Abstract
There is a statistically significant survival advantage for usual-risk patients with the use of ACP. Although there is a trend to improved survival in the high-risk groups, it does not reach statistical significance and long-term outcomes in these patients remains disappointing. We continue to use ACP and believe it contributes to an overall survival advantage in our institution.
