It has been unequivocally demonstrated that hyperthermia (40-44 degrees C) has an potentiating effect on radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Technical improvements have facilitated the application of both local and whole-body hyperthermia, and have thus made this form of treatment available to large
BACKGROUND
Ewing's sarcoma and primitive neuroectodermal tumor of bone are closely related, highly malignant tumors of children, adolescents, and young adults. A new drug combination, ifosfamide and etoposide, was highly effective in patients with Ewing's sarcoma or primitive neuroectodermal tumor
The role of chemotherapy in extremity/trunk soft-tissue sarcoma (ET-STS) is controversial, even for patients at high risk for distant recurrence and death (those with high-grade tumors ≥5 cm in size). This study examines the impact of integrating chemotherapy with neoadjuvant The potential therapeutic advantage of including the radiosensitizer misonidazole (MISO) in a treatment regimen combining systemic chemotherapy and localized radiotherapy was assessed in the KHT sarcoma. Tumor-bearing C3H mice were treated with 1-(2-chloroethyl)-3-cyclohexyl-1-nitrosourea,
BACKGROUND
Patients with metastatic sarcoma who progress on vascular endothelial growth factor receptor inhibitors (VEGFRi) have limited treatment options. Upregulation of the mTOR pathway has been demonstrated to be a means of resistance to targeted VEGFRi in metastatic
Purpose. Typical treatment of retroperitoneal sarcomas (RPSs) is surgery with or without radiation therapy for localized disease. With surgery alone, local failure rates are as high as 90%; this led to radiation therapy playing an important role in the treatment of RPSs. Methods. Thirty-one patients
We analysed the cohort of paediatric patients with metastatic non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas (NRSTS) treated in the BERNIE protocol, i.e. open-label, multicentre, randomised phase II study evaluating the role of bevacizumab (BO20924/ITCC-006; ClinicalTrials.gov: Sarcomatoid cancer is defined by the World Health Organization as a category of non-small cell lung cancers with sarcoma or sarcoma-like differentiation. They are characterized by poor prognosis and resistance to conventional chemotherapy. However, the mutational profile of sarcomatoid cancer
The autopsy findings of a 14-year-old Japanese girl with Ewing's sarcoma, who had multiple neurofibrillary tangles and Lewy bodies and hemiatrophy of the central nervous system (CNS), are reported. She had retinoblastoma of her right eye 8 months after birth, which was treated with chemotherapy and
Between January 1988 and December 1990, 74 patients with localized Ewing's sarcoma of bone were treated with a new protocol that consisted of an initial 6-week period of chemotherapy with vincristine (VCR), adriamycin (ADM) and cyclophosphamide (EDX) followed by local therapy and additional
We evaluated the role of bevacizumab as part of the multi-modality treatment of children and adolescents with metastatic rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) or non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcoma (NRSTS).
Eligible patients aged ≥6 months to <18 years were randomised to receive induction chemotherapy (four
Background: Patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) are at higher risk of local and distant recurrence and are thus more vulnerable to metastatic diseases. Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) and subsequent curative resection
Improved efficacy of Doxil (STEALTH liposomal doxorubicin) compared to free doxorubicin has been demonstrated in the treatment of several tumor types. We have shown that addition of low-dose tumor necrosis factor (TNF) to systemic Doxil administration dramatically improved tumor response in the
Background: Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a rare aggressive sarcoma that affects children and young adults, and portends poor outcomes despite intensive multimodal treatment approaches. We report toxicity, response, and
Treatment of cultured neonatal ventricular myocytes with oncogenic Ras increases their size and stimulates the re-expression of genes which are normally restricted to the fetal stage of ventricular development, including atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and skeletal muscle (SkM)-alpha-actin. To
