Efficacy of Large Use of Combined Hypofractionated Radiotherapy in a Cohort of Anti-PD-1 Monotherapy-Treated Melanoma Patients.

To assess the role of radiotherapy in anti-PD-1-treated melanoma patients, we studied retrospectively a cohort of 206 consecutive anti-PD-1 monotherapy-treated advanced melanoma patients (59% M1c/d, 50% ≥ 3 metastasis sites, 33% ECOG PS ≥ 1, 33% > 1st line, 32% elevated serum LDH) having widely (49%) received concurrent radiotherapy, with RECIST 1.1 evaluation of radiated and non-radiated lesions. Overall (OS) and progression-free (PFS) survivals were calculated using Kaplan−Meier.

Breast-conserving therapy can be offered to women with prior breast augmentation.

Introduction: Breast cancer in women with cosmetic breast implants is increasingly common. Over the past decade, there has been a push for mastectomy and reconstruction in these patients, based on a fear of poor aesthetic results from small breast volume, and radiation-induced capsular contracture. At the Paris Breast Centre, augmented women routinely undergo lumpectomy with whole-breast irradiation (BCT).

Efficacy of late concurrent hypofractionated radiotherapy in advanced melanoma patients failing anti-PD-1 monotherapy.

Advanced melanoma patients who failed anti-PD-1 therapy have limited options. We analyzed a cohort of 133 advanced melanoma patients receiving anti-PD-1 monotherapy in a referral center between April 2015 and December 2017, and included the 26 patients with confirmed progressive (PD) or stable disease who received additional radiotherapy with an unmodified anti-PD-1 mAb regimen. Tumor evaluations were done on radiated and nonradiated (RECIST 1.

Percutaneous Thermal Ablation of Breast Cancer Metastases in Oligometastatic Patients.

Objective: To evaluate prognostic factors associated with local control and disease-free-survival (DFS) of oligometastatic breast cancer patients treated by percutaneous thermal ablation (PTA).

Materials And Methods: Seventy-nine consecutive patients (54.5 ± 11.

Artificial Ascites for Pain Relief During Microwave Ablation of Subcapsular Liver Tumors.

Purpose: To compare post-procedure pain of subcapsular hepatic metastasis treated with microwave ablation (MWA) with and without artificial ascites.

Materials And Methods: During a 2-years period, 41 patients underwent MWA of 52 peripheral liver metastases including 20 patients (10 men and 10 women (mean ± SD age: 62 ± 9.3 years) who underwent MWA of 27 metastasis without artificial ascites (group 1), and 21 patients (12 men and 9 women (mean age: 63.
