Nanobody–chlorin e6 conjugate for Nectin‐4‐mediated tumor targeting and enhanced photodynamic therapy

VIEW, EarlyView.
Nectin‐4 is frequently overexpressed in solid tumors, yet many PDT photosensitizers show poor water solubility and nonspecific uptake. A Nectin‐4‐targeted nanobody–chlorin e6 conjugate (NPC) improves aqueous solubility and selectively accumulates in Nectin‐4‐positive tumor cells.

The feasibility of a heart block with an electron compensation as an alternative whole breast radiotherapy technique in patients with underlying cardiac or pulmonary disease.

PLoS ONE, 2017
PurposeWe aimed to evaluate the feasibility of the heart block with electron compensation (HBE) technique, based on three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) in left-sided breast cancer patients with underlying cardiac or pulmonary disease ...

Tumor cell membrane camouflaged liposomal pharmaceuticals for cascade catalysis‐driven redox modulation and synergistic ROS/RNS antitumor therapy

VIEW, EarlyView.
A tumor cell membrane camouflaged liposomal nanoplatform (C‐MLip@LA) modulates tumor redox homeostasis to enhance targeted therapy. By encapsulating L‐arginine, anchoring MnO2 nanoparticles, and leveraging homologous membrane‐mediated specificity, C‐MLip@LA efficiently triggers a synergistic ROS/RNS cascade, amplifies immunogenic cell death, and ...

Three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy versus intensity-modulated radiotherapy in carcinoma cervix

Journal of Clinical and Scientific Research, 2018
Background: Cervical cancer is the most common gynecological cancer among Indian women. 3D-CRT treatment is associated with more acute and late toxicities, because of close proximity of bladder and rectum to the cervix.

Estimating the Carbon Footprint of External Beam Radiotherapy: Should This Be a Concern for LMICs?

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose This study aims to estimate the carbon footprint associated with external beam radiotherapy in a low‐ and middle‐income country (LMIC) context, specifically at the Uganda Cancer Institute (UCI), and to evaluate whether sustainability should be a priority alongside treatment access in such radiation therapy settings.

Evaluation of 3D-CRT Treatment Planning Techniques for Breast Cancer

ARO-THE SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL OF KOYA UNIVERSITY
This study compares the collapsed cone (CC) and Monte Carlo (MC) algorithms for radiation treatment planning for lumpectomy of the chest wall. The aim is to evaluate how these algorithms affect dose distribution and plan quality improve treatment outcomes.
