Induction chemotherapy improved outcomes of patients with resectable esophageal cancer who received chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery.
PURPOSE To investigate the effect of induction chemotherapy (CHT) before trimodality therapy on the outcome of patients with resectable cancer of the esophagus. METHODS AND MATERIALS This retrospective study included 81 consecutive patients with resectable cancer of the esophagus who received neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by esophagectomy between January 1990 and December 1998 (inclu...
متن کاملThe lymphocyte–monocyte ratio predicts tumor response and survival in patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer who received definitive chemoradiotherapy
BACKGROUND The lymphocyte-monocyte ratio (LMR), a simple biomarker that can reflect the antitumor immune response of the host, has been associated with patient prognosis in several solid tumors. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether LMR can predict clinical tumor response and prognosis in patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) who received definitive ch...
متن کاملTreatment outcomes of definitive chemoradiotherapy for patients with hypopharyngeal cancer
We analyzed the efficacy of definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for patients with hypopharyngeal cancer (HPC). Subjects comprised 97 patients who were treated with definitive CRT from 1990 to 2006. Sixty-one patients (62.9%) with resectable disease who aimed to preserve the larynx received induction chemotherapy (ICT), whereas 36 patients (37.1%) with resectable disease who refused an operation ...

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...
