Clear cell sarcoma (CCS) is a rare malignant tumor with a poor prognosis. In the present study, we established a lung metastasis animal model of CCS and investigated the therapeutic effect of boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) using p-borono-L-phenylalanine (L-BPA). Biodistribution data revealed
Clear cell sarcoma of tendons and aponeuroses (CCS) is a rare, malignant tumor arising in lower extremities with no effective treatment other than wide surgical resection. Here described is a case of primary CCS in the peroneal tendon of the right foot of a 54-year-old woman enrolled to undergo
Clear cell sarcoma (CCS) is a rare melanocytic malignant tumor with a poor prognosis. Our previous study demonstrated that in vitro cultured CCS cells have the ability to highly uptake l-BPA and thus boron neutron capture therapy could be a new option for CCS treatment. This paper proved that a
Clear cell sarcoma (CCS) is a rare malignant tumor with a poor prognosis. In our previous study, the tumor disappeared under boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) on subcutaneously-transplanted CCS-bearing animals. In the present study, the tumor disappeared under this therapy on model mice
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) may improve the locoregional control of radio/chemoresistant tumours like soft tissues sarcomas (STS). This technique uses the 10B(n,alpha)7Li nuclear reaction to destroy tumour cells, provided that a sufficient amount of 10B may be carried selectively into them.
Clear cell sarcoma of tendons and aponeuroses (CCS) is a rare malignant tumor with no effective treatment. This study demonstrates the efficacy of BNCT with the use of human CCS-bearing nude mice. Groups A and C were administered saline, and groups B and D were injected with
The in vivo uptake of dodecahydro-closo-dodecaborate derivatives substituted with phosphate- and bisphosphonate groups was evaluated in two different experimental tumor model systems and compared to other boronated and non-boronated compounds. These phosphorous-containing boron clusters may have
Clear cell sarcoma (CCS), a rare malignant tumor with a predilection for young adults, is of poor prognosis. Recently however, boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) with the use of p-borono-L-phenylalanine (BPA) for malignant melanoma has provided good results. CCS also produces melanin; therefore,
Borocaptate sodium (BSH) and L-boronophenylalanine (L-BPA) are two boron carriers used for boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) in the treatment of glioblastoma and melanoma, respectively. The suitability of these two compounds was evaluated on the basis of pharmacokinetic studies aiming at
Fast neutron radiotherapy has proven to be an effective form of treatment in a selected subset of tumors (salivary gland tumors, sarcomas, and locally-advanced prostate cancer), but has not proven to be more beneficial than conventional photon irradiation for the majority of tumor types upon which
Two novel nitroimidazole-carboranes were examined for their uptake and retention in two experimental murine solid tumours and in some normal tissues, using in vivo 11B magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The compounds were injected i.p. at 0.8mmol/kg into mice bearing either the SCCVII/Ha squamous cell
OBJECTIVE
Malignant meningiomas, similar to glioblastomas, are difficult tumors to control. We tried to control malignant tumors related to meningiomas by boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT).
METHODS
Since June 2005, we applied BNCT with 13 rounds of neutron irradiation to seven cases of malignant
Morbidity rates for osteogenic sarcoma in the Armenian SSR within 10 years (1970-1979) were studied. The climatic, geographic and geochemical peculiarities of low and high morbidity rate regions of the Republic were compared. The rates were high in areas where the soil is rich in boron and poor in
It is necessary to explore new treatments for recurrent head and neck malignancies (HNM) to avoid severe impairment of oro-facial structures and functions. Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is tumor-cell targeted radiotherapy that has significant superiority over conventional radiotherapies in
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the efficacy and safety of boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) in the treatment of inoperable head-and-neck cancers that recur locally after conventional photon radiation therapy.
METHODS
In this prospective, single-center Phase I/II study, 30 patients with inoperable,
