Does chemoradiotherapy after intended curative surgery increase survival of gastric cancer patients?
The randomised controlled trial reported by MacDonald et al documents an impressive increase in overall survival with postoperative chemoradiotherapy compared with surgical resection of gastric cancer alone (36 months v 27 months). Of equal importance is the finding of a significant reduction in the hazard ratio for relapse (1.52, 95% CI 1.23–1.86; p<0.001). Although not the first randomised co...
متن کاملGefitinib Alone or with Whole Brain Radiotherapy for Patients with Brain Metastasis from NSCLC
Brain metastases (BM) are found in approximately 20-40% of all patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially in adenocarcinoma (Olak 1999; Yawn et al., 2003). The outcomes of BM from NSCLC are very poor with few effective treatment options. The median overall survival time (OS) of patients without treatment is less than 3 months (Nussbaum et al., 1996). Whole brain radiotherapy (...
متن کاملWhole brain radiotherapy in patients with NSCLC and brain metastases
1960 www.thelancet.com Vol 388 October 22, 2016 Radiation oncologists are often challenged because of the paucity of randomised trials supporting their clinical practice. In terms of brain metastases treatment, it should be emphasised that there have been fi ve randomised trials assessing whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT): four studies assessing stereotactic radio therapy with or without WBRT for...
متن کاملComparison of outcomes in patients with stage III versus limited stage IV non-small cell lung cancer
BACKGROUND Standard therapy for metastatic non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) includes palliative systemic chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. Recent studies of patients with limited metastases treated with curative-intent stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) have shown encouraging survival. We hypothesized that patients treated with SBRT for limited metastases have comparable outcomes with...
متن کاملIs surgery indicated for elderly patients with early stage nonsmall cell lung cancer, in the era of stereotactic body radiotherapy?
BACKGROUND The aim of this article is to assess the influence of comorbidities among elderly patients (at least 70 year old) undergoing surgery for early stage nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and to explore the tolerability and efficacy of surgery in relation to stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in this patient population. METHODS A review of the literature on the prevalence of comorbid...
