  Background: Aim was to evaluate the additional benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy in patients of early stage endometrial carcinoma (EC) with adverse features. Materials and methods: Between June 2006 and July 2011, 56 patients with EC after surgery were randomized to receive either adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) [35 patients] or adjuvant sequential chemotherapy and radiotherapy (CRT) [21 patients]. Median age was 57.6 years (40-80). Predominant stages were FIGO IB (44.6%) and IIA (26.7%). Mean body mass index was 35.9 kg/m2 (23-72). Results: Median follow-up was 55 months (6-60). The Kaplan-Meier estimates for loco regional control (LRC), distant metastasis control (DMC) and overall survival (OS) for RT and CRT arms were; 85.7% vs. 74.2% (p 0.04), 85.7% vs. 85.7% (p 0.9) and 82.8% vs. 81% (p 0.8) respectively. Patients in CRT arm had earlier and higher pelvic recurrences {ha.. Read More»
