Nondose-dense chemotherapy provides good outcomes with manageable toxicities in a multidisciplinary treatment approach, while reducing cumulative drug exposures in the developing world where dose-intense or dose-dense chemotherapy could potentially increase toxicity, and hence seems a feasible approach in resource-limited settings. Presence of any residual disease post definitive radiotherapy or delay in local control portends poor outcome.
