“…These time-scales, as well as other variables of long time survival such as overall survival and 2nd, 3rd, and 5th year survival rates (although not the primary end point of the present study, and for this reason is statistically underpowered), are comparable for our two treatment groups. These results are within the ranges reported by most studies evaluating combined modalities of treatment, including the EORTC study in patients with stage IIIA comparing surgery with radiotherapy after induction chemotherapy showing no difference between both radical modalities [31][32][33].…”

“…The US intergroup trial 0139 after induction with 45 Gy and concurrently given two cycles Cisplatin/Etoposide randomized to continuing radiotherapy to 61 Gy versus surgery; thereafter in both arms 2 further chemotherapy cycles have been given; with 23,6 : 22,2 months there was no significant difference in the median overall survival [11]. In the EORTC 08941 trial all patients received 3 cycles chemotherapy; hence only the patients with complete or partial response were randomized to radiotherapy with 60 Gy or to surgery with optional postoperative radiotherapy; with 16,4 : 16,0 months there was no difference in the median overall survival [12].…”

“…Kartais po chemoterapijos, atliktos prieð operacijà, bûtina pakartotinai iðtirti tarpuplauèio limfmazgiø bûklae, nes tai padëtø atrinkti ligonius, kuriuos galima gydyti operaciniu bûdu. Kai kurie tarptautiniai tyrimai -Inter grupës 0139 [13,14] ir EORTC 08941 [15,16] -parodë, kad ligoniams po indukcinës chemoterapijos pailgëjo ligos atsinaujinimo laikas, o tiems, kuriems sumaþëjo stadija, pailgëjo gyvenimo trukmë. Taip pat autoriai paþymëjo, kad po indukcinës chemoterapijos buvo maþiau vietiniø ligos recidyvø.…”
