The current study describes the clinicopathologic characteristics of 36 patients with lung carcinoma and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection observed within Italian Cooperative Group on AIDS Tumors (GICAT).Patients HIV collected by GICAT between 1986-1998 were evaluated retrospectively. As a control group, authors analyzed 102 age < 60 years but without who seen at CRO, National Cancer Institute, Aviano, Italy 1995-1996.Patients younger (38 vs. 53 years) previously smoked more...
Background: The Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) is a parameter of nutritional and inflammation status related to toxicity in cancer treatment. Since data for head neck are scanty, this study aims investigate the association between PNI acute late malignancy. Methods: A retrospective cohort 179 patients treated with definitive radiotherapy induction/concurrent chemotherapy was followed-up (median follow-up: 38 months) vital 2010 2017. calculated according Onodera formula low/high levels...
Radiotherapy (RT) has a remarkable success rate in the treatment of patients with glottic carcinoma. The objectives current study were to assess results group consecutive comparable characteristics who treated RT (6-megavolt photon linear accelerator) and determine prognostic factors that may influence local control early-stage impact on tobacco smoking second primary malignancies also was investigated.Four hundred ten T1-T2 squamous cell carcinoma glottis between 1986 2001 analyzed...
Evidence of an increased diagnostic pressure on thyroid has emerged over the past decades. This study aimed to provide estimates a wide spectrum surveillance indicators for dysfunctions and diseases in Italy.
Abstract Aim To evaluate the role of baseline neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) as prognostic marker in squamous cell carcinoma oropharynx (OPC) treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) era HPV status. Patients and methods A retrospective analysis 125 patients (pts) affected locally advanced OPC was performed. Inclusion criteria were age >18 years, stage III or IV (TNM 7th ed.) CRT. Haematological for their independent biomarkers progression‐free survival (PFS) overall (OS)....
The incidence of thyroid disease is generally increasing, and it subject to major geographic variability, between within countries. Moreover, the rates proportion overdiagnosis for cancer in Italy are among highest worldwide. This study aimed estimate population-based frequency trends thyroidectomies by type surgical procedure (total/partial), indication (tumors/other conditions), sex, age, geographical region.
Abstract From January 1980 to May 1991, 28 patients with intraocular metastases were seen at our Institute. Three presented bilateral and two developed contralateral involvement. Out of the 33 ocular 27 managed by radiotherapy. The most common primary tumour sites breast (18/28 patients) lung (3/28). 22 treated an 8 MV linear accelerator, using a 4 × cm anterior direct field. median dose was 40 Gy/20 fractions (range Gy/14 50 Gy/25 fractions). Of treatments reported, 16 resulted in complete...
Fluconazole is recommended in the prophylaxis of oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC) patients undergoing radiotherapy for head-neck tumours; however, actual effectiveness fluconazole this setting remains unclear. Adult with cervico-cephalic carcinoma submitted to radical or adjuvant were randomized 100 mg (n = 138) matched placebo 132) oral suspension once daily from sixth session up end treatment. The final analysis investigation showed a higher rate OPC outbreak-free survival compared (P 0.008...
Objective: To evaluate whether plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) was related to clinical outcome in inoperable stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients undergoing stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT).Materials and methods: Plasma cfDNA assessed at baseline, before the last day 45 days after end of SBRT, 22 NSCLC patients. Twenty-two healthy controls were also evaluated.Results: higher than controls. An association with unfavourable disease-free survival found for continuous baseline...
Concurrent chemo-radiotherapy is demonstrately superior to sequential in the treatment of advanced Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer not suitable for surgery. Docetaxel considered enhance cytotoxic effect radiotherapy on tumour cells. Tomotherapy (HT) a novel radiotherapeutic technique, which allows delivery Image Guided-IMRT (IG-IMRT), with highly conformal radiation dose distribution. The goal study was estimate tolerability concurrent IMRT and find maximum tolerated weekly delivered HT after...
