Between 1986 and 1991, 35 patients with esophageal cancer (TNM stages II-IV) underwent transthoracic esophagectomy with lymph adenectomy and were subsequently treated with 5,000 cGy of radiation (days 1-40) and concurrently with two courses of chemotherapy (cisplatin, vindesine and pepleomycin, days 21-26 and 49-54). Results were compared with those of 26 historical control patients, treated with radiation since 1981. Tolerance in all patients was good. The survival rate at 5 years was significantly improved for the multimodality-treated patients (30.9 +/- 9.4%), as compared with findings in historical controls (5.1 +/- 4.8%). The concurrent chemoradiation therapy using these three drugs following extensive surgery is worthy of consideration for patients with a localized esophageal cancer.
1986年至1991年间,35例食管癌患者(TNM分期为II - IV期)接受了经胸食管切除术及淋巴结清扫术,随后接受了5000 cGy的放疗(第1 - 40天),并同时接受了两个疗程的化疗(顺铂、长春地辛和平阳霉素,第21 - 26天和第49 - 54天)。将结果与1981年以来接受放疗的26例历史对照患者的结果进行了比较。所有患者的耐受性良好。与历史对照患者(5.1±4.8%)相比,接受多模式治疗的患者5年生存率显著提高(30.9±9.4%)。对于局限性食管癌患者,广泛手术后使用这三种药物进行同步放化疗值得考虑。
