Abstract:
Background: External Beam Radiotherapy is essential in the management of locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC). Generally, VMAT is thought to achieve higher conformity to the Planned Target Volume (PTV) and better sparing of organs at risk (OAR) when compared to 3D-CRT. This study focused on these principles as it applied to treatment and potential toxicity in the management of LACC. Aim: To compare dosimetric parameters between VMAT and 3D-CRT in the management of LACC. Setting: The study analysed patients treated at Groote Schuur Hospital between May and December 2017.

The management of advanced cervical and ovarian cancers remains a significant challenge as many women fail to respond to recommended therapy, resulting in disease progression and ultimately patient death. Because of tumour heterogeneity, it is rare for all cancers of a particular type to respond to a specific therapy.

La chimiothérapie néoadjuvante (CNA) est utilisée dans les cancers du sein agressifs ou localement avancés (CS). Au delà des bénéfices cliniques, elle représente une opportunité pour monitorer in vivo la sensibilité d’une tumeur à un traitement.A partir de l’analyse de sets de données de patients traités par CNA, nous souhaitons identifier des mécanismes associes à la résistance ou sensibilité au traitement. Dans la première partie, nous avons évalué des paramètres, cliniques, anatomopathologiques et transcriptomiques. Nous avons démontré que des éléments non explorés comme la présence d’embol

Radical esophagectomy is still the mainstay for the resectable esophageal cancer, which provided the chance for long-term survival and better local control rate. However, the five-year survival is still low for esophagectomy, which is only 0~10%.

About 13,488 new cases of lung cancer were diagnosed in 2016 in Taiwan, of which 80%-85% were classified as non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Clinical trials show that immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as Nivolumab, Pembrolizumab and Atezolizumab, are effective treatment options for NSCLC patients. The objective of this analysis was to assess the cost-effectiveness of Nivolumab, Pembrolizumab and Atezolizumab compared with Docetaxel as the second-line treatment for pati

Abstract:
Introduction: Pre-treatment abnormal lateral lymph nodes (LLNs) are present in approximately 20% of patients with locally advanced rectal cancer. Western treatment of LLNs consists of neoadjuvant (chemo)radiotherapy (nCRT) followed by total mesorectal excision (TME), meaning these nodes are not removed surgically. There is, however, potential benefit in performing an additional lateral lymph node dissection (LLND) as enlarged LLNs have been shown to be predictive for local recurrence. Furthermore, the impact on oncological outcomes when enlarged LLNs harbour malignant features is currently unk

Materials and Methods: Seventy-four patients were retrospectively analyzed. Twenty-seven patients were treated with 5-FU (350 mg/m2 IV bolus) and leucovorin (20 mg/m2 IV bolus) for 5 days/week during week 1 and 5 of RT. Forty-seven patients were treated with capecitabine (850 mg/m2, twice daily for 5 days/week).

For locally advanced rectal cancer (T3-4 or N1-2), preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) has been demonstrated to achieve a lower local recurrence rate and good sphincter preservation rate.
