Abstract

Radiation therapy is used increasingly as a component of multidisciplinary treatment for many solid tumors. One complication of such treatment is the development of radiation-associated sarcoma (RAS). Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS), previously termed "malignant fibrous histiocytoma" (MFH) is the most common histologic subtype of RAS. This study investigated the clinical outcomes for patients with radiation-associated UPS (RA-UPS/MFH). The study identified 1068 patients with UPS/MFH treated at the authors' institution. Patient and tumor factors were collected and compared. Regression analysis was performed to identify independent predictors of survival. A matched-cohort survival and recurrence analysis was performed for radiation-associated and sporadic UPS/MFH. The findings showed that RA-UPS/MFH comprised 5.1 % of the UPS population. The median latency to the development of RA-UPS/MFH was 9.3 years. The 5-year disease-specific survival (DSS) was 52.2 % for patients identified with RA-UPS/MFH (n = 55) compared with 76.4 % for patients with unmatched sporadic UPS/MFH (n = 1,013; p < 0.001). A matched-cohort analysis also demonstrated that the 5-year DSS was significantly worse for RA-UPS/MFH (52.2 vs 73.4 %; p = 0.00...Continue Reading

B-cell lymphomas include lymphomas that affect B cells. This subtype of cancer accounts for over 80% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas in the US. Here is the latest research.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.
