New drug in neoadjuvant chemoradiation for rectal cancer
Background: In recent years, neoadjuvant chemoradiation and subsequent surgical resection with total mesorectal excision has been shown to increase local control with decreased toxicity. Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer. In this study we evaluated the efficacy a cox-2 inhibitor on pathologic response, sphincter preservation and acute tox...

During thelast decade, substantial progress has been made in treatment modalities: surgical management currently includes a broad spectrum of operative procedures ranging from radical operations such as abdominoperineal resections to innovative...
متن کاملIdentification of protein clusters predictive of tumor response in rectal cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant chemo-radiotherapy
Preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) is the gold standard in locally advanced rectal cancer, only 10-30% of patients achieving benefits. Currently, there is a need of a reliable selection of markers for the identification of poor or non-responders prior to therapy. In this work, we compared protein profiles before therapy of patients differing in their responses to nCRT to find nov...

Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in Shahid Faghihi Hospital of Shira...
متن کاملDevelopments in Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy in Rectal Cancer
The treatment of rectal cancer has evolved dramatically through the last three decades. Until the 1970’s and 1980’s, surgery was often the only therapeutic modality employed in the treatment of rectal cancer patients. However, local recurrence with surgery alone was significant resulting in patient morbidity and death (Gunderson & Sosin, 1974; Rich et al., 1983). Some studies have demonstrated ...
