| 1 | Hyperthermia combined with chemotherapy vs chemotherapy in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer:A multicenter retrospective observational comparative study显示文摘BACKGROUND Several studies report the useful therapeutic results of regional hyperthermia in association with chemotherapy(CHT) and radiotherapy for the treatment of pancreatic cancer. Modulated electrohyperthermia(mEHT) is a new hyperthermia technique that induces immunogenic death or apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells in laboratory experiments and increases tumor response rate and survival in pancreatic cancer patients, offering beneficial therapeutic effects against this severe type of cancer.AIM To assess survival, tumor response and toxicity of mEHT alone or combined with CHT compared with CHT for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer.METHODS This was a retrospective data collection on patients affected by locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer(stage Ⅲ and IV) performed in 9 Italian centers, members of International Clinical Hyperthermia Society-Italian Network. This study included 217 patients, 128(59%) of them were treated with CHT(no-mEHT) and 89(41%) patients received mEHT alone or in association with CHT. mEHT treatments were performed applying a power of 60-150 watts for 40-90 min, simultaneously or within 72 h of administration of CHT.RESULTS Median patients’ age was 67 years(range 31-92 years). mEHT group had a median overall survival greater than non-mEHT group(20 mo, range 1.6-24, vs 9 mo, range 0.4-56.25, P < 0.001). mEHT group showed a higher number of partial responses(45% vs 24%, P = 0.0018) and a lower number of progressions(4% vs 31%, P < 0.001) than the no-mEHT group, at the three months follow-up. Adverse events were observed as mild skin burns in 2.6% of mEHT sessions.CONCLUSION mEHT seems safe and has beneficial effects on survival and tumor response of stage Ⅲ-IV pancreatic tumor treatment. Further randomized studies are warranted to confirm or not these results. | Giammaria Fiorentini Donatella Sarti Andrea Mambrini Ivano Hammarberg Ferri Massimo Bonucci Paola Giordano Sciacca Marco Ballerini Salvatore Bonanno Carlo Milandri Roberto Nani Stefano Guadagni Patrizia Dentico Caterina Fiorentini | 2023 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2023，14，6： | 0 |
