Abstract

연구방법 : 근치적 목적의 동시항암방사선치료를 시행받은 비인강암 환자들을 대상으로하여 치료 효과와 독성에 대한 후향적 분석을 시행하였다. 환자 및 방법 : 1993년 8월부터 1999년 3월까지 원격전이가 없는 50명의 비인강암 환자들이 방사선 치료기간 중 주 1회의 시스플라틴 $20mg/m^2$을 투여받았고, 1999년 4월부터 2000년 4월까지 20명의 환자가 상기 용량의 시스플라틴에 더하여 경구용 UFT300mg을 추가적으로 투여받았다. 총 70명 환자들의 임상기록과 병리 기록지를 검토하였다. 결 과: 연령의 중앙값은 47세 (범위 $18{\sim}76$)였고, 남자와 여자가 각각 53명과 17명 이었으며, 병기 II, III, IVA, IVB가 각각 23명, 14명, 15명, 18명이었다. 치료에 대한 반응율은 92.8%(95% C.I. $42{\sim}143%$)였고(완전반응 57명, 부분반응 8명), 총 34개월의 추적 관찰 기간 동안에 완전반응을 보인 57명 중 21명에서 재발(국소재발 5, 원격전이 11, 복합전이 5)을 하였다. 3년 무진행 생존율은 51.5%였으며 5년 생존율은 60.3%였다. 경구용 UFT의 추가적 사용은 주 1회 시스플라틴 항암치료에 비하여 반응율과 생존율 및 독성에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않았다. 결 론: 주 1회 저용량 시스플라틴$\pm$경구용 UFT를 이용한 동시항암방사선요법은 비인강암 환자의 치료에 있어서 비교적 적은 독성으로 높은 반응율을 나타내었으나, 향후 재발율을 감소시키기 위한 연구가 지속되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.
