  • Assessing Tumor Response and Detecting Recurrence in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma on Targeted Therapy: Importance of Size and Attenuation on Contrast-Enhanced CT
    Genitourinary Imaging • Original Research Smith et al. Size and Attenuation of Metastatic RCC on CECT Genitourinary Imaging Original Research Assessing Tumor Response and Detecting Recurrence in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma on Targeted Therapy: Importance of Size and Attenuation on Contrast-Enhanced CT Andrew Dennis Smith1 OBJECTIVE. The aim of this study was to improve response assessment in patients with Michael L. Lieber metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) on antiangiogenic targeted therapy by evaluating Shetal N. Shah changes in both tumor size and attenuation and by detecting unique patterns of contrast en- hancement on contrast-enhanced CT (CECT). Smith AD, Lieber ML, Shah SN MATERIALS AND METHODS. Tumor long-axis measurements and volumetric mean tumor attenuation of target lesions on CECT images were correlated with time to progression in 53 patients with metastatic clear cell RCC treated with first-line sorafenib or sunitinib. The frequencies of specific patterns of tumor progression were assessed. The data were used to develop new imaging criteria, the size and attenuation CT (SACT) criteria. CECT findings were evaluated using the SACT criteria, Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RE- CIST), and modified Choi criteria, and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate sur- vival functions. RESULTS. One or more target metastatic lesions had decreased attenuation of ≥ 40 HU in 59% of patients with progression-free survival of > 250 days (n = 44) after initiating targeted therapy; 0% of patients with earlier disease progression (n = 9) had this finding. A favorable response based on SACT criteria had a sensitivity of 75% and specificity of 100% for identify- ing patients with progression-free survival of > 250 days, versus 16% and 100%, respectively, for RECIST and 93% and 44% for the modified Choi criteria.

It was demonstrated that cancer patients have an increased risk of developing a worse symptomatology upon severe acute respiratory syndrome associated coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, often leading to hospitalization and intensive care. The consequences of this pandemic for oncology are really heavy, as the entire healthcare system got reorganized. Both oncologists and cancer patients are experiencing rescheduling of treatments and disruptions of appointments with a concurrent surge of fear and stress.
