PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to evaluate the outcome of low-dose whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) with tumor bed boost after methotrexate-based chemotherapy in the management of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL). MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 64 patients with pathologically proven PCNSL between 2000 and 2011. Methotrexate-based chemotherapy with a medi...
gestational choriocarcinoma usually occurs following an intrauterine pregnancy. we report a case of metastatic choriocarcinoma to the left kidney and lungs with long term intermittent amenorrhea and vaginal bleeding after a normal vaginal delivery. a 43 year old rural woman presented with three years intermittent amenorrhea and vaginal bleeding following normal vaginal delivery. she also compla...
Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a relatively rare form of extra-nodal non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma that accounts for approximately 4% of primary central nervous system tumors. Treatment with high-dose methotrexate-based chemotherapeutic regimens have resulted in response rates of 60-70% or higher and long-term survival in 15-30% of patients. – 4 While PCNSL is sensitive to radiatio...
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents. The present study investigated the expression of Cytochrome P-450 (CYP) genes: CYP1A2, CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 by qRT-PCR in 135 specimens obtained from OS patients, including biopsy (pre-chemotherapy), tumor resected in surgery (post-chemotherapy), adjacent bone to tumor (nonmalignant tissue), pulmonary metastasis...
OBJECTIVE To determine the effectiveness of 2 standard chemotherapy regimens for low-risk gestational trophoblastic disease according to the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging system. METHODS From 2008 until 2010, 75 women with low-risk gestational trophoblastic disease received either pulsed actinomycin D (n=50) or 5-day methotrexate (n=25). The primary remi...
Metastatic gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) is an uncommon cancer. The principal treatment consists of chemotherapy with or without surgery or radiotherapy. We here retrospectively reviewed the outcomes of metastatic GTN treated at our institute between January, 1999 and December, 2013. Sixty-three patients met the criteria. The median age was 30.0 years and almost 90% were referral ca...
BACKGROUND We conducted a phase II study to evaluate in 72 adult patients the efficacy of the intensive LMB chemotherapy regimen, previously reported by the Société Française d'Oncologie Pédiatrique for children with Burkitt lymphoma and L3 acute lymphoblastic leukemia. PATIENTS AND METHODS Treatment began with a prephase (low-dose steroids, vincristine and cyclophosphamide), except in patien...
Two infants with familial erythrophagocytic reticulosis attained a durable complete remission after combination chemotherapy including intrathecal methotrexate. Though both later died, neither child had definitive evidence of tumour at necropsy.
PURPOSE Primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) is confined to the CNS and/or the eyes at presentation and is usually initially treated with intravenous methotrexate-based chemotherapy and whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT). However, the intact blood-brain barrier (BBB) can limit diffusion of methotrexate into brain and tumor. With BBB disruption (BBBD), enhanced drug delivery to the tumor can be achieved. P...
As the geriatric population is growing, it is increasingly important to be familiar with chemotherapy for the elderly. Age-related changes in pharmacokinetics are documented for doxorubicin, etoposide, ifosfamide, daunorubicin, mitomycin, cisplatin and methotrexate. The hematological toxicity of most standard-dose chemotherapy is not affected by age in patients with normal organic functions and...
