Randomized Study on Adjuvant Chemotherapy and Adjuvant Chemo-Immunotherapy in Colon Carcinoma Dukes C

A Prospectively Randomized Phase III Study on Adjuvant Chemotherapy and Adjuvant Chemo-Immunotherapy in Patients With Operated Colon Carcinoma Dukes C (Stage III; T1-4, N1-30, M0).

This clinical investigation examined the effectivity 5-fluorouracil, of adding levamisol or interferon to 5-fluorouracil, and of a 5-fluorouracil/levamisol/interferon triple combination, in terms of recurrence-free and overall survival in curatively operable colon carcinoma Stage III.
