BACKGROUND To preserve laryngeal function in early-stage laryngeal cancer, chemotherapy and radiotherapy are performed more often than surgery as initial treatment. However, in recurrent cases, complex salvage surgery is often required as patients who received aggressive chemoradiotherapy are susceptible to postoperative complications. We report here salvage therapy that preserved laryngeal fun...
BACKGROUND Predictor factors determining complete response to treatment are still not clearly defined. We aimed to evaluate clinicopathological features, risk factors, treatment responses, and survival analysis of patient with advanced nonseminomatous GCTs (NSGCTs). MATERIALS AND METHODS Between November 1999 and September 2011, 140 patients with stage II and III NSGCTs were referred to our i...
BACKGROUND Rituximab-containing salvage chemotherapy has shown promising efficacy in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). The aim of this study was to examine the efficacy of rituximab-containing treatment in patients with B-cell NHL who developed relapsed or refractory disease after prior rituximab use and to explore the predictive factors of response using th...
OBJECTIVE To assess the clinicopathologic factors influencing survival in patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma undergoing salvage chemotherapy. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted on cases of metastatic urothelial carcinoma who underwent cisplatin-based salvage chemotherapy at our institution between April 2003 and July 2011. The association of various clinicopathologic fact...
The role of second-line and salvage chemotherapy in malignant pleural mesothelioma treatment is not yet established. We report a case of relapsed malignant pleural mesothelioma in which the patient failed to respond to pemetrexed-based chemotherapy but was successfully treated with gemcitabine and vinorelbine. The patient underwent a left extrapleural pneumonectomy. Three years later she develo...
Patients with epithelial ovarian cancer must receive optimal surgical care and state-of-the-art chemotherapy in the primary treatment setting. The salvage treatment of women with recurrent or persistent ovarian cancer remains a difficult task. A very small percentage of patients with platinum-sensitive, small-volume disease appear to achieve prolonged disease-free survival. The treatment of pat...
OBJECTIVE Patients with recurrent triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) currently have no established treatment option other than chemotherapy. However, long-term chemotherapy is often difficult due to adverse effects. A previous study documented a 10%-30% response rate of progestins in oestrogen receptor-negative breast cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of medroxyproge...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial and deadly solid tumor in children. It accounts for 15% of the deaths from cancer in the pediatric age group. Approximately half of the newly diagnosed children are at "high risk" of treatment failure. The aim of this study is to evaluate the response rate of salvage chemotherapy by the ICE (Ifosfamide, Carboplatin, and Etopos...
Agents with stem cell-toxic potential are frequently used for salvage therapy of Hodgkin's disease (HD) and high-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Because many patients with relapsed or refractory lymphoma are candidates for autologous progenitor cell transplantation, possible toxic effects of salvage chemotherapy on progenitor cells must be taken into account. In a retrospective study, we ha...
