With improved clinical response rates, interest grew in a non-operative approach/watch and wait (WaW) for this disease. In 2020, the working groups of ACO/AIO/ARO published a consensus statement on the use of TNT, including a non-operative approach. However, the best combination scheme remains unclear. Despite the increasing use of TNT, there is a lack of comprehensive data on its current implementation and practices. To address this knowledge gap, a multicenter survey was conducted to capture the use of TNT protocols in German-speaking radiotherapy departments. At the beginning of 2023, a GDPR-compliant online survey was conducted in Germany, Austria, and German-speaking Switzerland. The questionnaire comprised 43 questions covering various aspects of TNT, including chemotherapy and WaW concepts. Most respondents (98.4%) confirmed awareness of the consensus on TNT for rectal cancer. Institutions treated an average of 30.22 rectal cancer patients annually. Most respondents (76.2%) reported treating over 80% of patients neoadjuvantly. Regarding TNT, 33.3% treated 21-50% with such a protocol. No significant association was found between the institution type and TNT application. In 62/63 cases, tumor board discussion was standard before offering TNT. VMAT was the predominant technique (82.5%). For rectal cancer dosing, the 50/50.4Gy scheme was most common, followed by 45Gy with a boost and the 5 × 5Gy scheme. Dosing schemes for TNT varied slightly, with more participants reporting the use of 5 × 5Gy compared to radiation therapy for rectal cancer in general. CBCT was the primary IGRT method (88.9%). Larger hospitals typically administered chemotherapy themselves, while private practices collaborated with medical oncologists (p < 0.0001). The most common concurrent chemotherapy drugs were 5-fluorouracil/capecitabine (64.4%) and oxaliplatin (37.3%). A WaW strategy was reported to be institutional implemented by 63.8%. The timing of offering WaW was split, with 50% offering it after radiochemotherapy and 47% during the informed consent talk. For planned WaW, 62% prefer normofractionated TNT. TNT appears to be widely implemented in the German-speaking radio-oncological community, regardless of the type of institution. Image-guided therapy, multidisciplinary team decisions, and internal guidelines play an important role. TNT seems to have already altered treatment protocols for rectal cancer toward an organ-preserving approach in selected cases.

Patients with CLD always experience increased energy expenditure, reduced appetite, and low protein synthesis, all of which might lead to weight loss. However, metabolic disturbances, hormonal imbalances, inflammatory signaling, immobility, drugs, and alterations in nutrient metabolism can contribute to the development and exacerbation of obesity.

Additionally, overlooking the lethal morbidities of obesity for survival benefits full of suffering seems to be an illogical idea.

For prognostic and therapeutic reasons, hypoxia identification is critical, and recent developments in imaging and molecular methods have enhanced our capacity to precisely locate underoxygenated areas inside tumors. Furthermore, targeted therapies that take advantage of hypoxia provide a potential new direction in the treatment of cancer. Therapeutic approaches that specifically target hypoxic conditions in tumors without causing adverse effects are being led by hypoxia-targeted nanocarriers and hypoxia-activated prodrugs (HAPs). This review provides an extensive overview of this dynamic and clinically significant area of oncology research by synthesizing current knowledge about the mechanisms of hypoxia in cancer, highlighting state-of-the-art detection methodologies, and assessing the potential and efficacy of hypoxia-targeted therapies.</p>","PeriodicalId":10337,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and Experimental Medicine","volume":"24 1","pages":"235"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11449960/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142364640","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
