Backgrounds • Radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy has been used to increase local control in patients with advanced tumor. • A variety of anti-cancer agents have been used, the optimal drug combinations, doses, and schedules have not yet been established. • Concurrent chemoradiotherapy for breast cancer has been not popular.
Purpose We conducted phase I trial of concurrent chemoradiotherapy using Doxifluridine (5'-DFUR) and Paclitaxel (TAL) for advanced or recurrent breast cancer, which could admit the induction of d-ThdPase peculiarly only in the tumor for a radiation sensitizer.
Patients Eligibility • Histologically documented cancer of the breast. • Locally advanced inoperable breast tumor or a recurrent tumor requiring localized radiotherapy. • Bone marrow function tolerance: WBC >4000/µL and <10000/µL , Plt>100000,Hb>9.5g/dl • Expected prognosis:who will live more than 3 months. • No infections. • No severe respiratory complications. • Pretreatment staging:CT or MRI of head, neck,chest abdomen and bone scintigraphy.
Treatment Methods • Radiotherapy 60Gy/30f/6week • (4-MV photon beam) • 5’-DFUR 600mg/body five days/week • TAL 20-35mg/m2 twice/week • Adjuvant therapy • TAL 60mg/m2/week Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Radiation 5’-DFUR TAL

Treatment Responses Follow up period :10 to 53 months. (median 24) • Irradiated site CR 10 • PR 6 • OverallCR 6 • PR 9 • PD 1
Local Control Rate provability 61% 50% years
Overall Survival Rate provability 69% 60% years
Summary • Sixteen cases of inoperable advanced breast cancer had been treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy. • The treatment regimen consisting of TAL, 5’-DFUR and local radiotherapy. • The dose of TAL 35mg/m2 twice a week and 5'-DFUR of 600mg/body five times a week was tolerable. • The treatment response of irradiated site, CR and PR were 10 and 6 case, respectively. • Local control rates at 2 and 3 years after treatment were 61% and 50%, overall survival rates at 2 and 3 years after treatment were 69% and 60%, respectively. 14
Conclusions The regimen consisting of concurrent dose of 600 mg of 5'-DFUR and doses of 35mg/m2 twice a week of TAL was tolerable and effective in the local control of advanced or recurrent breast cancer.
