Core Tip |
Given the heterogeneity of the available reirradiation evidence, an international registry would provide a foundation on which to base consensus recommendations regarding many of the outstanding questions surrounding patient selection and treatment planning. Inter-centre collaboration will be required to build a critical mass of data sufficient for robust statistical analysis; however, in order to achieve this, global harmo-nization is needed. Standardized nomenclature would facilitate consistent coding of treated volumes, doses, toxicity rates, and quality of life outcomes. A registry would also assist in determining the feasibility of both phase Ⅱ prospective studies and meta-analysis of currently available data.
