description Prospective randomized clinical trials have shown the effectiveness of combined adjuvant 5-fluorouracil-based chemotherapy and radiotherapy after surgical resection of rectal cancer. To assess toxicity of this therapy, prospective data were collected from 236 Asian rectal cancer patients treated with combined 5-fluorouracil-based chemotherapy and radiotherapy after surgery. Almost 82% of patients completed planned therapy. Grade 3 and 4 diarrhea, stomatitis, and granulocytopenia occurred in approximately 18-21% of patients. There were two treatment-related deaths from granulocytopenia and sepsis. With median follow-up of 3.5 years, median disease-free and overall survival was 75 and 88 months, respectively. In conclusion, combined adjuvant 5-fluorouracil-based chemotherapy and radiotherapy after surgical resection of rectal cancer is tolerable in Asian patients with moderate toxicity.
