Purpose To study the influence of Monaco 5.4 treatment planning system (TPS) on the dosimetry of radiotherapy for nasopharynx carcinoma (NPC) under the condition of different segment shape optimization (SSO) times. Methods Fifteen patients with T 3-4 N 0-2 M 0 stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma were enrolled, and each case was designed with SSO of 3, 5, 7 and 10 times respectively. The dose results of the target area and the major organs at risk (OAR) were statistically analyzed by DVH statistics; moreover, the isodose lines of 70Gy, 60Gy and 54Gy were intercepted at the same plane in the transverse, coronal and sagittal views and the segment shapes were compared at the angle of 30°, 120°, 240° and 330° in beam eye view (BEV); In addition, optimization time (OT), delivery time (DT), segments# and MU# were obtained and analyzed by optimization console; the plans were verified and analyzed by using ArcCheck phantom. Results For target area D 2 , the results of the SSO7 group and the SSO10 group were similar and both better than those of SSO3 and SSO5 groups, and the D 2 results of the SSO3 group were notable higher than those of the other three groups; for the major OARs, the results of the maximum dose of spinal cord, brain stem, and lens and the mean dose and V 30 of parotid glands showed the same trend. It showed that SSO7 and SSO10 share similar dose results, too which are notable better than the similar dose results shared by SSO3 and SSO5; in the dose deprogram distribution of 70Gy, 60Gy and 54Gy, partial 70Gy dose spillover occurred in both groups SSO3 and SSO5 and it was more obvious in group SSO3. While there was a no significant dose spillover in group SSO7 and group SSO10; in the sub-field alignment comparison under the same angle, the alignment became more complicated and the sub-fields were smaller as the number of SSO increased; the results of segment#, MU# and plan delivery time between different SSO groups were slightly different, while the plan optimization time changed significantly. The difference between group SSO3 and group SSO10 was more than 500s; the results were compared in ArcCheck, there was no significant difference between the groups. Conclusions The user-defined SSO function of Monaco 5.4 TPS effectively balances the relationship between plan design efficiency and plan quality. When SSO is 7, it is better value for efficiency and quality in clinical radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
目的:比较术中消融联合化疗和单纯化疗在Ⅳ期胰腺癌治疗中的效果,并初步探讨消融联合化疗的潜在细胞学机制.方法:入选南京医科大学第二附属医院收治的Ⅳ期胰腺癌患者,分为单纯化疗组(化疗组,n=13)与术中消融联合化疗组(消融组,n=14),分析患者临床资料,对比肿瘤指标、血常规指标及术后生存期等.同时,采用Boyden小室建立人胰腺癌细胞渗透性实验模型,探究超低温冷冻对人胰腺癌细胞渗透性的影响.结果:消融组治疗后总胆红素(total bilirubin,TB)显著低于化疗组,而白蛋白(albumin,ALB)显著高于化疗组(P<0.01).两组CA19-9在治疗前后均没有显著差异.消融组治疗前后的白细胞数和中性粒细胞百分比均低于化疗组(P<0.05).消融组治疗前血小板数高于化疗组(P<0.05).化疗组治疗后的红细胞数显著低于治疗前(P<0.01).消融组治疗后的中性粒细胞百分比显著高于治疗前(P<0.01).消融组术后的生存期显著优于化疗组(P=0.019).经过超低温冷冻的胰腺癌细胞渗透性显著增强(P<0.01).结论:术中消融联合化疗较单纯化疗对Ⅳ期胰腺癌的治疗效果更好,患者生存期延长.
