Because of promising radiobiological advantages allowing dose escalation and/or reduction of treatment time, hyperfractionated and accelerated-hyperfractionated radiotherapy (hf-rt, ahf-rt) were introduced as part of treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (gbm). In December 1988 we started a prospecti

The treatment of six patients with advanced-stage or high-risk rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is described. These patients were treated with a delayed-accelerated hyperfractionated radiation therapy (DAHFRT) regimen which delivers 5200 cGy over 20 treatment days. Acceptable early toxicity was noted when rad
## Background. A regimen of multi-drug chemotherapy alternating with split course hyperfractionated radiation therapy (HFRT) was adopted for the treatment of patients with rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS). The purpose of this treatment regimen was to allow for the timely delivery of radiation and chemothera
