Radiological Monitoring of the Treatment of Solid Tumors in Practice

Abstract: !Purpose: Thanks to advances in cancer therapy, the diagnosis of "incurable cancer" is increasingly able to be changed to a chronic disease that is manageable over long periods, resulting in a change in the clinical management of cancer patients with solid tumors. New parameters are needed to measure the success of targeted therapy in clinical trials. Materials and Methods: Review article on the basis of selective literature research. Results: In order to assess how well solid tumors respond to treatment, size… Show more

“…For too long, drug approval in solid cancer has been based on the RECIST convention, namely, tumor shrinkage 45 , 46 ( Figure 2 ). This is the case despite the near-universal recognition that the tumor shrinkage end point is a relic of the cytotoxic era and far from a precision end point.…”

“…So führt Ipilimumab® als molekularer anti-CTLA-4-Antikörper zu einer Immunreaktion durch Aktivierung von T-Zellen mit assoziierter Migration von Lymphozyten und Makrophagen in das Tumorgewebe. In manchen Fällen resultiert dies in einen messbaren Pseudoprogress oder in einer radiologisch erstmaligen Detektion vormals okkulter Tumorläsionen [6,11]. CR "complete response", PR "partial response", PD "progressive disease", SD "stable disease".…”

“…Anatomic and functional imaging is utilized to assist with treatment response. However, with the availability of newer agents that target immunological, antiangiogenic, antihormonal, and antimetabolic pathways, methods of assessing effi cacy of treatments are being reevaluated (Ganten et al 2014 ). A summary of differences between WHO and RECIST criteria is described below (Table 13.1 ).…”

“…More recently, RECIST has been modifi ed to take functional biological information into consideration (Ganten et al 2014 ). The PERCIST (PET Response Criteria in Solid Tumors) was proposed in 2009 and takes into account biological information from PET imaging, especially in those patients treated with newer therapies, during response evaluation.…”
