Clinical characteristics of brain metastases from lung cancer according to histological type: Pretreatment evaluation and survival following whole-brain radiotherapy
The histological type of lung cancer in patients with brain metastases may affect response to treatment and survival. We evaluated the clinical characteristics of brain metastases from lung cancer according to histological type in 70 consecutive patients with brain metastases from histologically confirmed lung cancer, who had been previously treated with whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT). Histolo...
متن کاملPooled analysis of S-1 trials in non-small cell lung cancer according to histological type.
BACKGROUND The antimetabolic agent S-1 inhibits thymidylate synthase similar to pemetrexed, but through a different mechanism of action. Whether the antitumour activity of S-1 depends on histological type remains unclear. We analysed pooled data from 2 phase II clinical studies of cisplatin and S-1 in patients with previously untreated advanced non-small cell lung cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS...
متن کاملSite-specific survival rates for cancer of unknown primary according to location of metastases.
Cancer of unknown primary (CUP) is diagnosed at the metastatic stage and despite extensive diagnostic work-up the primary tumor often remains unidentified. Limited population-based survival data are available for metastatic location and none are available that link the location with the cause of death, which might give clues about the tissue-of-origin. A total of 9,306 CUP patients with extrano...
متن کاملChanging patterns of lung cancer incidence by histological type.
Using data from five registries covering 7% of the U.S. population, we investigated lung carcinoma incidence trends from 1969-86 by histological type, sex, race, age, calendar time period, and cohort year of birth. Among white men, squamous cell carcinoma was the most frequent histological type, but by the mid-1980s the age-adjusted rates were decreasing while rates of adenocarcinoma and small ...
متن کاملHistological classification of lung cancer.
In 1924, when lung cancer was an uncommon disease , Marchesani proposed a classification of lung cancer into four histological groups. This was later expanded in the World Health Organisation's his-tological classification of lung tumours of 1967.' Further modification was found necessary and a second edition was produced by the WHO in 1981.2 This includes, under the heading "Malignant epitheli...
