BACKGROUND: The authors undertook a retrospective study on local tumor control, survival, and complications of conventional irradiation compared with accelerated hyperfractionated irradiation in women with selected head and neck tumor sites. METHODS: One hundred eight consecutive women who were treated with radiation alone for cure during 1974-1998 were analyzed. Patients were excluded who had T1 tumors of the vocal cord and those who were treated with brachytherapy implants. Fifty-nine patients were treated with conventional fractionation once daily (QD) during 1974-1998 with a median dose of 2.1 grays (Gy) per fraction up to a total median dose of 69 Gy in a median overall time of 54 days. Forty-nine patients were treated with accelerated hyperfractionation twice daily (BID) during 1987-1998 at a median dose of 1.6 Gy per fraction BID, with an interfraction interval of 4-6 hours, for a total median dose of 66 Gy in 35 days. Patients were not randomized into the QD group or the BID group. RESULTS: The 7-year actuarial local control (LC) rates for T1-T2 tumors in QD-treated and BID-treated patients were 79% and 87%, respectively (P = not significant [NS]). For T3-T4 tumors, the LC rates at 7 years were 59% and 56% for the QD and BID groups, respectively (P = NS). A Cox regression analysis for LC showed that the significant variables were T classification and overall time. Schedule (QD or BID), total dose, dose per fraction, and patient age were not significant variables. For the QD and BID groups, the 7-year actuarial cause specific survival rates for patients with Stage I-II disease were 100% and 65%, respectively (P = 0.004), and, for patients with Stages III-IVA,IVB disease, the rates were 39% and 56%, respectively (P = NS), respectively. Acute morbidity was higher with the BID schedule: In the BID group, 8% of patients required tube or parenteral feeding, and 0% of patients in the QD group required such feeding (P = 0.04). The 5-year actuarial probability of Grade 3-5 late effects (according to the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group/European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer grading system) was 4% for the BID group and 0% for the QD group (P = NS). CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that accelerated hyperfractionated irradiation for women with advanced carcinoma of the head and neck does not provide significantly better local tumor control or cause specific disease free survival compared with conventional fractionation. Women with these malignancies appear to have a better prognosis compared with men. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy of adding accelerated fractionation after completing two thirds of routine fractionated radiotherapy in esophageal carcinoma. METHODS AND MATERIALS: From April 1988 to April 1990, 85 patients with histologically confirmed carcinoma of the esophagus were randomized into two groups. (1) The conventional fractionation (CF) group, received 1.8 Gy per day five times a week to a total dose of 68.4 Gy in 7-8 weeks, and (2) the late course accelerated hyperfractionated (LCAF) group which received the same schedule as the CF group during the first two thirds of the course of radiotherapy to a dose of 41.4 Gy/23 fx/4 to 5 weeks. This was then followed by accelerated hyperfractionation using reduced fields. In the LCAF portion of the radiotherapeutic course, the irradiation schedule was changed to 1.5 Gy twice a day, with an interval of 4 h between fractions, to a dose of 27 Gy/18 fx. Thus the total dose was also 68.4 Gy, the same as the CF group, but the course of radiotherapy was shorter, being only 6.4 weeks. The same Cobalt 60 teletherapy unit was used to treat all the cases. RESULTS: The 5 year actuarial survival and disease-free survival rates in the LCAF group were 34% and 42%, as compared to 15% and 15% respectively in the CF group, all statistically significant. Better local control was seen in the LCAF group than in the CF group, the 5 year control rates being 55% versus 21% (P = 0.003). The acute reactions were increased but acceptable in the LCAF patients, the radiation treatments could be completed without any breaks. The late reactions as observed after 5 years were not increased in comparison with the CF patients. CONCLUSIONS: The results from this study show that the late course accelerated hyperfractionated radiotherapy regime can improve results in esophageal carcinoma, with acceptable acute reactions as compared to conventional radiotherapy. 相似文献

