Clinical results after non-curative resection of highly advanced esophageal cancer are extremely poor. We administered concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CRT) as a multidisciplinary therapy in cases of highly advanced esophageal cancer for which non-curative resection is expected. The efficacy rate of the therapy was 59.4%, and the 3-year-survival rate 10.2%. A life-prolonging effect (the 3-year survival being 17.9%) was observed in the effective cases. Our future aim is to establish a safer, more reliable and cost-effective therapy by estimating the degree of efficacy before administration of CRT and then selecting cases suitable for CRT.
高度进展期食管癌非根治性切除术后的临床结果极差。对于预期无法进行根治性切除的高度进展期食管癌患者,我们采用同步放化疗(CRT)作为多学科治疗方法。该治疗方法的有效率为59.4%,3年生存率为10.2%。在有效病例中观察到了延长生命的效果(3年生存率为17.9%)。我们未来的目标是通过在进行CRT之前评估疗效程度,然后选择适合CRT的病例,建立一种更安全、更可靠且性价比更高的治疗方法。
