The value of serial carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in predicting response rate and survival of patients with gastrointestinal cancer treated with chemotherapy.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Patients aged >10 years with rhabdomyosarcoma have an inferior outcome compared with patients ages 1 to 9 years, which may be explained by toxicities (adverse events [AEs]) that result in chemotherapy dose reductions. METHODS:AEs observed during 1 of 3 randomized chemotherapy regimens (vincristine, dactinom...