PURPOSE: This retrospective study was performed to evaluate two postoperative radiotherapy schedules in terms of dose, fractionation, and overall treatment time in soft tissue sarcoma (STS) of the extremities. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Between January 1984 and December 1993, 62 patients with newly diagnosed localized STS of the extremities were treated with maximal conservative surgery and postoperative radiotherapy (RT). Forty-five patients received 50 Gy with conventional fractionation plus a boost dose (5 to 20 Gy). Seventeen patients had hyperfractionated accelerated radiotherapy (HFART) up to a dose of 45 Gy in 3 weeks. RESULTS: With a median follow-up of 72 months, the 5-year local failure rate was 25%, the 5-year disease-free and overall survival rates were respectively 42% and 62%. The 3-year local relapse, disease-free, and overall survival rates were respectively 16%, 44%, and 70% in the conventional radiotherapy group, and 36%, 47%, and 82% in the HFART group (NS). No factor significantly influenced local control with a trend, however, in favor of conventional RT (p = 0.10). CONCLUSION: HFART at the dose of 45 Gy does not seem to be superior to the standard RT schedule, neither in terms of local control, survival, nor in terms of long-term side effects. However this dose could be considered too low as well as the power of comparison between the two groups to draw definitive conclusions. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: We designed a phase II trial for evaluation of the efficacy and tolerability of an accelerated concomitant boost radiotherapy scheme for the treatment of the patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS: Thirty patients with unresectable stage IIIA/IIIB NSCLC were prospectively enrolled in this protocol. All patients were scheduled to receive 15 fractions of conventional radiotherapy in doses of 1.8 Gy, to a total of 27 Gy. For the last 10 treatment days, an accelerated concomitant boost schedule was started that was composed of 1.8 Gy/fraction/day, 5 days/week to the large field and 1.8 Gy/fraction/day to the boost field 6 h apart, to a total dose of 63 Gy/35 fractions/5 weeks. RESULTS: Median follow-up time was 13 months (range, 5-50 months; 3-year overall, disease-free, loco-regional disease-free and metastasis-free survivals were 23%, 19%, 19% and 23%, respectively). The most common acute toxicity was esophagitis in 31% of patients with the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group and the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (RTOG/EORTC) criteria grade 1, and in 54% with grade 2. Radiation pneumonitis developed in 16% of patients with RTOG/EORTC grade 1. Three-year actuarial rate of late pulmonary and skin-subcutaneous toxicity were 12% and 16%, respectively. No late radiotherapy complications of spinal cord or esophagus were recorded. CONCLUSION: Overall survival, local control and freedom from local progression were comparable with the results reported with pure hyperfractionated radiotherapy. The overall rate of acute and late toxicity was acceptable. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate the toxicity and efficacy of accelerated hyperfractionated radiotherapy (RT) for locally advanced cervical cancer. METHODS AND MATERIALS: A multi-institutional prospective single-arm study was conducted among eight Asian countries. Between 1999 and 2002, 120 patients (64 with Stage IIB and 56 with Stage IIIB) with squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix were treated with accelerated hyperfractionated RT. External beam RT consisted of 30 Gy to the whole pelvis, 1.5 Gy/fraction twice daily, followed by 20 Gy of pelvic RT with central shielding at a dose of 2-Gy fractions daily. A small bowel displacement device was used with the patient in the prone position. In addition to central shielding RT, intracavitary brachytherapy was started. Acute and late morbidities were graded according to the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group and Radiation Therapy Oncology Group/European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer criteria. RESULTS: The median overall treatment time was 35 days. The median follow-up time for surviving patients was 4.7 years. The 5-year pelvic control and overall survival rate for all patients was 84% and 70%, respectively. The 5-year pelvic control and overall survival rate was 78% and 69% for tumors > or = 6 cm in diameter, respectively. No treatment-related death occurred. Grade 3-4 late toxicities of the small intestine, large intestine, and bladder were observed in 1, 1, and 2 patients, respectively. The 5-year actuarial rate of Grade 3-4 late toxicity at any site was 5%. CONCLUSION: The results of our study have shown that accelerated hyperfractionated RT achieved sufficient pelvic control and survival without increasing severe toxicity. This treatment could be feasible in those Asian countries where chemoradiotherapy is not available. