概括
强度调节质子疗法 (IMPT) 在接受放射治疗的乳腺癌患者中显著降低了循环免疫细胞 (EDIC) 的有效剂量. 这种先进的技术可以改善器官节约,从而改善患者的治疗结果.
科学领域:
- 辐射瘤学 辐射瘤学
- 医学物理 医学物理
- 在瘤学瘤学.
背景情况:
- 循环免疫细胞的有效剂量 (EDIC) 是肺癌和食道癌患者生存的预后因素.
- 评估强度调制质子疗法 (IMPT) 对于EDIC减轻与体积调制弧线疗法 (VMAT) 相比,对于局部晚期乳腺癌 (BC) 治疗至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 在局部晚期乳腺癌患者中,与VMAT相比,评估IMPT降低EDIC的益处.
- 用IMPT分析影响EDIC减少的剂量计参数.
主要方法:
- 对10名BC患者的回顾性分析,这些患者接受了VMAT治疗,用于局部区域放射治疗.
- 使用包含平均器官剂量 (心脏,肺,肝脏) 和积分剂量的公式计算EDIC.
- 在VMAT和IMPT治疗计划之间比较EDIC.
主要成果:
- IMPT显著降低了EDIC中位数,从3.37 Gy (VMAT) 降至2.13 Gy (IMPT) (p < 0.01).
- 在左侧 (3.15 Gy 到 1.65 Gy) 和右侧 (5.60 Gy 到 3.38 Gy) 的BC患者中观察到显著的EDIC减少 (p < 0.01).
- 综合剂量减少与IMPT是EDIC减少的主要驱动因素,与肺节省 (左侧BC) 或肝节省 (右侧BC) 相关.
结论:
- 在接受局部区域辅助放射治疗的乳腺癌患者中,IMPT表明EDIC显著减少.
- 降低整体总剂量,加上器官特异性节约,是IMPT降低EDIC的有效性的关键.
- 未来的动态模型可能比目前的静态EDIC计算提供更准确的免疫系统剂量估计.

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.

Tumor Immunotherapy
498
Immunotherapy is a treatment that boosts or manipulates the immune system to fight diseases, including cancer. For instance, by stimulating an immune response through vaccinations against viruses that cause cancers, like hepatitis B virus and human papillomavirus, these diseases can be prevented. Nonetheless, some cancer cells can avoid the immune system due to their rapid mutation and division. The immune response to many cancers involves three phases: elimination, equilibrium, and escape.
