Title: [Adjuvant chemotherapy in cancers of the stomach, pancreas and intestine]. Author: Martin F. Journal: Bull Cancer; 1984; 71(4):374-6. PubMed ID: 6498350. Abstract: Adjuvant chemotherapy after apparently complete resection of gastrointestinal cancer may be theoretically justified by the high rate of local and metastatic recurrences. However, the results of controlled trials are generally disappointing, even if some of them have recently suggested some hope, chiefly for adjuvant therapy in gastric cancer. Confirmation of these preliminary results is needed before considering adjuvant therapy as routine treatment in digestive tumors.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
