Abstract
INTRODUCTION: This study was to evaluate the surgical and survival effects of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by radical hysterectomy (RH) for cervical cancer with stages IB2 to IIB of FIGO 2009 staging. METHODS: From February 2, 2001 to November 11, 2015, 428 patients received NAC followed by RH in a tertiary hospital, in which all the major procedures were performed by one surgeon. Surgical and survival outcomes were evaluated between the NAC and primary RH groups. RESULTS: A total of 279 (65.2%) patients received NAC, and the overall clinical and complete pathological response rates were 65.9% and 10.8%, respectively. Compared with primary RH patients, NAC patients had more advanced stages, higher recurrence rate, longer median duration of RH, and more median estimated blood loss. After adjusted with baseline risk factors, no significant differences in progression-free or overall survival were observed between the NAC and primary RH groups. However, the responders to NAC had better survival outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: There were no surgical or survival benefits of NAC for patients with cervical cancer of stages IB2 to IIB except for the responders to NAC.
