What is the role of radiation-chemotherapy in the radical non-surgical management of carcinoma of the oesophagus? Upper GI Cancer Working Party of the UK Medical Research Council.

P Price1, P J Hoskin, T Hutchinson, S Stenning.   

Abstract

The optimal radical non-surgical management of carcinoma of the oesophagus has yet to be determined. The combination of high-dose radiotherapy with chemotherapy is being explored, particularly in North America. The MRC Upper GI Working Party has debated the areas where there is scientific uncertainty and which clinical trials may be appropriate to undertake in the UK.
