Modified RECIST criteria for assessment of response in malignant pleural mesothelioma.
BACKGROUND The growth pattern of malignant pleural mesothelioma makes the use of RECIST (response evaluation criteria in solid tumours) response criteria difficult. We have developed and validated Modified RECIST criteria adapted to the growth pattern of malignant pleural mesothelioma. PATIENTS AND METHODS We evaluated 73 patients from two clinical trials of cisplatin/gemcitabine chemotherapy...
متن کاملWill there be resistance to the RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors)?
From the earliest days of the Cancer Chemotherapy Cooperative Group Clinical Trials program in the 1950s, there have been concerns about the definition of response in solid tumors and the reliance on quantitative measurements. In the first clinical trial in solid tumors published by Zubrod et al. (1), “Treatment was considered to give a positive response if either the total measured tumor mass ...
متن کاملOptimal lesion number for evaluation of tumor response in response evaluation criteria in solid tumors.
TO THE EDITOR: We read with interest the article by Hillman et al on the use of limited tumor selection for reporting imaging-based response assessment in clinical oncology trials. We applaud the authors for their attention to this very important question of how best to use imaging information to determine patient responses to anticancer therapies. We agree with the authors’ suggestion that one...
متن کاملEvaluation of response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy for esophageal cancer: PET response criteria in solid tumors versus response evaluation criteria in solid tumors.
UNLABELLED Recently, PET response criteria in solid tumors (PERCIST) have been proposed as a new standardized method to assess chemotherapeutic response metabolically and quantitatively. The aim of this study was to evaluate therapeutic response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy for locally advanced esophageal cancer, comparing PERCIST with the currently widely used response evaluation criteria in so...
