The long-term impact of irradiation on functional connectivity in brain circuits involved in memory processes after pediatric posterior fossa tumor
CONCLUSION: The results of this study highlight that irradiation has a long-term impact on brain connectivity in brain circuits involved in memory after pediatric PFT with a specific radiation-dose effect in supratentorial structures.PMID:38145791 | DOI:10.1016/j.radonc.2023.110073 (Source: Radiotherapy and Oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology)

Machine-learning prediction of treatment response to stereotactic body radiation therapy in oligometastatic gynecological cancer: a multi-institutional study
CONCLUSION: ML models enable a reliable prediction of the treatment response of oligometastatic lesions receiving SBRT. This approach may assist radiation oncologists to tailor more individualized treatment plans for oligometastatic patients.PMID:38142932 | DOI:10.1016/j.radonc.2023.110072 (Source: Radiotherapy and Oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology)

Choosing the right questions - a systematic review of patient reported outcome measures used in radiotherapy and proton beam therapy
Radiother Oncol. 2023 Dec 22:110071. doi: 10.1016/j.radonc.2023.110071. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe implementation of PROMs into clinical practice has been shown to improve quality of care. This systematic review aims to identify which PROMs are suitable for implementation within routine clinical practice in a radiotherapy or PBT service.The bibliographic databases MEDLINE, EMBASE and EMCARE were searched. Articles published between 1st January 2008 to 1st June 2023, that reported PROMs being utilised as an outcome measure were included. Inclusion criteria also included being written in English, involving human patie...

Statin Use Reduces Radiation-Induced Stroke Risk in Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Patients
CONCLUSIONS: Our study provides evidence supporting the beneficial effects of statin use during the CCRT period in reducing radiation-induced stroke risk among patients with advanced NPC undergoing definitive CCRT. Notably, pravastatin and atorvastatin demonstrated significant reductions in stroke occurrence. Furthermore, the findings suggest a dose-response relationship, where higher cumulative doses and greater daily dose intensity of statin use were associated with a lower risk of stroke.PMID:38142934 | DOI:10.1016/j.radonc.2023.110067 (Source: Radiotherapy and Oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic ...

Volumetric Brain Assessment of Long-Term Head and Neck Cancer Survivors
CONCLUSIONS: Reductions in GM were observed within this cohort of primarily non-nasopharyngeal HNC survivors as compared to a control sample. GM volumes were associated with performance in multiple cognitive domains. Results of this exploratory study support the need for investigation of anatomic brain changes as an important translational corollary to cognitive problems among HNC survivors.PMID:38142935 | DOI:10.1016/j.radonc.2023.110068 (Source: Radiotherapy and Oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology)

Large Institutional Experience of Early Outcomes and Dosimetric Findings with Postoperative Stereotactic Partial Breast Irradiation in Breast Cancer
CONCLUSION: In this large cohort, S-PBI demonstrated favorable dosimetric and toxicity profiles. Considering the reduced radiation exposure to surrounding tissues, external beam PBI with advanced techniques should at least be considered over traditional WBI-based approaches for PBI candidates.PMID:38142936 | DOI:10.1016/j.radonc.2023.110066 (Source: Radiotherapy and Oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology)

Phase I dose-escalation study of nab-paclitaxel combined with cisplatin and capecitabin as induction chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma
CONCLUSION: The RP2D is nab-paclitaxel 200 mg/m2 on day 1, combined with cisplatin 75 mg/mg2 on day 1 and capecitabin1000 mg/m2 on days 1-14, twice a day, every 3 weeks, for three cycles as an IC regimen prior to CCRT.TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04850235.PMID:38135184 | DOI:10.1016/j.radonc.2023.110051 (Source: Radiotherapy and Oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology)
