The therapeutic efficacy and adverse reactions were compared between 14 patients who received TJ therapy using paclitaxel (PTX) and carboplatin (CBDCA) and 39 who received CAP therapy using cyclophosphamide (CPA), doxorubicin (DXR) and cisplatin (CDDP) as postoperative chemotherapy for cancer of the uterine body. In TJ therapy, PTX (175 mg/m(2)) and CBDCA (AUC 5) were administered on Day 1 (every 3 weeks), while in CAP therapy, CPA (500 mg/m(2)), DXR (40 mg/m(2)) and CDDP (50 mg/m(2)) were administered on Day 1 (every 4 weeks). Grade 3 or more severe hematotoxicity included leukocytopenia (incidence in the TJ and CAP groups: 71.4% and 64.1%, respectively), neutropenia (100%, 87.1%), thrombocytopenia (0%, 12.8%), and anemia (0%, 20.5%). No significant differences were noted between the two groups. Grade 3 or severe non-hematologic toxicities included nausea (0%, 15.4%) and vomiting (0%, 12.8%) with significantly higher incidence in the CAP therapy group (p=0.0000736, p=0.000736), peripheral sensory disturbance (7.1%, 0%) and arthralgia (7.1%, 0%) with significantly higher incidence in the TJ therapy group (p=0.00129, p=0.00000538). The survival rate and disease-free survival rate showed no significant differences between the two groups. TJ therapy is thought to be as effective as CAP therapy, and can be safely conducted, although precautions are required regarding arthralgia and neuropathy.
