Sandwich chemotherapy as first postoperative treatment might cause resistance to ensuing irradiation. Simultaneous radiochemotherapy might prevent this.
Twenty-nine children with high-grade glioma were treated from 1997-1999. The median age was 11.1 years. Tumor locations included: cerebral cortex 12, deep cerebral locations 11, cerebellum 3, spinal cord 3. Pons was excluded. Total (n = 9), subtotal (n = 3) and partial (n = 9) tumor resection or biopsy (n = 7) were followed by radiochemotherapy: fractionated radiation (1.8 Gyld up to 59.4 Gy) was given simultaneously with two cycles of chemotherapy (cisplatin 20 mg/m2/d x 5d, etoposide 100 mg/m2/d x 3d, and cisplatin, etoposide, ifosfamide: 1.5 g/m2/d). The data of a previous protocol (Cancer 89: 2131-7, 2000) in the same population were used as controls.
Early progressive disease (PD 2 out of 25 patients) was significantly less frequent as compared to the control group (p = 0.031). The toxicity appeared tolerable.
三明治化疗作为术后首次治疗可能会导致对后续放疗产生耐药性。同步放化疗可能会预防这种情况。
1997年至1999年对29例高级别胶质瘤患儿进行了治疗。中位年龄为11.1岁。肿瘤位置包括:大脑皮质12例,脑深部位置11例,小脑3例,脊髓3例。脑桥被排除在外。在全切除(n = 9)、次全切除(n = 3)、部分切除(n = 9)或活检(n = 7)后进行同步放化疗:分割放疗(1.8 Gy/天,总量达59.4 Gy)与两个周期的化疗(顺铂20 mg/m²/天×5天,依托泊苷100 mg/m²/天×3天,以及顺铂、依托泊苷、异环磷酰胺:1.5 g/m²/天)同时进行。同一人群中先前方案(《癌症》89: 2131 - 2137, 2000)的数据用作对照。
与对照组相比,早期进展性疾病(25例患者中有2例出现进展性疾病)的发生率显著降低(p = 0.031)。毒性似乎可以耐受。
