Abstract:
:Several radiotherapeutic schedules compatible with continued structural-functional integrity of the gastrointestinal (GI) mucosa were compared utilizing the P815X2 murine mastocytoma grown as a solid subcutaneous tumour. Both the tumour and underlying normal tissues were irradiated during the treatments. The tumour exhibited a Do that increased from 210 rad to 397 rad as the tumour aged and in all instances demonstrated minimal shoulders in survival curves. In spite of a relative radioresistance of cells within the solid tumour, quite effective control of localized disease could be accomplished with radiotherapy schemes compatible with GI tolerance limits. Schedules evaluated utilizing this model included acute exposures to 1122 rad, daily exposure to 187 rad, 5 days/week exposures to 281 rad, twice weekly exposures (561 rad on Mondays and 374 rad on Thursdays) and a high dose, two fractions per day, schedule. Tumours were followed for changes in growth patterns during these schedules. Efficacy of tumour control was determined and schedules were compared on this basis. Aggressive radiotherapy approaching the tolerance limits of any of the fractionation schemes proved most effective.
