Optimal approach for renal cancer
In the European Union there are some 84,400 new cases of kidney cancer with 34,700 deaths yearly [1]. With increasing knowledge of the mechanisms that drive renal cancer biology and the development of agents that target angiogenesis, growth and metastases, hope has been given to patients with this disease. Enormous progress has been made in the last few years for patients with advanced and meta...
متن کاملImproving outcomes in metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma by sequencing therapy.
Targeted agents have substantially improved outcomes in metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma. However, due to multiple mechanisms of evasive resistance, almost all patients progress at some point and may require subsequent therapies. Various agents have been explored after failure of first-line treatment in randomized clinical trials. However, so far few questions about the optimal sequen...
متن کاملImpact of Prolonged Fraction Delivery Time Modelling Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy with High Dose Hypofractionation on the Killing of Cultured ACHN Renal Cell Carcinoma Cell Line
Introduction: Stereotactic body radiotherapy delivers hypofractionated irradiation with high dose per fraction through complex treatment techniques. The increased complexity leads to longer dose delivery times for each fraction. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of prolonged fraction delivery time with high-dose hypofractionation on the killing of cultured ACHN cells.Method...
متن کاملMetastatic Renal cell Carcinoma Presenting as a clear-cell Tumor in Tongue: A Case Report
Introduction: Metastatic lesions of the oral cavity are extremely rare, accounting for approximately 1% of all malignant oral tumors. The most common primary sources of metastatic tumors in the oral region are, from the most to the least common, the breast, lung, kidney, bone, and colon. Renal cell carcinoma accounts for nearly 3% of all adult malignancies. It usually metastasizes to the lungs,...
متن کاملSpine Radiosurgery in the Management of Renal Cell Carcinoma Metastases.
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) presents an interesting challenge in radiation oncology. Improved systemic therapy has significantly prolonged survival. Modern imaging has allowed practitioners to effectively identify patients with oligometastatic disease. Conventionally fractionated radiation therapy is a first-line treatment option for palliation of bone metastases, including the spine, but has li...
