review and immunohistochemical staining Formalin fixed paraffin embedded samples were obtained under anonymous ...
Timing of combined radiation therapy and chemotherapy can include, first, chemotherapy followed by radiation therapy given with the main goal of addressing the issue of micrometastasis control and local or regional tumor decrease or downstaging, as well as using reduced irradiation fields, thus decreas...
Radiotherapy (RT) is delivered for purposes of local control, but can also exert systemic effect on remote and non-irradiated tumor deposits, which is called abscopal effect. The view of RT as a simple local treatment has dramatically changed in recent years, and it is now widely accepted th...
