Radiotherapy using IMRT boosts after hyperbaric oxygen therapy with chemotherapy for glioblastoma
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of radiotherapy (RT) using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) boosts after hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy with chemotherapy in patients with glioblastoma. Twenty-four patients with glioblastoma were treated with the combined therapy, which was RT using IMRT boosts after HBO with chemotherapy, and were retrospectively a...
متن کاملHyperbaric oxygen therapy sensitizes nimustine treatment for glioma in mice
Nimustine (ACNU) has antitumor activities in patients with malignant glioma. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) may enhance the efficacy of certain therapies that are hampered by the hypoxic microenvironment. We examined the combined effects of ACNU and HBO in a GFP transgenic nude mice bearing human glioma model. Mice inoculated with human glioma cells SU3 were randomly divided into the four groups: (A) ...
متن کاملRapidArc: Initial experience in high grade glioma
Background: Identify the optimal technique of radiotherapy for patients with high grade glioma. Our initial year of experience with RapidArc radiation therapy. Materials and Methods: Planning CT scans of 50 patients with grade IV glioma were reviewed and three plan sets by 3D Conformal Radiotherapy (3DCRT), Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) and Rapid Arc (RA) were generated and the plans ...
متن کاملCombination hyperbaric oxygen and temozolomide therapy in C6 rat glioma model.
PURPOSE Temozolomide (TMZ) has anti-tumor activity in patients with malignant glioma. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) may enhance the efficacy of certain therapies that are limited because of the hypoxic tumor microenvironment. We examined the combined effects of TMZ-HBO in a rat glioma model. METHODS After stereotactic injection of C6/LacZ rat glioma cells into the Wistar rats brain, the rats were r...
متن کاملGene therapy for high-grade glioma.
High-grade glioma is the most frequently occurring primary brain tumor and is associated with a poor prognosis. Current treatment regimens have had only a modest effect on the progressive course despite recent advances in surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. Gene therapy for brain tumors represents a novel and promising therapeutic approach and has been investigated clinically for the last ...
