概括
主要中枢神经系统淋巴瘤 (PCNSL) 的救援疗法具有挑战性. 大容量瘤 (>14毫升) 呈现局部衰竭的趋势,表明需要加强局部或全身治疗策略.
科学领域:
- 神经瘤学神经瘤学
- 临床瘤学临床瘤学
- 医疗成像医学成像
背景情况:
- 初级中枢神经系统淋巴瘤 (PCNSL) 的进展带来了重大挑战,救援疗法往往导致大量的发病率和死亡率.
- 了解第一个瘤进展的模式对于确定改善PCNSL治疗结果的机会至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 分析PCNSL患者第一个瘤进展的模式.
- 确定与局部控制 (LC) 和无进展生存 (PFS) 相关的患者,瘤和治疗变量.
主要方法:
- 连续95名病理确认PCNSL患者 (2002-2021) 的回顾性审查.
- 卡普兰-梅尔,日志等级测试和考克斯比例危险模型被用来评估影响LC,PFS的因素以及第一次失败的模式.
- 进行多变量和单变量分析来评估关联.
主要成果:
- 在队列中,一年的PFS为48%,一年的LC为80%.
- 在有进展的29名患者中,59%的患者只有局部性衰竭.
- 局部控制与年龄,卡诺夫斯基性能状态 (KPS),完成高剂量甲状腺素 (HD-MTX) 的>6个循环和通道内化疗有显著关联.
- 大容量瘤 (>14毫升) 倾向于增加局部第一次失败 (1年LC 64%vs83%<14毫升).
结论:
- 系统和内治疗对于实现PCNSL局部控制至关重要.
- 庞大的瘤中局部衰竭的趋势表明,可能需要加强局部疗法或加强全身治疗方法.

Treatment Resistant Cancers
3.3K
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine
4.9K
Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Targeted Cancer Therapies

The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.
