ABSTRACT
We compared the therapeutic effects of concomitant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) using cisplatin to single radiotherapy (RT) in uterine cervical cancer. 34 cases of non-operable uterine cervical cancer were reviewed retrospectively from Mar, 1993 to May, 1996 in St. Mary' s Hospital. The patients were randomly selected to compare the effects of both methods. 22 patients were included in CRT group and 12 patients in RT group. The results were as follows 1. The decrease of tumor size was not significant (2.17 cm in CRT and 1.95 cm in RT) (p=0.61), but the number of responders of CRT group was larger than that of RT group significantly (p0.05) 3. The overall survival rate showed no difference between two groups (p>0.05). The disease-free survivals for 38 months were 17.02% in CRT and 11.36% in RT, but it was not significant (p>0.05). In conclusion, concomitant chemoradiotherapy showed better rate of response, but size of tumor decrease and tumor markers showed no difference. CRT might improve the overall survival and disease-free survival, although it was not significant in this study. The clinical significance of CRT remains to be determined in large randomized clinical trial.
