Because there were a few different schedules used in UKCCCR Anal Cancer Trial Working Party 1996 and the update (Northover et al. 2010), there is some variability in potential schedules.

Chemotherapy

  • Fluorouracil (5-FU) 750 mg/m2/day IV continuous infusion over 120 hours, started on days 1 & 29 (total dose: 7500 mg/m2)

Radiotherapy

  • Concurrent radiation therapy 1.8 or 225 cGy fractions x 20 or 25 fractions (total dose: 4500 cGy), given over 4 to 5 weeks; see Northover et al. 2010 for details, including information about boost radiation therapy
