Article Synopsis
  • Recent advancements in treating advanced cervical cancer now include immunotherapy options like pembrolizumab for patients with PD-L1 positive tumors, as well as the availability of generic bevacizumab alongside traditional chemotherapy.
  • Cemiplimab can also be prescribed for patients who relapse after platinum-based treatments and haven't received immunotherapy, regardless of PD-L1 status.
  • A thorough pre-treatment evaluation using imaging and PD-L1 status is essential for determining treatment eligibility, and multidisciplinary discussions are encouraged for tailored locoregional care, while early supportive care and clinical trial participation are advised.

Liver stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is a local treatment that provides good local control and low toxicity. We present the first clinical results from our prospective registry of stereotactic MR-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) for liver metastases. All patients treated for liver metastases were included in this prospective registry study.

Stereotactic MR-guided Radiotherapy (MRgRT) is an interesting treatment option for adrenal gland metastases (AGM). We reviewed data from 12 consecutive patients treated with MRgRT for an AGM in our center between 14 November 2019 and 17 August 2021. Endpoints were tolerance assessment, the impact of adaptive treatment on target volume coverage and organs at risk (OAR) sparing, local control (LC), and overall survival (OS).

Purpose: The outcome of locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) is dismal. Biomarkers are needed to individualize treatments and to improve patient outcomes. Here, we investigated whether coexpression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3) could be an outcome prognostic biomarker, and whether targeting both EGFR and HER3 with a dual antibody (MEHD7945A) enhanced ionizing radiation (IR) efficacy.

Background And Purpose: To assess the long-term outcomes of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the anal canal (SCCAC) treated with Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT).

Material And Methods: From 2007 to 2015, 193 patients were treated by IMRT for SCCAC. Radiotherapy delivered 45 Gy in 1.

Purpose: Dose escalation for prostate cancer can be achieved with a combination of external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) and brachytherapy (BT) boost to increase local control. For high-dose-rate (HDR)-BT, optimal fractionation remains under debate. The objective was to assess the clinical outcome of three schemes of HDR-BT boost.
