Among patients with anal SCC, is it reasonable to replace 5-FU with capecitabine when delivering definitive chemoradiotherapy with concurrent mitomycin C?
Answer from: Medical Oncologist at Academic Institution
Yes, capecitabine can be substituted for infusional 5-FU in this setting. The NCCN guidelines include the capecitabine/mitomycin + RT regimen.
