It poses a great challenge to the clinician, because of limited treatment options and strong impairment of the quality of life of the often palliative patients. The SECIMAS study investigated the feasibility of a re-challenge with four catumaxomab intraperitoneal infusions in patients who had already received a first cycle of four infusions in the phase III CASIMAS study, which ...

Metabolic imaging by positrons emission tomography (PET) offers new perspectives in the field of non-small-cell lung cancer radiation therapy. First, it can be used to refine the way nodal and primary tumour target volumes are selected and delineated, in better agreement with the underlying tumour reality. In addition, the non-invasive spatiotemporal mapping of the tumour biology and the organs at risk function might be further used to steer ...
