BACKGROUND/AIM: To compare absolute volume (AV) assessment according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) for the response evaluation of desmoid tumors (DTs) treated with radiotherapy.
Eighteen patients with DTs ≥3 cm in size were included.
The median follow-up duration was 78.0 months. Five patients achieved a complete response according to RECIST, seven reached a partial response (PR), and one eventually exhibited progression. The overall response rate was 61%, the median time to PR was 8.0 months. Six patients achieved stable disease, although three developed progressions. Of the six patients with a PR, the median change in maximum diameter was -46%, and the median change in maximum volume was -84%. Three patients could have been diagnosed with progression at least 6 months earlier if the AV increment was considered.
An AV assessment is essential for an accurate response assessment of DTs and radiotherapy seems feasible as a first-line treatment for DTs.
背景/目的:比较接受放疗的硬纤维瘤(DT)患者的实体瘤反应评估标准(RECIST)的绝对体积(AV)评估,以评估其反应。
共纳入 18 名大小≥3 cm 的 DT 患者。
中位随访时间为 78.0 个月。5 名患者根据 RECIST 达到完全缓解,7 名达到部分缓解(PR),1 名最终出现进展。总缓解率为 61%,PR 的中位时间为 8.0 个月。6 名患者疾病稳定,尽管其中 3 名出现进展。在 6 名 PR 患者中,最大直径的中位变化为-46%,最大体积的中位变化为-84%。如果考虑 AV 增量,则有 3 名患者至少可以提前 6 个月诊断为进展。
AV 评估对于 DT 的准确反应评估至关重要,放疗似乎是 DT 的一线治疗方法。
