A Meta-Analysis of Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy for Advanced Esophageal Cancer
BACKGROUND Concurrent chemoradiotherapy is a standard treatment for local advanced esophageal cancer, but the outcomes are controversial. Our goals were to compare the therapeutic effects of concurrent chemoradiotherapy and radiotherapy alone in local advanced esophageal cancer using meta-analysis. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE and the Cochrane library were searched for studies comparing chemoradio...
متن کاملSurvival Outcomes and Toxicity of Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy for Esophageal Cancer
Aims: The aim of the study was to investigate the impact of chemoradiotherapy(CRT) on survival of patients with unresectable esophageal cancer treated with radiotherapy combined with either concurrent DCF [docetaxel, cisplatin +5-fluorouracil(5-FU)] or CF [cisplatin and 5-FU).Patients and methods:Data of patients who underwent CRT for esophageal cancer during 2010 and 2015 in the department of ...
متن کاملTumour volume changes assessed with high-quality KVCT in lung cancer patients undergoing concurrent chemoradiotherapy.
OBJECTIVE We evaluated tumour volume changes in patients with lung cancer undergoing concurrent chemoradiotherapy using image-guided radiotherapy (RT). METHODS The kilovoltage image was obtained using CT on rail at every five fractions. The gross tumour volumes (GTVs), including the primary tumour and lymph nodes (LNs), were contoured to analyse the time and degree of tumour regression. RES...
متن کاملPET/CT planning during chemoradiotherapy for esophageal cancer
PURPOSE To evaluate the usefulness of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for field modification during radiotherapy in esophageal cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective study on 33 patients that underwent chemoradiotherapy (CRT). Pathologic findings were squamous cell carcinoma in 32 patients and adenocarcinoma in 1 patient. All patients underwent PE...
متن کاملImpact of induction concurrent chemoradiotherapy on pulmonary function and postoperative acute respiratory complications in esophageal cancer.
STUDY OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of induction concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) on pulmonary function and postoperative acute respiratory complications (PARCs). DESIGN A retrospective review of our patients treated with induction cCRT to determine the impact on pulmonary function and identify predictors of PARCs. Correlations were sought between patient demographics, clinical charact...
