- Abstract
Background: In Japan, concurrent chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment for unresectable esophageal cancer. The optimal combination of chemotherapeutic agents and radiotherapy dose remains controversial. The present study consists of a phase II trial of a cisplatin (CDDP)/5-fluorouracil (5-FU) infusion with concurrent radiotherapy in patients with unresectable, advanced esophageal cancer.
