Does gap-free intensity modulated chemoradiation therapy provide a greater clinical benefit than 3D conformal chemoradiation in patients with anal cancer?

TL;DR: This study suggests that further investigations concerning the use of IMRT to treat cancer of the anus are warranted, and a longer follow-up is essential to determine whether or not IMRT has an impact on late toxicity, local control and survival compared with conventional 3D-CRT.
Journal ArticleDOI
