1.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 05/01/2023 - "In the event where the tumor is in operable concurrent chemoradiotherapy is regarded as the best treatment modality. " 10/01/2021 - "Background Treatment with definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is the best option for patients with locally advanced esophageal tumors considered unresectable or for patients without clinical conditions to undergo surgical treatment. " 09/15/2020 - "Therefore the question remains whether neoadjuvant chemotherapy or neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy is eliciting the best results in patients with GEJ cancer. " 01/01/2019 - "Chemoradiotherapy (CRT) remains one of the most common cancer treatment modalities, and recent data suggest that CRT is maximally effective when there is generation of an anti-tumoral immune response. " 01/01/2016 - "We aimed to evaluate the prognostic factors and efficacy of treatment modalities for patients with temporal bone cancer, and to determine if definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for advanced-stage disease can provide a substitute for highly invasive surgeries. "
2.	Rectal Neoplasms (Rectal Cancer) 09/01/2011 - "To date, no suitable prognostic markers could be used to identify rectal cancer patients who are most likely to experience a good outcome after preoperative chemoradiotherapy. " 04/01/2020 - "The aim of this study is to develop a nomogram for prediction of pathologic complete remission (pCR) after preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for rectal cancer. " 05/01/2021 - "Although preoperative chemoradiotherapy for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer using the S-1 + oxaliplatin + bevacizumab regimen did not achieve the expected pathological complete response rate, this regimen led to an improved clinical response rate." 05/01/2019 - "In the locally advanced stage, the prognosis of rectal cancer was improved by preoperative chemoradiotherapy and radical surgery including complete total mesorectal excision. " 03/01/2019 - "Treatment of rectal cancer has been vastly improved by advances in surgery and radiochemotherapy but remains an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. "
3.	Esophageal Neoplasms (Esophageal Cancer) 09/01/2020 - "Neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy (RCTH) is proven to be highly effective in the treatment of esophageal cancer (EC). " 01/01/2007 - "Recent advances in multimodality chemoradiotherapy and surgery has improved survival in patients with loco-regional disease, but most patients with advanced stage esophageal cancer have a poor prognosis. " 01/01/2021 - "This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of radical radiotherapy and assess prognostic factors in metachronous oligometastatic esophageal cancer (MOEC) patients after initial treatment with curative-intent surgery and/or chemoradiotherapy. " 08/01/2022 - "Concurrent single-agent S-1 chemoradiotherapy may induce complete remission of stage IIIB esophageal cancer and is a possible alternative for older patients or those with multiple comorbidities." 08/01/2022 - "Complete remission after concurrent single-agent S-1 chemoradiotherapy for stage IIIB esophageal cancer: an autopsy case report."
4.	Uterine Cervical Neoplasms (Cancer of the Cervix) 11/01/1999 - "However, this February NCI suggested concomitant chemoradiotherapy was effective for improving the survival rates of most cervical cancer patients. " 10/01/2023 - "This case shows that using checkpoint inhibitors with chemoradiotherapy can be a very effective treatment for cervical cancer that has spread to other parts of the body." 04/07/2022 - "Toxicity during chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in cervical cancer patients might limit the chances of receiving an optimal treatment and to be cured. " 10/01/2021 - "Surgery followed by concurrent radiochemotherapy was a feasible and effective treatment with acceptable complications for locally recurrent cervical cancer, which markedly improved the survival of pelvic sidewall recurrence." 04/01/2016 - "The advent of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) has markedly improved the outcome of radiotherapy (RT), and CCRT is now used as a standard method in many cases of advanced bulky cervical cancer. "
5.	Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma 05/01/2022 - "Volumetric modulated arctherapy technique with concurrent chemoradiotherapy is an effective treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma with excellent overall and locoregional control without severe toxicity. " 01/01/2021 - "Patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma have a high risk of disease relapse, despite a high proportion of patients attaining complete clinical remission after receiving standard-of-care treatment (ie, definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy with or without induction chemotherapy). " 07/26/2016 - "Significant benefits of adding neoadjuvant chemotherapy before concurrent chemoradiotherapy for locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials." 01/01/2022 - "Induction chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy (IC-CCRT) may be beneficial for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. " 01/01/2022 - "In conclusion, induction chemotherapy before concurrent chemoradiotherapy improved OS significantly in patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma, without increasing the risk of late toxicities.
