Background: Abscopal effect (AE) describes the ability of radiotherapy (RT) to induce
immune-mediated responses in nonirradiated distant metastasis. Bone represents the third …

While the abscopal effect has been previously described, the phenomenon has been poorly
defined in the case of spinal metastases. This article is unique in that we present the first …

Background The abscopal effect is a rare phenomenon whereby local radiation induces a
proposed immune-mediated anti-tumor effect at distant sites. Given the growing use of …

The abscopal effect is defined as the clearance of distant tumors after applying localized
irradiation to a particular tumor site. It has been proposed that a mechanism for the abscopal …

Abscopal effect is defined as a phenomenon where radiation delivery at one site induces
shrinkage of disease at a distant site, outside the radiation field. Although it is an old concept …

The abscopal effect is mediated by a systemic anti-tumor immune response and reflects the
regression of non-irradiated metastatic lesions at a distance from the primary site of …

This review is devoted to a rare in clinical practice, but promising phenomenon of regression
distant non-irradiated metastases in combination therapy of cancer patients. RH Mole in …

The concept of utilizing localized radiation therapy to elicit out-of-target tumor responses—
the abscopal effect—was proposed over 50 years ago (1, 2). Over the past decades, the …

The abscopal effect is a rare phenomenon in radiation oncology where radiotherapy has a
therapeutic effect at a distance from the intended treatment field. This effect has resulted in …

Purpose The abscopal effect is defined when a form of local therapy causes tumor
regression of both the target lesion and any untreated tumors. Herein cases of the abscopal …
