Curative Chemoradiotherapy in Patients With Stage IVB Cervical Cancer Presenting With Paraortic and Left Supraclavicular Lymph Node Metastases

Abstract

Summary To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of concurrent chemoradiotherapy, the authors reviewed the clinical data of 25 patients with cervical cancer initially presenting with paraortic and left supraclavicular lymph node metastases. Acute grade 3-4 hematologic toxicity was observed in 16 women. Complete response was observed in 13 patients and 3-year overall survival rate was 49%. These findings indicate that concomitant chemoradiotherapy is feasible in patients with