Objective:To explore the significance of the clinical target volume (CTV) dose optimization in the upper and middle neck in protecting the laryngopharynx, anterior and posterior rings during intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and multimodal imaging system for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods:Clinical data of 298 nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients admitted to Jiangsu Cancer Hospital from 2016 to 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the following five strategies of CTV dose optimization in the upper and middle neck: group A, complete optimization of bilateral cervical lymph nodes (CLNs), that is, the CTV doses of bilateral CLNs were 50.4 Gy; group B, complete optimization of unilateral CLNs, that is, the CTV dose of unilateral CLNs was 50.4 Gy and the contralateral CLNs was 60 Gy; group C, incomplete optimization of bilateral CLNs, that is, the CTV doses of bilateral CLNs were 50.4 Gy, while the suspicious positive CLNs were selectively boosted to 60 Gy; group D, incomplete optimization of unilateral CLNs, that is, the CTV dose of unilateral CLNs was 50.4 Gy and the suspicious positive CLNs were selectively boosted to 60 Gy, and the CTV dose of contralateral side was 60 Gy; group E: no optimization, that is, the CTV doses of bilateral CLNs were 60 Gy.Results:Among 298 patients, 215 patients received dose optimization and 83 cases did not receive dose optimization. In the dose optimization schemes, 114 cases were assigned in group A, 36 cases in group B, 60 cases in group C and 5 cases in group D. The median (range) follow-up time was 28.5(6.0-46.3) months. The overall survival rate was 95.6%, the progression-free survival rate was 84.2% and the locoregional control rate of CLNs was 98.0%. Local relapse of CLNs occurred in six patients, including 1 case of retropharyngeal lymph node, 4 cases of Ⅱ area and 1 case of Ⅳ area. The P values of average dose of laryngopharynx in group A, group B, group C and group D compared with that in group E were<0.001, 0.016, 0.001 and 0.572, respectively. The P values of the average dose of the anterior ring in group A, group B, group C and group D compared with that in group E were<0.001, 0.011, <0.001 and 0.805, respectively. The P values of the average dose of the posterior ring in group A, group B, group C and group D compared with that in group E were<0.001, 0.004, <0.001 and 0.252, respectively.Conclusions:Combined with the metastatic rules of CLNs and multimodal imaging system, it is safe to optimize the CTV dose of the upper and middle neck during IMRT in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients, which can significantly reduce the doses of laryngopharynx, anterior and posterior rings, thereby providing evidence for reducing the CTV dose in the upper and middle neck.

Objective:To observe the short-term efficacy and side effects of three kinds of nedaplatin-based chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods: A total of 20 patients with NSCLC were treated with nedaplatin-based chemotherapies for two treatment cycles,then the efficacy and toxicity were evaluated in accordance with WHO criteria. Results: There were 2 CR pts,7 PR pts,12 SD pts and 1PD respectively.The total response rate was 45.0%.The major adverse event marrow suppression was observed mainly to I or II degrees,with grade Ⅲ,Ⅳ toxicity of neutropenia in 7 pts(35.0%) and thrombocytopenia in 5 pts(25.0 %).After processing,previous adverse reactions were found disappeared and didn′t affect further step of chemotherapy.No serious hepatorenal damage was found.Gastro-intestinal tract toxicities were relatively mild and usually at grade Ⅱ or below.Conclusion:It′s beneficial for the patients with NSCLC to be given nedaplatin-based chemotherapies,while long follow-up will be necessary to determine the influence of those therapies on NSCLC.
Objective:Docetaxel was used in a phase Ⅱ trial in the combination with cisplatin for esophageal cancer.The anti-tumor response,toxicity and suevival of the treated patients were evaluated.Methods:Thirty patients with advanced unresectable or complicated with metastasis were allotted,twenty patients were primary chemotherapy while ten patients received adjuvant chemotherapy after operation.Patrents were given docetaxel 75 mg/m2 by 1-hour infusion on the first day,and cisplatin 40 mg/m2 daily on the second day and the third day.Treatment was recycled every 21 days.Results:Thirty patients completed a median of 2 cycles and 28 patients were evaluable for response.Major objective responses were observed in 16 patients(57.1%),including 4 complete response(14.2%),and 12 partial response(42.8%).The median time to tumor progression was 5.2 months.The median actuarial survival was 9.5 months.Twenty-eight patients were assessable for toxicity.The most common nonhematologic toxicity was alopecia.Grade 3 to 4 nentropenia was observed in 13.3﹪ of the pantients.Conclusion:The combination of docetaxel and cisplatin can be considered as a main regimen in the treatment of advanced esophageal cancer.
