Women should not die of cervical cancer...but they do. Most cases of cervical cancer are preventable and, if caught early, highly curable. Despite this, cervical cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death in women worldwide. Unfortunately, cure is less likely when the disease is
OBJECTIVE
The standard of care in locally advanced rectal cancer is preoperative treatment with fluoropyrimidine-based chemoradiotherapy. Sorafenib works synergistically with radiation and inhibits Ras/Raf, PDFGR, and VEGFR. This phase I study evaluated the safety and efficacy of sorafenib with
OBJECTIVE
A common complication of pelvic radiotherapy (RT) is acute radiation-induced proctosigmoiditis (RIPS), for which a multitude of therapies have been tried. The 5-aminosalicylates (5-ASA), which are traditionally used to treat inflammatory bowel disease, have been tested; however, all but
KRAS mutation occurs in ∼40% of locally advanced rectal cancers (LARCs). The multitarget tyrosine kinase inhibitor sorafenib has radiosensitising effects and might improve outcomes for standard preoperative chemoradiotherapy in patients with KRAS-mutated LARC.
Adult patients with KRAS-mutated T3/4
BACKGROUND
Patients who have been treated for colorectal cancer in Australia can consult their general practitioner (GP) for advice about symptoms or side effects at any time following their treatment. However, there is no evidence that such patients are consistently advised by GPs, and patients
Radiation-induced acute intestinal symptoms (RIAISs) are the most relevant complication of abdominal or pelvic radiation. Considering the negative impact of RIAIS on patients' daily activities, the preventive effects of berberine on RIAIS in patients were investigated. Thirty-six patients with
To compare acute adverse events (AE) and postoperative complication rates in a randomized trial of short-course (SC) versus long-course (LC) preoperative radiotherapy.
Evidence demonstrates that adding neoadjuvant radiotherapy to surgery offers better local control in the management of rectal
Purpose: Monalizumab binds CD94/NKG2A, preventing HLA-E inhibition of tumor lymphocytes. A dose-ranging/cohort expansion trial of monalizumab for recurrent gynecologic malignancies was conducted to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) and to explore clinical activity,
