Nasopharyngeal carcinoma: Result of treatment with cis-diammine-dichloroplatinum II, 5 fluorouracil, and radiation therapy
Combined CT (CDDP + 5FU) and RT were given to 28 patients with NPC during July 1982-May 1985. Two, 1, 4, and 21 were in Stages I-IV (AJC), respectively. Side effects, mainly from RT, were clinically acceptable. One had transient cervical myelitis. Myelosuppression was mild and of short duration. Act...

Zusammenfassung: | Combined CT (CDDP + 5FU) and RT were given to 28 patients with NPC during July 1982-May 1985. Two, 1, 4, and 21 were in Stages I-IV (AJC), respectively. Side effects, mainly from RT, were clinically acceptable. One had transient cervical myelitis. Myelosuppression was mild and of short duration. Activity of CT was seen at both T, and N sites after the upfront CT. Compared to previous experience using RT alone, the result of this study suggested a positive role of CT in this disease. |
