ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the short-term efficacy and the influencing factorof zoledroniacid combined with ra-diotherapy and single radiotherapy in the treatmenof bone metastasiin non-small cell lung cance(NSCL) .MethodTotally 117 NSCLpatientwith bone metastase(153 lesions) receiving the bone lesion radiotherapy in the TumoCenteof ouhospital from 2009 to 2013 were selected and treated by zoledroniacid combined with radiotherapy (combined therapy group ,n=54) and the single radiotherapy (single radiotherapy group ,n=63) .The bone pain relief and influence factorwere analyzed .ResultThe effective ratein the single radiotherapy group and the combined radiotherapy group were 69 .74% and 92 .21% respectively (χ2 =13 .75 ,P＜0 .01);the multivariate Logistiregression analysishowed thathe bone pain relief wacorrelated with the treatmenmode ,moreovethe bone pain relief rate in the combined therapy group wasignificantly highethan thain the single therapy group (OR=4 .60 ,95% CI:1 .23-17 .20 ,P=0 .02) .In the subgroup analysiof treatmenmode,the patientwith osteolytile-sions(OR=26 .59 ,95% CI:3 .29-215 .12 ,P=0 .00) had betteeffec.The combined therapy group had more superiority in the as-pecof non-skeletal related eventoccurrence (OR=4 .40 ,95% CI:1 .49 -12 .99 ,P=0 .01) .Conclusion Radiotherapy combined with zoledroniacid habettecurative effeccompared with single radiotherapy in the NSCLC patientwith bone metastasi.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the dosimetry difference among three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3 DCRT),simplified intensity-modulated radiotherapy (sIMRT) and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in whole pelvic irradiation in postoperative rectal carcinoma,in order to optimize the protocol for clinical practice.Methods From 2006 to 2008,10 patients with stage II and ID rectal cancer after radical resection (Dixon surgery) participated in this study.3DCRT,sIMRT and IMRT were performed for each patient.The dose distribution of target volume and normal tissues,conformal index (CI) and HI were analyzed using the dose-volume histogram (DVH).Results The CI for PTV of IMRT and sIMRT was superior to that of 3DCRT.3DCRT had the best HI in PTV target area dose distribution,while IMRT was similar with sIMRT,however,there were no significant difference among them.As regarded as the protection on organs at risk,for bladder,IMRT was superior to 3DCRT and slightly better than sIMRT;for small intestine,sIMRT showed better performance than 3DCRT while IMRT was better than sIMRT but with no significant difference;for colon,no dosimetry difference was found among three plans;for caput femoris,IMRT and sIMRT were better than 3DCRT.Additionally,sIMRT was similar to 3DCRT in MU of segments,but significantly lower than IMRT.The mean values of total MU for 3DCRT,sIMRT and IMRT were 569.73 ±48.69,542.97 ±69.78,and 770.25 ±73.12,respectively.Conclusions All of 3DCRT,sIMRT and IMRT could provide target area with sufficient and accurate dose,meanwhile they could also protect organs at risk well on rectal cancer after radical resection.Compared with 3DCRT plan and IMRT plan,sIMRT plan might be the optimal plan for clinical practice.
