pubmed:abstractText |
Most patients with esophageal carcinoma present with locally advanced disease and a poor prognosis. Surgery or radiation provides palliation for locally advanced esophageal carcinoma. The role of neoadjuvant therapy remains to be defined. We administered neoadjuvant chemotherapy consisting of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), leucovorin, interferon-alpha, and cisplatin to 11 patients with locally advanced disease.
