Epirubicin, cisplatin, and protracted venous infusion of 5-fluorouracil for esophagogastric adenocarcinoma: Response, toxicity, quality of life, and survival

Abstract

ECF is a highly active regimen with acceptable toxicity in patients with esophagogastric adenocarcinoma. In a proportion of patients with LAD, chemotherapy enabled potentially curative surgery to be performed. The results justify further investigation of this regimen in a neoadjuvant setting.
