概括
强度调节辐射疗法 (IMRT) 单独是选择头皮状细胞癌 (HNSCC) 患者的可行的治疗方法. 这种方法对老年人或不适合使用西斯的个人来说是有前途的,但高级阶段需要进一步调查.
科学领域:
- 在瘤学瘤学.
- 辐射瘤学 辐射瘤学
- 头部和部癌症研究研究
背景情况:
- 同时化学放射治疗是许多头状状细胞癌 (HNSCC) 病例的标准.
- 仅强度调节辐射疗法 (IMRT) 已被作为一种替代治疗方式探索.
- 单独IMRT的患者选择标准和结果需要进一步阐明.
研究的目的:
- 为了评估IMRT单独治疗HNSCC患者的结果,通常与并发化疗或放射治疗一起进行治疗.
- 根据HPV状态和TNM-8分期来评估总体存活率 (OS).
- 为了确定影响HNSCC与IMRT单独治疗的OS的预后因素.
主要方法:
- 仅用IMRT (2005-2019) 治疗的HNSCC患者 (不包括T1-2 N0) 的回顾性分析.
- 用TNM-8标准重新分组患者,并根据HPV状态分层 (HPV+和HPV-).
- 用多变量分析 (MVA) 分析整体存活率 (OS),以确定预后因素.
主要成果:
- 总共有1083名患者 (460名HPV+,623名HPV-) 被纳入;化学疗法遗漏的原因各不相同 (年龄,虚弱,禁忌,偏好).

Tumor Immunotherapy
450
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.

Cancer Therapies
7.5K
Cancer therapies are various modes of treatment, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy that are administered to cancer patients.
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...

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.
