Efficacy of high dose radiotherapy in post-operative treatment of glioblastoma multiform--a single institution report.
BACKGROUND Glioblastoma multiform (GBM) is a highly aggressive tumor with median survival of approximately 14 months. Management consists of maximal surgical resection followed by post-operative chemoradiation with concurrent then adjuvant temozolamide. The standard radiotherapy dose is 60 Gy in 2-Gy fractions recommended by the radiation therapy oncology group (RTOG). With the vast majority of...
متن کاملDose distributions of high-precision radiotherapy treatment: A comparison between the CyberKnife and TrueBeam systems
Background: Several high-precision stereotactic radiation therapy modalities are currently used in clinical settings. We aimed to evaluate whether the CyberKnife (CK) or TrueBeam (TB) radiation treatment systems were more appropriate for treating targets of various morphologies according to the physical properties of each device. Materials and Methods: Spheres (diameter = 5–50 mm), as well as ...
متن کاملAxitinib Improves Radiotherapy in Murine Xenograft Lung Tumors
A third of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) present with un-resectable stage III locally advanced disease and are currently treated by chemo-radiotherapy but the median survival is only about 21months. Using an orthotopic xenograft model of lung carcinoma, we have investigated the combination of radiotherapy with the anti-angiogenic drug axitinib (AG-013736, Pfizer), which is a ...
متن کاملLow- versus high-dose radiotherapy for Graves' ophthalmopathy: a randomized, single blind trial.
Orbital radiotherapy (Rx) is a commonly used treatment for Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO), but controlled clinical trials evaluating different Rx doses and application forms have not been performed. In euthyroid patients with moderately severe GO, we randomly compared the efficacy and tolerability of three Rx protocols. Orbital Rx (telecobalt) was administered either in 20 divided fractions of 1 G...
متن کاملHigh-dose, single-fraction image-guided intensity-modulated radiotherapy for metastatic spinal lesions.
PURPOSE To report tumor control and toxicity for patients treated with image-guided intensity-modulated radiotherapy (RT) for spinal metastases with high-dose single-fraction RT. METHODS AND MATERIALS A total of 103 consecutive spinal metastases in 93 patients without high-grade epidural spinal cord compression were treated with image-guided intensity-modulated RT to doses of 18-24 Gy (median...
