Clinical parameters predicting pathologic complete response following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for rectal cancer.
INTRODUCTION Preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT), followed by total mesorectal excision, has become the standard of care for patients with clinical stages II and III rectal cancer. Patients with pathologic complete response (pCR) to preoperative CRT have been reported to have better outcomes than those without pCR. However, the factors that predict the response to neoadjuvant CRT have not been...
متن کاملPositron emission tomography for predicting pathologic response after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced rectal cancer.
PURPOSE To investigate whether before and after chemoradiotherapy (CRT) positron emission tomography (PET) predict for pathologic response after preoperative CRT in patients with locally advanced rectal adenocarcinoma. METHODS Thirty-five patients who underwent pre-CRT and post-CRT PET scans before surgery were included. All patients were staged with endoscopic ultrasound or high resolution C...
متن کاملClinical parameters model for predicting pathologic complete response following preoperative chemoradiation in patients with esophageal cancer.
BACKGROUND Approximately 25% of patients with esophageal cancer (EC) who undergo preoperative chemoradiation, achieve a pathologic complete response (pathCR). We hypothesized that a model based on clinical parameters could predict pathCR with a high (≥60%) probability. PATIENTS AND METHODS We analyzed 322 patients with EC who underwent preoperative chemoradiation. All the patients had baselin...
متن کاملComparison of 5FU-base Chemoradiation with and without Eloxatin on Pathologic Complete Response in Neoadjuvant Chemoradiation of Rectal cancer
Background and Objectives: To compare pathologic complete response (pCR) in patients with advanced rectal cancer receiving neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACT) by 5-FU or Xeloda (capecitabine) with and without Eloxatin (oxaloplatin injection). Materials and Methods: Seventy-five consecutive patients with the diagnosis of advanced rectal adenocarcinoma were included. Two basic chemotherapy r...
متن کاملComplete Pathologic Response Following Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy and High- Dose-Rate Brachytherapy for Locally Advanced Endometrial Carcinoma
The majority of uterine cancers present at an early stage because of abnormal post-menopausal bleeding. Locally advanced endometrial carcinoma with extension to the parametria represents a rare subset of patients with treatment options involving neoadjuvant therapy followed by extrafascial hysterectomy or definitive non-operative management. Neoadjuvant therapy enables R0 resection in the major...
