Expression analysis of CD44 isoforms S and V3, in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
Objective(s): CD44 is a member of the cell adhesion molecules family. Naturally, CD44S, along with CD44V3 influence the cell motility, migration, and adhesion, while in tumor cells they lead to tumor invasion, progression, and metastasis. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the CD44S and CD44V3 expression in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC) and to reveal their correlations wit...
متن کاملComparative study of cisplatin-based definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy with S-1 versus paclitaxel for unresectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
This study compared the efficiency and safety of definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) using Paclitaxel plus Cisplatin (TP) versus S-1 plus Cisplatin (CS) in unresectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (LAESCC). Between January 2009 and December 2013, 203 LAESCC patients were retrospectively reviewed. We performed a propensity score matching analysis; 41 patients t...
متن کاملImproved survival with higher radiation dose for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy
Purpose The optimal radiation dose for patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) has long been debated. We undertook the retrospective study to evaluate the survival impact of high dose vs standard dose in patients with stage II-III esophageal cancer treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT). Results A total of 137 patients were included in our study, 63 patients classifie...
متن کاملNeoadjuvant chemotherapy may not benefit esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy.
BACKGROUND To assess the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT). METHODS The clinical data of patients with ESCC treated with chemoradiotherapy with or without NAC were collected and retrospectively reviewed. The overall survival, locoregional failure-free survival, and distant failure-fr...
متن کاملExpression profiling of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy: clinical implications.
In esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), chemoradiotherapy (CRT) has a curative potential even in cases of locally advanced carcinoma. However, only about half of the patients benefit from CRT, and an accurate prediction of sensitivity to CRT is eagerly awaited. Using microarrays, we analyzed gene-expression patterns of pretreatment biopsy specimens from 33 patients with CRT alone includin...
