Core Tip |
Cancer patients at very high risk are difficult to treat with powerful preoperative chemotherapies, and extensive lymph node dissection might not always be an option. If radiation therapy is found to be safe and effective in these patients, it might increase the therapeutic options available for advanced gastric cancer. Preoperative intensity modulated radiation therapy together with a regimen of concomitant chemotherapy with tegafur/gimeracil/oteracil was delivered to five patients with clinical Stage III gastric cancer, bulky lymph node metastasis, and adjacent organ invasion. All patients subsequently underwent no residual tumor resection. Slightly reduced doses of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy might be useful and safe for patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. |
