Effect of Adjuvant Chemotherapy in Stage III Cervical Cancer Patients Treated With Concurrent Chemoradiation: A Multicenter Study

In this study, we analyzed the efficacy of AC after CCRT in stage III CC patients. Methods: We performed a multicenter, retrospective analysis of 139 FIGO stage III CC patients treated with CCRT of whom 45.3% received AC. Our goal was to determine the impact of AC on survival in these patients. Results: Five-year progression-free survival was 37.5% and 16% in patients receiving CCRT with and without AC, respectively (p=0.008). Median PFS was 30.9 months (CI 95 %14.8-46.9) and 16.6 months (CI 95% 9.3-23.9) in patients receiving CCRT with and without AC, respectively. Five-year overall survival was 78.2% and 28.4% in patients receiving CCRT with and without AC, respectively (p
