Re-Irradiation in Recurrent High-Grade Glioma
Background and Purpose: Despite the progress in treatment modalities such as neurosurgery and radiotherapy, almost all patients treated with malignant gliomas develop recurrent tumors and die of their disease. The aim of this study was to determine response, survival and treatment toxicities after reirradiation of relapsing primary malignant brain gliomas. Material and Methods: Twenty patients ...
متن کامل3D-image-guided high-dose-rate intracavitary brachytherapy for salvage treatment of locally persistent nasopharyngeal carcinoma
BACKGROUND To evaluate the therapeutic benefit of 3D-image-guided high-dose-rate intracavitary brachytherapy (3D-image-guided HDR-BT) used as a salvage treatment of intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in patients with locally persistent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). METHODS Thirty-two patients with locally persistent NPC after full dose of IMRT were evaluated retrospectively. 3D-im...
متن کاملRapidArc: Initial experience in high grade glioma
Background: Identify the optimal technique of radiotherapy for patients with high grade glioma. Our initial year of experience with RapidArc radiation therapy. Materials and Methods: Planning CT scans of 50 patients with grade IV glioma were reviewed and three plan sets by 3D Conformal Radiotherapy (3DCRT), Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) and Rapid Arc (RA) were generated and the plans ...
متن کاملRe-irradiation alternatives for recurrent high-grade glioma
Despite advances in the fields of surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, the prognosis for high-grade glioma (HGG) remains unsatisfactory. The majority of HGG patients experience disease recurrence. To date, no standard treatments have been established for recurrent HGG. Repeat surgery and chemotherapy demonstrate moderate efficacy. As recurrent lesions are usually located within the previousl...
متن کاملBevacizumab and dose-intense temozolomide in recurrent high-grade glioma.
BACKGROUND Angiogenesis inhibition is a rational treatment strategy for high-grade glioma (HGG). Combined antiangiogenic therapy and chemotherapy could be beneficial, taking advantage of different mechanisms of antitumour activity of both therapies. We carried out a phase I-II clinical trial with the combination of bevacizumab and continuous dose-intense temozolomide (TMZ) for patients with a r...
