Surgical Adjuvant Chemotherapy
Annual Review of Medicine, 1977The evidence that the principles of surgical adjuvant chemotherapy developed in experimental animal systems also apply to a variety of neoplastic diseases in man has been clearly demonstrated. Micrometastatic disease can be eradicated with effective chemotherapy in several diseases. Prolongation of disease-free interval, if not cure, is now possible in

Surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy
International Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2008It was clearly demonstrated that good local control by either radiotherapy or D2 surgery is essential to cure gastric cancer. D2 surgery can be carried out safely with a large volume of patients and can provide better survival than limited surgery. More extended surgery than D2 cannot provide better survival and causes greater morbidity; therefore, it ...

Adjuvant chemotherapy is not for everyone
Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 2010The history of breast cancer therapy is cyclical [1]. Each new treatment, whether surgery, hormone therapy, or chemotherapy is initially applied to all patients, but with time, usually 10–20 years, it becomes clear that the overall benefit is substantially smaller than first anticipated because only a portion of treated patients derive any benefit ...

International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 1978Furthermore, in premenopausal women under 45 years of age Meakin et al.” failed to observe a significant difference in terms of delay of recurrence and prolongation of survival between those who had radical mastectomy (RM) and RM plus ovarian irradiation (RT). Since histologically positive axillary lymph nodes were identified in 87% (RM) and in 98% (RT)

Adjuvant chemotherapy in pancreatic cancer
International journal of pancreatology, 1997There is increasing interest in the use of adjuvant treatment for pancreatic cancer since although postoperative mortality is much improved, median long-term survival is only on the order of 11-15 mo. Despite a proliferation of studies in advanced pancreatic cancer indicating a benefit for chemotherapy, there has only been one small randomized adjuvant
