Objective: To investigate the use and the efficacy of bronchial artery chemoembolization combined with 125I seed implantation in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) therapy based on the medical database.

Methods: A total of 102 patients with advanced NSCLC were randomly divided into two groups. The control group was treated with 125I seed implantation, and the observation group was treated with bronchial artery chemoembolization (BACE) combined with 125I seed implantation based on medical database. The clinical efficacy, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), cytokeratin 19 fragment antigen 21-1 (CYFRA21-1), glycan antigen 125 (CA125), peripheral blood CD3+, CD8+, CD4+/CD8+ T cells, insulin-like growth factor type 1 receptor (IGF-1R), S100 calcium-binding protein A2 (S100A2), long-term efficacy (time to disease progression, six-month survival rate, and one-year survival rate), and safety were then analyzed.

Result: The disease remission rate in the observation group was 62.75%, which was higher than that in the control group (41.18%). After 1 month and 3 months of treatment, the levels of serum CYFRA21-1, CEA, CA125, and IGF-1R were lower, while serum S100A2 was higher in the observation group than in the control group ( < 0.05). For safety assessment, we found that the incidences of neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and gastrointestinal reactions had no statistical differences between two groups. The time to disease progression in the observation group was 129.85 d longer than that in the control group, 89.74 d, and the six-month survival rate and 1-year survival rate were higher in the observation group relative to the control group.

Conclusion: Medical database-based BACE combined with 125I seed implantation in the therapy of advanced NSCLC patients has definite efficacy with certain safety, which can enhance antitumor effect and prolong survival rate in advanced NSCLC patients.

Article Synopsis
  • The study retrospectively evaluated the effectiveness of ultra-low dose rate brachytherapy (uLDR-BT) in 39 patients with unfavorable intermediate risk prostate cancer, despite current guidelines recommending against it due to insufficient evidence.
  • Results showed a promising median follow-up of about 56 months, with an 87.02% biochemical failure-free survival rate, indicating uLDR-BT could be a viable treatment option.
  • No significant differences in outcomes were observed based on additional risk factors or treatment methods, suggesting that uLDR-BT's effectiveness is consistent across different patient profiles in the intermediate risk category.

Background: Hepatogastric fistula (HGF) is an uncommon occurrence that can be associated with various medical conditions. The primary causes typically involve peptic ulcer disease, infections (such as pyogenic, amoebic or tuberculosis), or iatrogenic factors (like post transarterial chemoembolization or radiotherapy). Massive gastrointestinal hemorrhage following HGF is extremely rare, with iodine-125 (I) seed migration to the stomach through HGF not previously documented.

Radioactive iodine-125 (I) seed implantation, a brachytherapy technique, effectively kills tumor cells via X-rays and gamma rays, serving as an alternative therapeutic option following the failure of frontline treatments for various solid tumors. However, tumor radioresistance limits its efficacy. Hydrogen gas has anticancer properties and can enhance the efficacy of immunotherapy.

Background: The treatment of recurrent tracheal adenoid cystic carcinoma (TACC), a rare pulmonary malignant tumor, typically involves bronchoscopic interventional therapy for patients ineligible for surgery or external radiotherapy. This report describes an innovative treatment approach for TACC, initially managed with interventional bronchoscopy and subsequently with a Y-shaped airway stent loaded with I seeds, following recurrence after 2 years.

Case Presentation: A 50-year-old man presented with intermittent coughing for 2 months and was admitted to the hospital after the discovery of TACC a month earlier.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and iodine-125 (125I) seed implantation (TACE-RFA-125I) for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after hepatectomy.

Methods: The study retrospectively analyzed patients with recurrent HCC who received TACE-RFA-125I or TACE-RFA treatment in our institution between January 2013 and January 2023. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and recurrence were compared between the two groups.
