Therapeutic approach in glioblastoma multiforme with primitive neuroectodermal tumor components: case report and review of the literature [PDF]
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and aggressive malignant glioma that is treated with first-line therapy, using surgical resection followed by local radiotherapy and concomitant/adjuvant temozolomide (TMZ) treatment.

Local vaccination and systemic tumor suppression via irradiation and manganese adjuvant in mice [PDF]
Presently 4T-1 luc cells were irradiated with proton under ultra-high dose rate FLASH or with gamma-ray with conventional dose rate, and then subcutaneous vaccination with or without Mn immuno-enhancing adjuvant into the mice for three times. One week later, we injected untreated 4T-1 luc cells on the other side of the vaccinated mice, and found that ...

Mathematical modeling of the treatment response of resection plus combined chemotherapy and different types of radiation therapy in a glioblastoma patient [PDF]
Background: Gliomas are the most common brain tumors, which vary from low to high-grade. Despite the improvements in imaging techniques in the last decade, all parts of the tumor are not visible in these images, due to having a threshold of detection often lower than most of the tumor.

Mathematical modeling of glioma invasion and therapy approaches via kinetic theory of active particles [PDF]
A multiscale model for glioma spread in brain tissue under the influence of vascularization and vascular endothelial growth factors is proposed. It accounts for the interplay between the different components of the neoplasm and the healthy tissue and it investigates and compares various therapy approaches.

Factors modifying the risk for developing acute skin toxicity after whole-breast intensity modulated radiotherapy [PDF]
Background: After breast-conserving radiation therapy most patients experience acute skin toxicity to some degree. This may impair patients' quality of life, cause pain and discomfort. In this study, we investigated treatment and patient-related factors,
