Hyperthermia in combined treatment of cancer.
Hyperthermia, the procedure of raising the temperature of tumour-loaded tissue to 40-43 degrees C, is applied as an adjunctive therapy with various established cancer treatments such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The potential to control power distributions in vivo has been significantly improved lately by the development of planning systems and other modelling tools. This increased underst...
متن کاملCombined Hyperthermia and Radiotherapy for the Treatment of Cancer
Radiotherapy is used to treat approximately 50% of all cancer patients, with varying success. Radiation therapy has become an in-tegral part of modern treatment strategies for many types of cancer in recent decades, but is associated with a risk of long-term adverse effects. Of these side effects, car-diac complications are particularly relevant since they not only adversely affect quality of l...
متن کاملTargeted near infrared hyperthermia combined with immune stimulation for optimized therapeutic efficacy in thyroid cancer treatment
Treatment of thyroid cancer has incurred much focus because of its high prevalency. As a new strategy treating thyroid cancer, hyperthermia takes several advantages compared with surgery or chemotherapy, including minimal invasion, low systematic toxicity and the ability to enhance the immunogenicity of cancer cells with the expression Hsp70 which serves as Toll-like receptors-4 (TLR-4 agonist)...
متن کاملHyperthermia Combined with Chemotherapy – Biological Rationale, Clinical Application, and Treatment Results
There is substantial evidence from preclinical data that the antitumor cytotoxicity of selected chemotherapeutic agents either alone or combined with radiation can be enhanced by appropriate heat exposure (40–44 °C) of cells or tumor tissues. Based upon these results the integration of hyperthermia as an additional treatment modality, given simultaneously with systemic chemotherapy or in combin...
متن کاملA combined, multimodal intervention for individuals with dementia.
Few studies have tested the effects of nonpharmacological interventions designed for people in early-stage dementia on the family caregiver. This study tested a multimodal intervention (Taiji exercise and support group) for people with dementia, with some treatment group caregivers choosing to co-participate. Control group caregivers participated in educational programs. Outcome measures includ...
