Mature results of a pilot study of pelvic radiotherapy with concurrent continuous infusion intra-arterial 5-FU for stage IIIB-IVA squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix

Dosimetric study of volumetric arc modulation with RapidArc and intensity-modulated radiotherapy in patients with cervical cancer and comparison with 3-dimensional conformal technique for definitive radiotherapy in patients with cervical cancer

“…[18][19][20][21] Studies on chemoradiotherapy have also been conducted entirely with conformational techniques, mainly in 2D. 22 Although the study focused on a small number of patients, it allows expansion of the literature data on the subject, using objectives and validated criteria. It also provides data comparison between VMAT and IMRT.…”

Intra-Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy Using Cisplatin With Radiotherapy for Stage III Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Cervix

“…Thus, in Japan it is still uncertain whether CCRT can improve the survival rate in the present report. Table 6 shows treatment results of IAIC in other studies and from the present study (21,24,25,27,29,(31)(32)(33)(35)(36)(37). Intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy is considered useful for improvement of local control because it makes possible high concentrations of drug distribution for the local region and greater antitumor effects and fewer systemic adverse effects than with systemic chemotherapy in CCRT.…”
