    29 patients with advanced inoperable squamous head and neck cancer treated with radiotherapy with or without simultaneous chemotherapy were evaluated for their plasma TGF-beta1 levels prior to the treatment, in the middle of the radiotherapy course and at the end of the treatment. Neither pre-treatment nor post-treatment plasma TGF-beta1 level has a predictive value to the treatment response. The post-treatment plasma TGF-beta 1 level can predict late morbidity grade >1 in advanced head and neck cancor treated with radio(chemo)therapy. This could make a basis for dose escalation in selected patients.

    Studována byla prediktivní schopnost plasmatické hladiny TGF-beta1 u pacientů s pokročilými inoperabilními nádory hlavy a krku během radioterapie s anebo bez chemoterapie. Hodnoty neměly prediktivní význam pro odpověď na léčbu, ale hodnota plasmatického TGF-beta 1 po léčbě může predikovat pozdní morbiditu.
