Improved 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 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...
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 کاملClinical Prognostic Factors for Locally Advanced Esophageal Squamous Carcinoma Treated after Definitive Chemoradiotherapy
PURPOSE Locally advanced esophageal cancers are generally treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, followed by surgery in operable candidates. However, even if the patients were diagnosed as operable disease, surgery could not be performed on patients with poor condition or other comorbidity. In this case, definitive chemoradiotherapy (dCRT) is the other option for localized esophageal cance...
متن کاملRole of Brg1 in progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
Objective(s): Epigenetic regulation of gene expression can be carried out through chromatin remodeling enzymes such as SWI/SNF. Brg1 also known as SMARCA4 is a catalytic subunit of SWI/SNF, which is necessary for MMPs expression. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are known as important player enzymes during tumor progression and metastasis. Aberrant epigenetic modification of chromatin should be...
