Patient-derived solitary fibrous tumour xenografts predict high sensitivity to doxorubicin/dacarbazine combination confirmed in the clinic and highli…

2017

Abstract Background Preclinical models that mimic pathological and molecular features of solitary fibrous tumour (SFT) represent an important tool to select effective regimes and novel compounds to be tested in the clinic. This study was aimed at developing two preclinical models of SFT, assessing their predictive value in the clinic and selecting potential novel effective treatments. Material and methods Two dedifferentiated-SFT (D-SFT) models obtained from patients' biopsies were grown in immunodeficient mice. The antitumour activity on these models of doxorubicin, dacarbazine (DTIC), ifosfamide (monotherapy or combination), trabectedin and eribulin was tested. Twelve SFT patients were tr…

Preclinical and clinical evidence of activity of pazopanib in solitary fibrous tumour

2014

Abstract Background To explore the activity of pazopanib in solitary fibrous tumour (SFT). Patients and methods In a preclinical study, we compared the activity of pazopanib, sorafenib, sunitinib, regorafenib, axitinib and bevacizumab in a dedifferentiated-SFT (DSFT) xenotransplanted into Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) mice. Antiangiogenics were administered at their reported optimal doses when mean tumour volume (TV) was 80 mm3. Drug activity was assessed as TV inhibition percentage (TVI%). From May 2012, six consecutive patients with advanced SFT received pazopanib, on a national name-based programme. In one case sunitinib was administered after pazopanib failure. Results In the …

Maggot therapy following orbital exenteration

2007

Orbital exenteration is a radical surgery reserved for the treatment of locally invasive or potentially life-threatening orbital tumours.1 Complications occur after 20–25% of exenterations and include tissue necrosis (6%) and infection (3–4%).2–4 In the present report, we describe the management of a post-exenteration orbital infection by the use of maggots. An 82-year-old multimorbid man presented with a fist-sized painless tumour of the left orbit (fig 1A). Computed tomography demonstrated an orbital mass clearly demarcated from the surrounding tissue (fig 1B). After biopsy, the neoplasm was classified as a borderline-malignant extrapleural solitary fibrous tumour. Therefore, a total orbi…

Transoral surgical approach to solitary fibrous tumors in buccal space with infratemporal tumor extension : a case report

2020

A solitary fibrous tumour (SFT) is a rare spindle-cell neoplasm of mesenchymal origin usually located in the pleura. It has been recently described as occurring in various head and neck sites, including the oral cavity. The purpose of this article is to report a case of SFT originating in the buccal space and extending into the infratemporal space treated by means of transoral approach surgery. A 25-year-old female patient reported to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Universitas Airlangga Hospital, chiefly complaining of a painless lump in the left cheek which had been present for nine months. The diagnosis was arrived at on the basis of a combination of clinical investigat…
