Purpose No randomized trials have been conducted to directly compare radiotherapy (RT) with concomitant cisplatin (CDDP) versus cetuximab (CTX) as first-line treatment of locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma the head and neck. In this trial, we compared these two regimens in terms compliance, toxicity, efficacy. Patients Methods Eligible patients were randomly assigned a 1:1 ratio receive either CDDP 40 mg/m 2 once per week or CTX 400 loading dose followed by 250 radical RT. For primary...
The aim of the present study is to evaluate impact metastases-directed stereotactic body radiotherapy in two groups oligometastatic prostate cancer (PC) patients: oligorecurrent PC and oligoprogressive castration-resistant (oligo-CRPC). Inclusion criteria multicentre retrospective analysis were: (1) PC, defined as presence 1–3 lesions (bone or nodes) detected with choline positron emission tomography CT plus bone scan following biochemical recurrence; (2) oligo-CRPC, metastases after a...
Introduction We investigated the frequency of detection and prognostic predictive significance circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in patients with recurrent/metastatic (R/M) head neck carcinoma (HNC) before starting systemic therapy. Patients methods Using CellSearch technology, CTCs were assessed prospectively peripheral blood 53 R/M-HNC patients. performed spiking experiments to test diagnostic performance platform identifying squamous cells. Results identified 14 (26%) 22 (41%) at baseline...
Glutamine synthetase (GS) is an astrocytic enzyme catalyzing the conversion of glutamate and ammonia to glutamine. Its up-regulation has been related higher tumor proliferation poor prognosis in extra-cerebral tumors. We have previously reported a GS deficiency patients with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) who also developed epilepsy, which favorable prognostic factor glioma. Here, we investigated value expression GBM or without epilepsy its correlation survival. conducted clinical...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the pattern of care and outcomes for newly diagnosed glioblastoma in Italy compare our results with previous Italian Patterns Care study to determine whether significant changes occurred clinical practice during past 10 years. METHODS Clinical, pathological, therapeutic, survival data regarding 1059 patients treated 18 radiotherapy centers between 2002 2007 were collected retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS Most underwent both computed tomography magnetic resonance...
<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> The incidence of Oropharyngeal Squampus Cell Carcinoma (OPSCC) cases is increasing especially in the Western countries due to spreading human papilloma virus (HPV) infection. Radiological investigations, MRI particular, are used daily clinical practice stage OPSCC. aim this study was investigate association quantitative MR imaging features including diffusion-weighted and papillomavirus status oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. <h3>MATERIALS METHODS:</h3>...
In the randomized phase II REGOMA trial, regorafenib showed promising activity in patients with recurrent glioblastoma. We conducted a large, multicenter, prospective, observational study to confirm data real-world setting.
Purpose: Lymphomas are generally radiosensitive; therefore, disease volume tends to shrink during radiotherapy courses. As MRI-linac provides excellent soft tissue definition and allows daily re-contouring of gross tumor clinical target volume, its adoption could be beneficial for the treatment lymphomas. Nonetheless, at this time there is a lack literature regarding use MR-linac in context. Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted on patients affected by non-Hodgkin lymphoma...