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness and toxicity of a new combination schedule based on concurrent navelbine, cisplatin and hyperfractionated radiotherapy in patients with locally advanced NSCLC treated with platinum and gemcitabine induction and consolidation chemotherapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The 37 patients with pathological confirmed advanced NSCLC (non-surgical stages IIIA and IIIB) were included in the study. All of them were assessable for survival and 32 for response. The treatment schedule consisted of cisplatin (100 mg/m2) or carboplatin (400 mg/m2) on day 1 with gemcitabine (1000 mg/m2) on days 1, 8 and 15. Treatment was given every 28 days for two courses, followed by concurrent administration of accelerated modified hyperfractionated radiotherapy, with concomitant boost, with a total dose of 61.64 Gy administered for 5 weeks, with cisplatin and navelbine, for two courses, finally followed by two courses of the same initial chemotherapy. RESULTS: Four patients achieved complete response (12.5%) and 14 (44%) partial response, for an overall objective response rate of 56.5%. After a minimum follow-up duration of 35.5 months, median progression free survival was 12.2 months. The median survival was 15.4 months with actuarial 1-, 2- and 3-year survival of 67, 21 and 15%, respectively. The main toxicity was hematological. There was esophagitis (grades III and IV) in 30% of the patients and there were two treatment-related deaths. CONCLUSION: Combined treatment with concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy in non-surgical NSCLC is an acceptable treatment modality. However, the toxicity was not negligible. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The 5-year survival of patients with completely resected node-positive gastric cancer ranges from 15% to 25%. We explored the feasibility of a chemoradiation regime consisting of concomitant hyperfractionated radiotherapy and 5-fluorouracil protracted venous infusion (5-FU PVI). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty patients received a total or partial gastrectomy operation and D2 nodal resection for Stage III gastric cancer; they were then irradiated by linac with 6-15-MV photons. The target included the gastric bed, the anastomosis, stumps, and regional nodes. A total dose of 55 Gy was given in 50 fractions using 1.1 Gy b.i.d. All patients received a concomitant 200 mg/m2/day 5-FU PVI. Patients were examined during the follow-up period as programmed. Toxicity was recorded according to RTOG criteria. RESULTS: After a median follow-up of 75.6 months (range: 22-136 months), 24 (60%) patients had died, and 16 (40%) were alive and free of disease. The 5-year actuarial incidence of relapse was 39%, 22%, and 2% for distant metastases, out-field peritoneal seeding, and in-field local regional recurrences, respectively. The 5-year actuarial cause-specific survival was 43%. Three patients survived more than 11 years. Acute > or = Grade 3 toxicity consisted of hematologic (22.5%) and gastrointestinal toxicity (nausea and vomiting 22.5%, diarrhea 2.8%, and abdominal pain 2.6%). No late toxicity was observed. CONCLUSION: This regime of concomitant 5-FU PVI and hyperfractionated radiotherapy was well tolerated and resulted in successful locoregional control and satisfactory survival. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Radiotherapy (RT) is often the therapy of choice for patients with Stage T2 glottic carcinoma. This retrospective study updated the results of RT for patients treated at our center. The primary focus of this study was whether a policy of using hyperfractionated RT for these patients resulted in a therapeutic gain.METHODS AND MATERIALS: A search of the database of patients treated in the Department of Radiation Oncology at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center was performed to identify patients with Stage T2 glottic carcinoma treated with RT alone between 1970 and 1998. A total of 230 patients formed the study cohort.RESULTS: The median follow-up for all patients was 82 months. Of the 230 patients, 180 were treated with parallel-opposed fields, and the median field size was 30 cm(2). Eighty-one patients (36%) were treated with twice-daily fractionation to 74-80 Gy. Eighty-nine patients (38%) were treated with 32-75 Gy at 2-Gy per fraction once daily, and 57 patients (25%) were treated with 2.06-2.26 Gy, once daily, to 66-70 Gy. The 2- and 5-year actuarial local control rate was 75% and 72%, respectively. After salvage therapy, the ultimate 5-year local control and disease-specific survival rate was 91% and 92%, respectively. The presence of subglottic extension and treatment with a daily dose of < or =2 Gy were associated with poorer local control (p <0.01) on both univariate and multivariate analyses. The 5-year local control rate for patients treated with twice-daily and once-daily RT was 79% and 67%, respectively (p = 0.06).CONCLUSION: The 5-year local control rates with hyperfractionated RT for Stage T2 glottic carcinoma approach 80%. Patients treated with twice-daily fractionation to a median dose of 77 Gy had an improvement in local control compared with patients treated with 70 Gy in 35 fractions. The Radiation Therapy Oncology Group is testing these two fractionation schedules in a randomized study. High control rates were also seen in selected patients treated with hypofractionated schedules, leaving the question of the optimal schedule for patients with Stage T2 disease unanswered. