Adjuvant Pelvic Radiation "Sandwiched" Between Paclitaxel/Carboplatin Chemotherapy in Women With Completely Resected Uterine Serous Carcinoma: Long-term Follow-up of a Prospective Phase 2 Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

We prospectively evaluated patients with completely resected uterine serous carcinoma (USC) treated with radiation "sandwiched" between carboplatin/paclitaxel (C/T). The primary objective was to determine the safety profile, and the secondary outcome was to evaluate progression-free and overall survival.

Methods

Surgically staged patients with completely resected USC were enrolled to receive 3 cycles of paclitaxel 175 mg/m and carboplatin (area under the curve, 6-7.5) every 21 days, followed by radiotherapy and an additional 3 cycles of T/C at area under the curve of 5-6 (6 cycles + radiotherapy). Toxicity was graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria, version 4.03. Kaplan-Meier and log-rank tests were used to compare survival probabili
