Abstract
Both docetaxel and paclitaxel are a class of microtubule-stabilizing anticancer agents. Partial cross-resistance between docetaxel and paclitaxel was indicated in breast and ovary cancers. In advanced gastric cancer, retrospective study showed comparable efficacy of subsequent weekly paclitaxel with or without prior docetaxel-based chemotherapy. Therefore, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of weekly paclitaxel in patients with advanced or recurrent esophageal cancer who had previously received docetaxel-containing chemotherapy.
