Interventional Radiology Society of Australasia Quality Care Guidelines for Renal Tumour Ablation in Australia and New Zealand

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Image‐guided thermal ablation (radiofrequency, cryo‐ and microwave ablation) is a safe and effective primary treatment for small renal mass and localised renal cell carcinoma ≤ 4 cm (T1a) with long‐term cancer‐specific survival rates equivalent to surgical resection (Level A).

Stereotactic body radiotherapy for primary prostate cancer [PDF]

, 2018
Prostate cancer is the most common non-cutaneous cancer in males. There are a number of options for patients with localized early stage disease, including active surveillance for low-risk disease, surgery, brachytherapy, and external beam radiotherapy ...

Adoption of Hypofractionated Radiation Therapy and Quality of Life Outcomes for Localised Prostate Cancer in an Australian Population‐Based Cohort

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives We aimed to evaluate the adoption of hypofractionated radiotherapy (HFRT) for localised prostate cancer (PCa) and the quality of life (QOL) outcomes at a population‐based level in Victoria. Methods This is a population‐based cohort of individuals with PCa registered in the Victorian Prostate Cancer Outcomes Registry (PCOR‐Vic) who ...

Epigenetic modification in radiotherapy and immunotherapy for cancers

Tzu Chi Medical Journal
Radiotherapy (RT) is one of the primary treatment modalities in managing cancer patients. Recently, combined RT and immunotherapy (IT) (i.e., radio-IT [RIT]) have been aggressively investigated in managing cancer patients.

Lung V5 and Planning Target Volume/Lung Volume Ratio as Independent Risk Factors for ≥Grade 2 Radiation Pneumonitis after Moderately Hypofractionated Radiotherapy: A Retrospective Study

Asia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
Lung V5 and the planning target volume/lung volume ratio were identified as independent dosimetric risk factors for clinically significant radiation pneumonitis following moderately hypofractionated radiotherapy for lung cancer. Maintaining V5 < 35% may help mitigate this risk in clinical practice.

Impact of RAS/RAF Mutations on Metastatic Treatment Response Following Total Neoadjuvant Therapy in Patients With Stage IV Rectal Cancer

Asia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
There is limited understanding of the impact of underlying RAS/RAF mutational status on total neoadjuvant therapy metastatic tumor response rates in curative Stage IV rectal cancer patients. Complete metastatic tumor response to TNT was demonstrated in half as many mRAS as wtRAS patients and disease progression was higher in patients harboring RAS ...

The use of stereotactic radiotherapy in the treatment of lung malignancies — a scoping review

Oncology in Clinical Practice
INTRODUCTION: Lung cancer remains as main cause of cancer-related mortality, despite new advances, with many patients remaining inoperable. Novel methods of radiotherapy, including stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), can provide survival benefits in ...

Esophagus toxicity after stereotactic and hypofractionated radiotherapy for central lung tumors: Normal tissue complication probability modeling

, 2018
PURPOSE: To correlate esophagus toxicity and dose-volume histogram (DVH) parameters in order to assess risks, and derive a Normal Tissue Complication Probability (NTCP) model.

Impact of Single Viable Hepatocellular Carcinoma ≤ 3 cm on Survival After Liver Transplantation

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
An Australian multi‐centre cohort study shows significantly lower 5‐year HCC‐specific mortality for those with no viable disease compared to those with a single viable tumour ≤ 3 cm, on imaging prior to transplantation. A lower AFP level and complete response on mRECIST criteria also reduced risk.
