However, the predictive value of lymphocyte-related parameters, such as lymphocyte count (L), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), is not yet fully understood. Moreover, chemotherapy agents like fluorouracil and cisplatin may have an impact on lymphocyte dynamics. This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the prognostic value of these parameters in EC patients undergoing concurrent CRT (eg, radiotherapy combined with fluorouracil and cisplatin), particularly in the context of specific chemotherapy regimens.MethodsElectronic databases were comprehensively searched up to September 2023 for research that assesses the prognostic role of lymphocyte-related indicators in EC patients undergoing CRT. Combined Hazard Ratios (HR) were estimated with a random-effects model, supplemented by meta-regression and subgroup analyses for enhanced insights.ResultsOf the 41 studies selected for qualitative evaluation, 22 were eligible for meta-analysis. These results revealed that increased pre-NLR (HR = 1.87, 95% CI = 1.55-2.26), lower pre-LMR (HR = 1.94, 95% CI = 1.36-2.77), lower dur-L (HR = 1.56, 95% CI = 1.28-1.90), and higher post-NLR (HR = 1.95, 95% CI = 1.08-3.51) predicted poorer overall survival (OS). Lower pre-LMR (HR = 1.73, 95% CI = 1.14-2.65) and lower dur-L (HR = 1.39, 95% CI = 1.14-1.69) were significant predictors of worse progression-free survival (PFS). The predominant chemotherapy regimen analyzed was fluorouracil combined with cisplatin, which significantly influenced lymphocyte counts and ratios during treatment.ConclusionsOur meta-analysis indicates that pre-treatment NLR, pre-treatment LMR, during-treatment L, and post-treatment NLR are valuable prognostic biomarkers for EC undergoing CRT, particularly in those treated with fluorouracil and cisplatin.

Up to 50% of the patients with initial diagnosis of uveal melanoma develop metastases within few years and the liver represents the main site of metastatic spread. Patients with metastatic disease have a generally poor prognosis and few treatment options are available. In the last decades, the role of interventional radiology has expanded the range of treatment options and different minimally invasive liver-directed therapies were developed for liver metastases from uveal melanoma. The purpose of our systematic review was to analyze and review techniques, outcomes and safety of targeted-liver minimally invasive therapies in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma.MethodsAccording to PRISMA criteria, an extensive literature research (including more than 1600 articles) was finalized to collect the main articles on minimally invasive therapies.

ECT, which combines chemotherapy with the application of an electric field to enhance drug uptake by tumor cells, has shown promise as a local treatment, particularly in cases where conventional therapies such as radiotherapy have been exhausted or are unsuitable. The review, conducted according to SANRA guidelines, included 18 studies, on ECT in anorectal tumors, ranging from preclinical trials in dogs to case reports and clinical studies in humans. The findings indicate that ECT can achieve high tumor overall response rates (70-100%) with minimal side effects, offering benefits such as tumor reduction and preserved organ function. These results highlight the potential of ECT to provide not only tumor reduction but also the preservation of vital organ function with a relatively low toxicity profile. However, further comparative research is necessary to substantiate its role as a standard therapeutic option. Moreover, the evidence is limited by significant heterogeneity across studies, small sample sizes, and a lack of comparative research with other local treatments like radiotherapy and cryosurgery. Consequently, while ECT appears to be a promising option, particularly for palliative care or in a neoadjuvant setting, it cannot yet be recommended as a standard treatment. Future research should focus on larger, more robust studies with standardized outcomes and explore the potential synergy between ECT and other therapies to establish its place in the treatment of anorectal tumors.</p>","PeriodicalId":22203,"journal":{"name":"Technology in Cancer Research & Treatment","volume":"24 ","pages":"15330338251349596"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12246664/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144584941","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}

The GRANT score parameters included tumor grade, age, pathological T-stage, and N-stage. Patients were stratified into three risk groups (0-1 vs 2 vs 3-4 risk factors). Cancer-specific survival (CSS) was assessed using the Kaplan-Meier method, and differences between groups were evaluated using the log-rank test. Harrell's c-index was used to measure model accuracy, and restricted mean survival time (RMST) was calculated for up to 120 months.ResultsA total of 1942 patients were included. The median follow-up was 64.6 months. At 60 months, CSS was 93.2% (95%CI 91.7%-94.6%) for group 1, 60.8% (95%CI 54.0%-78.6%) for group 2, and 26% (95%CI 15.7%-42.9%) for group 3, with significant differences between each group (p < 0.001).
