Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are uncommon and their frequency is regionally heterogeneous. Several studies have been conducted to evaluate the clinical features treatment outcomes of this disease entity, but majority these were in limited areas, making it difficult comprehensively analyze relative features. Furthermore, no consensus for PTCLs has established. Therefore, we an Asia-specific study understand assess treatments Asian patients.We performed a multinational, multicenter,...
Lymphocyte recovery after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) has been shown to be associated with positive clinical outcome in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). This study sought identify variables that affect lymphocyte and survival ASCT.A retrospective analysis of outcomes 97 consecutive patients NHL who underwent ASCT a single center from August 1999 January 2008 was conducted.A significant relationship not observed between infused count days absolute 500 x 10(6)/L or greater...
<b><i>Objective:</i></b> The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between efficacy first-line cytotoxic chemotherapy plus bevacizumab and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) angiogenic genes in patients with advanced colorectal cancer (CRC). <b><i>Methods:</i></b> DNA extracted from blood samples 125 patients, 12 SNPs were evaluated for objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall (OS)....
Colorectal cancer is associated with different anatomical, biological, and clinical characteristics. We determined the impact of primary tumor location in patients metastatic colorectal (mCRC).Demographic data information were collected from 1,115 Republic Korea, who presented mCRC between January 2009 December 2011, using web-based electronic case report forms. Associations patient's characteristics assessed, factors inf luencing overall survival analyzed Cox proportional hazards regression...
<i>Objective:</i> This study evaluated the clinical relevance of <i>KRAS </i>and<i> BRAF </i>mutational status in 66 irinotecan-refrac- tory Korean metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients treated with cetuximab-plus-irinotecan-based chemotherapy. <i>Methods:</i> A total irinotecan-refractory mCRC chemotherapy were included. Tumors screened for </i>mutations (codons 12 and 13) a <i>BRAF</i> mutation (V600E) using direct...
Abstract Background Extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) is rare. There are no standard treatments due to its rarity and few clinical trials. Methods The objective of this multicenter study was investigate treatment outcomes Korean patients with advanced/metastatic EMPD. Data were collected retrospectively from 14 institutions participating in Cancer Study Group (KCSG) Rare Committee. Results A total 37 identified. Of these patients, 6 received locoregional therapy as a first‐line treatment....
<i>Aim:</i> We investigated the efficacy and safety of S-1 monotherapy for treatment advanced biliary tract adenocarcinoma (BTA) in a clinical practice setting. <i>Methods:</i> reviewed data from 217 patients with BTA who were treated between August 2004 September 2007. <i>Results:</i> 162 eligible identified. The primary tumors intrahepatic (n = 57), gall bladder 50), extrahepatic bile ducts 41) ampulla Vater 14). Sixteen 120 assessable achieved partial...
Paragonimiasis typically results from the consumption of raw or improperly cooked crustacea, especially crabs and crayfish. Although previously endemic in Korea, prevalence this disease decreased early 1970s because educational campaigns fewer intermediate hosts as a result ecological changes. Recently, we were presented with family where all members infected Paragonimus after ingestion Kejang (= drunken crab). The mother was hospitalized for general myalgia weakness first, followed by...
For advanced cancers of the bile duct, gallbladder and ampulla Vater, there are only a few treatment options. We explored efficacy combination gemcitabine, 5-fluorouracil cisplatin for biliary cancers.From September 2003 to April 2010, 28 patients with recurrent or metastatic tract cancer were enrolled. A regimen consisting gemcitabine (800 mg/m² at fixed dose rate on days 1 8), (1 g/m²/day continuous infusion 4 days) (60 day 2) was repeated every 3 weeks.One (3.6%) patient showed complete...
Abstract The regional lymph node‐positive bladder cancer was classified as stage IV in the AJCC 7th edition but changed to IIIB 8th edition, revised 2018. Among various studies involving immune checkpoint inhibitors, groups that had only node metastasis showed better outcomes than those with distant metastasis. Therefore, it is necessary rethink treatment strategy for cancer. aim of this study compare chemotherapy, surgery, and combination therapy patients From 1 January 2010 31 December...
Background/Aims Rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone chemotherapy (R-CHOP) has improved survival in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) weakened the prognostic power of international index (IPI). We evaluated efficacy IPI revised (R-IPI) DLBCL who were treated R-CHOP, focusing on extranodal site number (ENS) because involvement occurs frequently Koreans. Methods A total 126 R-CHOP-treated stage III/IV analyzed. performed a retrospective...
Histiocytic sarcoma (HS) is a very rare neoplasm that often shows an aggressive clinical course and systemic symptoms, such as fever, weight loss, adenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly pancytopenia. It may present localized or disseminated disease. We describe here 63-yr-old male who manifested including loss generalized weakness. Abdominal chest computed tomography failed to show specific findings, but there was suspicion of multiple bony changes at the lumbar spine. Fusion whole body positron...