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To review the outcome for 56 Stage I non-small-cell lung cancer treated definitively with three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) and to investigate the value of elective nodal irradiation in this patient population. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Between 1992 and 2001, 56 patients were treated with 3D-CRT for inoperable Stage I histologically confirmed non-small-cell lung cancer; 31 with T1N0 and 25 with T2N0 disease. All patients were treated with 3D-CRT to a median isocenter dose of 70 Gy (range 59.94-83.85) given in daily doses of 1.8 or 2 Gy. Prognostic factors were analyzed with respect to their impact on overall survival. Twenty-two patients received radiotherapy (RT) directed to elective regional lymphatics to doses of 45-50 Gy. The remaining 33 patients were treated to limited fields confined to the primary lung cancer with a margin. The patterns of failure were reviewed. RESULTS: The median follow-up was 20 months (range 6 months to 6 years). The actuarial local control rate was 88%, 69%, and 63%, at 1, 2, and 3 years, respectively. The actuarial cause-specific survival rate was 82%, 67%, and 51% at 1, 2, and 3 years, respectively. The actuarial overall survival rate was 73%, 51%, and 34% at 1, 2, and 3 years, respectively. The actuarial metastasis-free survival rate was 90%, 85%, and 81% at 1, 2, and 3 years, respectively. The RT dose was the only factor predictive of overall survival in our analysis. No statistically significant difference was noted in cause-specific or overall survival according to whether patients received elective nodal irradiation. Two of 33 patients treated with limited fields had regional nodal failure. CONCLUSION: Many patients with medically inoperable Stage I lung cancer die of intercurrent causes. The omission of the elective nodal regions from the RT portals did not compromise either the cause-specific or overall survival rate. Elective nodal failures were uncommon in the group treated with limited RT fields. A radiation dose 70 Gy was predictive of better survival in our population. We await the results of prospective trials evaluating high-dose RT in patients treated with RT alone for Stage I lung cancer. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: We aim to report on local control in a phase II trial on preoperative hyper-fractionated and accelerated radiotherapy schedule (HART) in locally advanced resectable rectal cancer (LARC). This fractionation schedule was designed to keep the overall treatment time (OTT) as short as possible. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This is a prospective trial on patients with UICC stages II and III rectal cancer. The patients were submitted to a total dose of 41.6 Gy, delivered in 2.5 weeks at 1.6 Gy per fraction twice a day with a 6-h interfraction interval. Surgery was performed within 1 week after the end of irradiation. Adjuvant chemotherapy was delivered in a subset of patients. RESULTS: Two hundred and seventy nine patients were entered and 250 are fully assessable, with a median follow-up of 39 months. The 5-years actuarial local control (LC) rate is 91.7%. The overall survival (OS) is 59.6%. The freedom from disease relapse (FDR) is 71.5%. Downstaging was observed in 38% of the tumors. CONCLUSION: The actuarial LC at 5 years is 91.7%, although we are dealing with stages II-III LARC, mainly located in the lower rectum (median distance = 5 cm). The pattern of failure is dominated by distant metastases and treatment intensification will obviously require a systemic approach. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To determine the toxicity and clinical effectiveness of accelerated superfractionated radiotherapy with delayed concomitant boost (ASCBRT) in locally invasive carcinoma of the bladder. