Necessity of concurrent chemotherapy in N2‐3 nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy of ≥3 cycles followed by intensity‐modulated radiotherapy
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Cancer Medicine"
DOI: 10.1002/cam4.2179
Abstract: Concurrent chemotherapy (CCT) is used in locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) for improved local control, which could also be achieved by intensity‐modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). And for N2‐3 NPC, distant metastasis is the more important cause… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/cncr.30931
Abstract: The authors hypothesized that unilateral intensity‐modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) would decrease toxicity compared with bilateral IMRT for patients with lateralized palatine tonsillar cancer and a neck classification of N0 to N2b, with similar oncological outcomes. read more here.
