title: [Questionnaire survey of systemic chemotherapy in colorectal cancer].
abstract: The results of a questionnaire survey conducted by the Colorectal Surgical Club were analyzed to elucidate how clinical trials performed as well as points of concern in the treatment of colorectal cancer by colorectal specialists in Japan. Of the specialists, 92.2% responded that systemic chemotherapy was necessary for curA (Dukes C), in almost all cases administered postoperatively either orally or intravenously, and 96.6% said systemic chemotherapy was necessary for unresectable colorectal cancer, in almost all cases administered intravenously in combinations of anticancer drugs. The things considered most important for systemic chemotherapy were survival rate, effective rate, and safety, while the most for which most care was taken were patient consultations, periodical blood examination, and observance of drug application and dosage.