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Between July 1997 and December 2001, 87 patients (unsuitable or refusing cystectomy) with invasive bladder cancer underwent ASCBRT. The mean patient age was 66 years (range 40-90). The stage distribution was as follows: 2 T1, 51 T2, 13 T3, and 21 T4. Initially, the whole pelvis was treated by 1.8-Gy conventional daily fractions up to a total dose of 45 Gy. A small field boost covering gross disease was added as a second daily fraction (1.5 Gy) during the last 3 weeks of the 5-week schedule up to a total dose of 67.5 Gy. The interfraction interval was a minimum of 6 h. The patients were evaluated in follow-up for toxicity, local control, and survival. RESULTS: All but 2 patients completed the study protocol. Grade 3 acute urinary toxicity was observed in 2 patients. Grade 2 and 3 late bladder toxicity was observed in 12 patients and 1 patient, respectively. Grade 2 and 3 late bowel toxicity was observed in 5 and 3 patients, respectively. The 3-year actuarial local control, distant disease control, cause-specific survival, and overall survival rate was 64%, 78%, 58%, and 46%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed T stage as independent predictor of complete response. For Stage T2 and T3, the 3-year local control rate was 77% and 48%, respectively. At the last follow-up, 53 patients (61%) were still alive with a survival time between 6 and 62 months. CONCLUSION: ASCBRT is feasible with acceptable tolerance even in relatively old patients with Stage T3 or greater tumor. The encouraging locoregional control and survival results of this institutional experience, favorable compared with conventional radical and other accelerated fractionated (with or without a concomitant boost) RT series, make ASCBRT worthy of further study in a Phase III trial. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To investigate feasibility, toxicity, and efficacy of accelerated hyperfractionated radiation therapy and concurrent carboplastin/oral etoposide in elderly (> 70 years) patients with stage III non-small-cell lung cancer. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Between January 1988 and June 1993, a total of 58 patients entered a phase II study. Carboplatin (400 mg/m(2)) was given intravenously on days 1 and 29, and etoposide (50 mg/m(2)) was given orally on days 1-21 and 29-42. Accelerated hyperfractionated radiotherapy was administered starting on day 1, with a total dose of 51 Gy in 34 fractions over 3.5 weeks. RESULTS: In 55 evaluable patients, the complete response rate was 27% and the overall response rate was 65%. For the 55 patients, the median survival time was 10 months, and the 1-, 2-, and 5-year survival rates were 45%, 24%, and 9.1%, respectively. The median time until relapse was 8 months and the 1-, 2-, and 5-year relapse-free survival rates were 45%, 20%, and 9.1%, respectively. The median time to local recurrence was 14 months and the 5-year local control rate was 13%; the median time to distant metastasis was 18 months and the 5-year distant metastasis-free rate was 15%. Hematological, esophageal, and bronchopulmonary acute grade 3 or 4 toxicities were observed in 22%, 7%, and 4% of the patients, respectively. There was no grade 5 toxicity or late grade > or = 3 toxicity. CONCLUSION: Concurrent accelerated hyperfractionated radiotherapy and carboplatin/oral etoposide produced relatively low and acceptable toxicity. The survival results appeared to be comparable to those obtained in nonelderly patients with stage III non-small-cell lung cancer treated by full-dose radiation. 相似文献

Purpose: Long-term outcome after radiation therapy for local–regional recurrence of breast cancer after mastectomy is generally poor. This study was performed to evaluate the long-term outcome for a potentially favorable subgroup of patients with chest wall recurrence.Methods and Materials: Of 71 patients with an isolated local–regional recurrence of breast cancer after mastectomy, 18 were identified who met the following favorable selection criteria: 1) a disease-free interval after mastectomy of 2 years or more, 2) an isolated chest wall recurrence, and 3) tumor size < 3 cm or complete excision of the recurrent disease. All 18 patients were treated with local–regional irradiation between 1967 and 1988. Radiotherapy (RT) was delivered to the chest wall to a median total dose of 60 Gy (range 30–66 Gy). Four patients received adjuvant chemotherapy and six patients received adjuvant hormonal therapy.Results: With a median follow-up of 8.4 years, nine of 18 patients were alive and free of disease. The 10-year actuarial overall and cause-specific survivals were 72% and 77%, respectively. The 10-year actuarial relapse-free survival and local control were 42% and 86%, respectively.Conclusion: Treatment for a local–regional recurrence of breast cancer after mastectomy in a favorable subgroup of patients results in a high rate of long-term survival as well as excellent local control. Aggressive treatment is warranted in this favorable subgroup of patients. 1998 Elsevier Science Inc. 相似文献
