Effect of time interval between surgery and the initiation of adjuvant therapy on the oncologic outcomes of early-stage endometrial cancer.

Objective: To identify the impact of time interval between surgery and initial adjuvant radiotherapy on oncologic outcomes in early-stage endometrial cancer.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included patients with stage I/II endometrial cancer who underwent surgical staging and adjuvant therapy at Songklanagarind Hospital from January 1, 2007, to December 31, 2017. Patients were categorized into two groups: TI <6 weeks and TI ≥6 weeks.

Prognostic factors for post-recurrence survival among patients with locally advanced cervical cancer who underwent definitive concurrent chemoradiation.

Background: The prognostic factors affecting post-recurrence survival (PRS) in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) who receive concurrent chemoradiation (CCRT) are not well established. This study aimed to assess the prognostic factors for PRS in patients with recurrent LACC who underwent CCRT as the primary treatment.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with a first recurrence of cervical cancer (stage IB2-IVA), who were initially treated with CCRT and completed the planned radiotherapy from 2002 to 2018.

Impact of chemotherapy cycles on oncological outcomes in elders with locally advanced cervical cancer treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy.

Introduction: To investigate the association between chemotherapy (CMT) cycles and oncological outcomes in elders with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) who treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT).

Methods: We retrospective studied 498 elders with LACC who treated with radiotherapy (RT) or CCRT between 2002 and 2018. Patients were divided into three groups: RT, CCRT with 1-4 and CCRT with 5-6 cycles of CMT.

Factors Influencing Job Retention and Quality of Life amongst Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Patients.

Objective: To evaluate the quality of life (QoL) amongst Thai nasopharyngeal cancer patients (NCP) and identify associated factors with QoL.

Methods: This study was based on secondary data from a cross-sectional study that aimed to develop the Thai version of functional assessment of cancer therapy with nasopharyngeal cancer subscale demographic data, clinical information of participants, and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy with Nasopharyngeal cancer subscale (FACT-NP) were utilized. Data were analyzed using Student's t-test, rank-sum test, variance analysis, and the Kruskal-Wallis test.

Tumor volume as a prognostic factor on the median survival in locally advanced oral cancer treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy.

Background: Surgery has been the mainstay treatment for oral cancer. Those patients, who do not receive surgery are generally treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). Many factors play a role in patients' survival; tumor volume might be one of those factors.
