Objectives: Locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) is one of the leading health problems of the developing countries. We present long-term outcomes of treatment with a concomitant chemobrachyradiotherapy followed by consolidation chemotherapy regimen.
Materials And Methods: We treated 118 patients with LACC (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stages IB2-IVA) with external radiotherapy (50 Gy in 25 fractions) and concomitant chemobrachyradiotherapy (low-dose rate).
Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of ifosfamide and cisplatin administered concomitantly with low-dose rate brachyradiotherapy followed by consolidation chemotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma (LASCC) or adeno/adenosquamous carcinoma of the uterine cervix.
Methods: Sixty-two patients with primary uterine cervical cancer were enrolled between August 1999 and November 2004. The patients had to have FIGO-stage IB2 bulky to IVA disease, biopsy-proven squamous cell or adeno/adenosquamous carcinoma of the uterine cervix.
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of ifosfamide and cisplatin administered concomitantly with low-dose-rate brachytherapy followed by consolidation chemotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced squamous cell cervical carcinoma (LASCC).
Methods And Materials: Forty-four patients with biopsy-proven LASCC were enrolled. FIGO Stages IB2 bulky to IVA were entered into this study.
