Oncosurgical operations \u0000are among the most traumatic; the volume of surgical intervention depends on the stage of the tumor process and its prevalence, the presence of \u0000metastases, germination in neighboring tissues and organs, and concomitant diseases. Particular importance is attached to the anesthetic management of the perioperative period. \u0000Regional anesthesia is practically not used for several reasons in oncosurgical reconstructive and plastic interventions on the abdominal organs. In choosing the method of anesthesia, the qualification of the anesthetist plays a role, especially when performing high epidural anesthesia, \u0000which is quite technically complicated. The emergence of highly effective anesthetics and high-quality sets for epidural anesthesia has significantly \u0000expanded the scope of this type of anesthesia in oncosurgical practice. \u0000This study aimed to demonstrate the possibilities and advantages of epidural anesthesia in the perioperative period using the described clinical case as an example. \u0000Methods: Patient N. was admitted to the clinic for surgical treatment for a malignant neoplasm of the transverse colon without clinical signs \u0000of obstruction of the lumen of the large intestine. She underwent laparotomy, subtotal colectomy with anastomosis, resection of the omentum, and \u0000lymph node dissection. Epidural anesthesia with catheterization of the epidural space and administration of ropivacaine and morphine was used \u0000as an anesthetic aid. \u0000Results: Adequate pain relief, relaxation, the absence of clinically significant autonomic reactions in the intraoperative period, and adequate \u0000pain relief without narcotic analgesics in the postoperative period were achieved. The patient was activated on Day 3-5 after surgery. Subjectively, \u0000the patient emphasized the comfortable course of the perioperative period. \u0000Conclusion: Thus, our experience in the use of regional (epidural) anesthesia in oncosurgical practice as an isolated method of anesthesia, \u0000subject to technically competent and accurate execution of the procedure, allows us to recommend it as a reasonable alternative or component of \u0000generally accepted traditional general anesthesia in order to reduce the risk of anesthesia, adequate and effective anesthesia in the perioperative \u0000period and optimization of economic and logistical costs in the postoperative period.","PeriodicalId":19480,"journal":{"name":"Oncologia i radiologia Kazakhstana","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82927406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drug therapy is an essential component of cancer treatment. The potential of drug therapy is not the same in different human tumors. Providing an oncological patient with a full range of modern medicines is one of the main tasks of the healthcare system. Currently, the problem of the availability of drug provision for cancer patients is relevant. \u0000Today, there is a regional disparity in the provision of drug care in the country: the availability of drugs for patients is highly dependent on the \u0000economic development of the region of their residence. Drugs, especially targeted and immuno-oncological drugs, are more available in the cities \u0000of republican significance and the capital city. \u0000The study aimed to analyze the problems and find ways to improve drug provision for cancer patients in the Republic of Kazakhstan. \u0000Methods included the analysis of the current drug provision for cancer patients in the Republic of Kazakhstan, identifying problematic issues, \u0000finding solutions, and developing correct unified approaches to determining the needs of cancer patients for drugs at all stages of care. \u0000The study results highlight the current problems of drug supply for cancer patients and allow the development of ways to improve it, including \u0000in the context of combating the COVID-19 pandemic. \u0000Conclusion: Breakthrough technologies and new regimens of cancer treatment appear almost every month. Therefore, it is essential to make \u0000balanced and rational decisions in this area, rather than applying simplified administrative schemes for orders and purchases. Today, the oncologists of Kazakhstan can choose therapy for each cancer patient when they possess the results of relevant molecular genetic studies, know the \u0000characteristics of the tumor and the body, and have а conclusion of the multidisciplinary team. All the above gives hope for a transition to a more \u0000humane attitude towards patients when the drug choice depends on the chosen therapy’s clinical efficacy and purposefulness instead of the drug \u0000origin or price. The damage from ineffective drugs often exceeds by far the cost of effective drugs and technologies, while these effective drugs will \u0000not always be the most expensive. It is a great art to choose the drug that a particular oncological patient needs.","PeriodicalId":19480,"journal":{"name":"Oncologia i radiologia Kazakhstana","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91157936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With an unprecedented understanding of the molecular pathways that drive the development \u0000and progression of human cancers, novel targeted therapies have become an exciting new development for anticancer medicine. These \u0000targeted therapies, also known as biologic therapies, have become a primary treatment modality by blocking the growth of cancer cells \u0000by specifically targeting molecules required for cell growth and tumorigenesis. However, due to their specificity, these new therapies are \u0000expected to have better efficacy and limited adverse side effects than other treatment options, including hormonal and chemotherapy. \u0000The study aimed to present an overview of the advantages and prospects of targeted therapy in oncological practice. \u0000Methods: The search was carried out in the following databases: Scopus, Medline, Cochrane, PubMed, and Science Direct for 2016- \u00002021. Sources were searched for the following keywords: clinical trials, immunotherapy, monoclonal antibodies, small molecular weight \u0000inhibitors, and targeted therapy. \u0000Results: This review explores the clinical development, successes, and challenges facing targeted anticancer therapies, including small \u0000molecule inhibitors and antibody-targeted therapies.

