Concomitant antineoplastic palliative chemotherapy in 77.1-81.8% of patients per arm, NI on percentage of patients receiving hormone therapy  +
Radiation type per group: - intervention: 129x external beam radiation, 39x brachytherapy, 21x both, 2x unknown or missing - placebo: 133x external beam radiation, 40x brachytherapy, 16x both, 3x unknown or missing  +
Curative surgery per arm for: 23 carcinomas of the rectosigmoid (enzyme arm: 9; placebo arm: 14) 17 endometrial carcinoma (enzyme arm: 8; placebo arm: 9) 14 uterine cervix cancer (enzyme arm: 11; placebo arm: 3), 1 carcinoma of the vulva (enzyme arm: 0; placebo arm: 1) 1 prostate cancer (enzyme arm: 0; placebo arm: 1)  +
''Intermittent pulse busulfan:'' "All patients received busulfan orally at a dose of 8 mg/mm³/day for 4 days every 4 weeks until a chronic stable phase was reached (total leukocyte count <50,000/mm³ but >6,000/mm³) at which time busulfan was discontinued. Busulfan was restarted only when the total leukocyte count exceeded 5O,OOO/mm³. Treatment was reinstated until the total leukocyte count was <50,000 but >6,000."  +
- Current chemotherapy: platinum-based treatment with cisplatin (up to six cycles) - Palliative radiation therapy permitted for irradiating small areas of painful metastases that could not be managed adequately using systemic or local analgesia - Patients were allowed to receive full supportive care therapies concomitantly, except for growth factors as a prophylactic measure, during the study  +
Radiotherapy: 70 Gy at 2 Gy per fraction in 35 daily treatments, 5 days a week for 7 weeks, chemotherapy: Cisplatin dosed at 100 mg/m² intravenously over 3h in 1000mL saline on days 1, 22, and 43 of radiotherapy  +
In: ≥2 cycles of cisplatin chemotherapy Chemoregime: 50-100 mg cisplatin +/- others  +
External radiotherapy was delivered with a 6- to 18-MV linear accelerator. Five fractions per week were planned. Treatment was given with a three- to four-field box technique. Radiotherapy was given as three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy. Computed tomography–based treatment planning was performed in all cases. The clinical target volume encompassed the primary tumor region and the pelvic regional lymph nodes. High-dose rate brachytherapy of the vagina was considered optional in accordance with German evidence-based guidelines. Brachytherapy was delivered by iridium 192 afterloading.  +
