Group A: weekly cycle cisplatin Group B: 3 week cycle cisplatin
Cigarette smokers Group A 25 (80%); Group B 18 (78%); Overall: 43 (78%)
Also, very low percentage had induction so another major variation at least in comparing my profile;
Neoadjuvant chemo Group A: 8 (25%); Group B: 5 (17%); Overall: 12 (22%)
Both figures show the weekly regime offers better outcomes: 1) Predicted Survival for Patients Treated with Weekly Cisplatin (group A) versus the Standard Regimen (group B) 2) Predicted Time to Local Relapse (TTloR) for Patients Treated with Weekly Cisplatin (group A) versus the Standard Regimen (group B)
I will try to find some trail results later today but so far the weekly regimen seems fine.
Thanks Don
