Survival over ten years after chemotherapy by paclitaxel and carboplatin, followed by a concomitant chemo-radiotherapy in nasopharyngeal undifferentiated carcinomas

  • 1. CHU de Constantine, Constantine (Algeria)

Description

Based on 28 patients suffering from a cavum carcinoma and having been treated by neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (with paclitaxel and carboplatin) followed by a concomitant chemo-radiotherapy and an adjuvant chemotherapy, the authors analyse the response over time and identify the main causes of death. They also conclude that randomized studies are necessary to better asses the treatment efficiency. Short communication
