Randomized Controlled Trial Observational Study
Effects of javanica oil emulsion injection combined with radiotherapy versus radiotherapy alone on the efficacy and safety in patients with esophageal cancer: a pooled analysis of 1269 cases.
To assess the effectiveness and safety of javanica oil emulsion injection (JOEI) when combined with radiotherapy (RT) in patients with esophageal cancer. ⋯ JOEI in combination with RT could benefit esophageal cancer patients with improved rate of response and quality of life, prolonged survival, and reduced incidence of adverse events. However, these results should be viewed with caution due to the limited quality of the included studies.
