Grup d'Oncologia Radioteràpica

El nostre grup està integrat en el Departament d’Oncologia Radioteràpica de l’Hospital Universitari Vall d’Hebron (HUVH) i se centra en el tractament multidisciplinari de pacients amb tumors malignes. També participem com a investigadors principals o col·laboradors de recerca en una sèrie d’assaigs clínics pioners, projectes de recerca translacional i programes de desenvolupament tecnològic.

El 2020 vam renovar tres acceleradors lineals (LINACS) gràcies a una donació de la Fundació Amancio Ortega. Aquests aparells incorporen tota la tecnologia més avançada i l’aplicació d’aquestes tècniques altament complexes requereix coneixements addicionals per part del nostre servei, així com formació especialitzada quant a indicacions, procediments d’administració, mètodes de control de qualitat, a més de la incorporació d’eines i enfocaments innovadors per al mesurament de resultats. Això inclou:

  • Control de la respiració per al tractament de tumors situats a regions mòbils del cos, com els pulmons i el fetge. La teràpia se sincronitza amb el ritme respiratori. Aquesta tècnica està especialment indicada en la radioteràpia corporal estereotàctica (SBRT).
  • La retenció de la respiració per inspiració profunda (DIBH) és una tècnica de radioteràpia en què els pacients inspiren profundament durant el tractament. Es demana al pacient que inspiri profundament i aguanti la respiració mentre s’administra la radiació. La respiració profunda fa que el cor s’allunyi del pit i, per tant, rebi una dosi més baixa.
  • La radioteràpia de seguiment de tumors en temps real es fa servir en el tractament hipofraccionat del càncer de pròstata. Es col·loquen marcadors a la pròstata i durant la teràpia el sistema els reconeix. Si la pròstata es mou (en moure’s, per exemple, la bufeta o el recte), la tècnica pot detectar-ho i indica la correcció.
  • La radioteràpia adaptativa es fa servir per al tractament de tumors ginecològics i de bufeta, que es mouen i poden canviar de posició. Es capta una imatge tridimensional abans d’administrar la teràpia i s’indica quin punt de l’òrgan requereix teràpia, amb un pla de tractament que s’adapta millor a la posició de l’òrgan en aquell moment precís.
  • La radiocirurgia de lesions petites s’aplica per al tractament de petits tumors cerebrals o metàstasis i per a algunes afeccions no oncològiques, com ara la neuràlgia del trigemin que ja no respon a la teràpia estàndard, i a algunes afeccions de parkinsonisme. S’administra una dosi molt alta en un volum molt petit (5-10 mm de diàmetre), cosa que requereix tècniques extremadament precises.

  • Desenvolupament tecnològic: adquisició de nous equips per aplicar tècniques clíniques avantguardistes, com ara la radioteràpia rotacional (amb teràpia d’arc d’intensitat modulada, IMAT), la radioteràpia adaptativa, la radioteràpia de control respiratori (RT4D) i la radioteràpia guiada per imatge (IGRT).
  • Recerca translacional: aplicació dels coneixements sobre biologia del càncer i els teixits sans per personalitzar la teràpia en funció de les característiques i especificitats de cada pacient i cada tumor.
  • Qualitat: continuar obtenint la recertificació ISO 9001/2008 en l’àmbit de l’oncologia radioteràpica.
  • Recerca clínica: accelerar i fer avançar la recerca clínica sobre la teràpia de radioimmunoteràpia combinada.