However, targeted drugs show low activity in monotherapy. In addition, the selection of patients for targeted \u0000therapy remains a difficult task since there are not enough reliable biomarkers to predict the action of most targeted agents.

Bone sarcomas \u0000are the most aggressive human MNs. This urges to determine the prognostic factors of the disease, timely assess the treatment effect, and identify \u0000possible relapses. \u0000The study aimed to improve the early diagnosis of bone sarcomas, to improve and increase the oncological alertness of doctors by establishing \u0000the trends in bone sarcoma incidence and mortality in the Republic of Kazakhstan in 2010-2019, and this disease incidence and mortality in 2019 \u0000by age, gender, bone tumor histotype and region of the country. \u0000Methods: The study included the data of patients registered at the RK National Cancer Registry in 2010-2019 with a “bone sarcoma” diagnosis (ICD-10 code: C40-C41). The incidence of bone sarcomas was presented as absolute and crude rates per 100,000 population. Absolute \u0000standardized morbidity and mortality were calculated using the World Standard.

BC ranks first in incidence and third in mortality among malignant neoplasms in women. Despite many advances in the treatment of BC, the prognosis for patients with \u0000metastatic BC remains poor. The life expectancy of these patients is usually about one year. The accuracy of diagnosis and determining the number \u0000and sizes of oligometastases by contrasted brain MRI or PET-CT with methionine is vital for effective cancer treatment. The emergence of treatment \u0000techniques, such as stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic radiotherapy (SRSR), significantly improved the disease prognosis. The use of \u0000high-tech radiation therapy in patients with oligometastases from breast carcinoma improves local control of intracranial lesions, prevents death, \u0000maintains the quality of life, and improves overall survival. \u0000The study aimed to analyze the results of key prospective studies on aspects of radiation therapy for BC metastases to the brain. \u0000Methods: This review included key randomized trials on the use of radiation therapy for BC metastases in the brain. The search was conducted \u0000in the PubMed database for 2005-2020 by the keywords “radiation therapy,” “breast cancer,” and “brain metastases.” \u0000Results: Reduced treatment time due to stereotactic radiosurgery and radiotherapy allows for maintaining productive life without expressed \u0000neurological symptoms. SRS is efficient in patients with up to five oligometastases in BC. More metastases require total brain exposure, which is a \u0000poor prognostic factor. In prospective studies, SRS in BC with brain metastases is recommended to improve the quality of life. \u0000Conclusion: The treatment of BC with brain metastases requires a multidisciplinary approach based on the prevalence of the process, previous \u0000therapy, general somatic status, comorbidities, and available therapy options. Systemic therapy for BC patients with brain metastases follows \u0000several schemes that demonstrate their therapeutic effectiveness.","PeriodicalId":19480,"journal":{"name":"Oncologia i radiologia Kazakhstana","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87395029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
