Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of 25 Gy in 5 fractions (25 Gy/5#) prophylactic pelvic nodal irradiation for regional control during stereotactic radiation therapy (SBRT) for high-risk prostate cancer.
Methods And Materials: The multinational SHARP consortium database of patients treated with curative-intent prostate SBRT for high-risk prostate cancer was queried for prophylactic radiation therapy 25 Gy/5# to the pelvic lymph nodes. Details of Phoenix-defined biochemical failure and location of recurrence (local, regional, or distant) were extracted.
Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on improving the accuracy of pelvic intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for cervical cancer, which can sometimes miss its target due to variations in patient positioning and organ shapes.
- A phase 2 study involved 50 patients undergoing treated chemoradiotherapy with specific protocols for bladder and rectum filling, while utilizing adaptive image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) to adjust treatment plans based on daily imaging.
- Results showed significant variation in bladder volume between treatment sessions, with findings indicating that certain factors like chemotherapy sessions affect this variation, which underscores the importance of personalized treatment plans.
Purpose: To evaluate clinical outcomes of recurrent gynaecological cancers treated with reirradiation (reRT) using advanced brachytherapy (BT) technique.
Methods And Materials: Seventy-six women who underwent reRT with BT for gynaecological cancers at our institute between January 2000 and December 2019 were analysed to determine patient, disease and treatment characteristics and clinical outcomes. Descriptive analysis was used for demographics, and the Kaplan Meir method was used for survival analysis.
Purpose: Variations in the levels of systemic inflammatory biomarker levels have been linked with outcomes in various malignancies including cervical cancer. In this study, we investigated prognostic implications of pretreatment hematological factors/indices in locally advanced cervical cancers treated with radical radio(chemo)therapy.
Methods And Materials: Electronic medical records of 1051 patients with cervical cancer of FIGO (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics) stage IB2-IVA treated in various prospective trials at our institute between 2003 and 2017 were reviewed.
Purpose: To report the clinical outcomes in patients treated with Martinez universal perineal interstitial template (MUPIT)-based interstitial brachytherapy boost for primary and recurrent vault and vaginal cancers, and to perform a comparative analysis with our previously published series of similar patients.
Material And Methods: One hundred and seventeen patients treated between January, 2009 and December, 2015 were evaluated. Descriptive statistics for the patterns of relapse, local recurrence-free survival (LRFS), disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS), and late toxicities were carried out.
Aims: Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in low- and intermediate-risk prostate cancer has shown encouraging results. However, its use in high-risk patients is limited due to lack of data regarding adequate radiotherapy dose, need for pelvic nodal treatment and androgen deprivation therapy. Herein we report our experience of SBRT in this subgroup.
