Abstract Colorectal cancer is a major public health concern in Japan. While early-stage colorectal adenocarcinoma treatment entails radical resection of the primary tumor, the importance of perioperative treatment is growing as physicians seek to further improve treatment outcomes. For anal squamous cell carcinoma, definitive chemoradiotherapy is superior to radical surgery in terms of improved patient quality of life. The Colorectal Cancer Study Group of the Japanese Clinical Oncology Group was established in 2001 and has worked to provide answers to common clinical questions and improve treatment outcomes for colorectal and anal cancers through 15 large-scale prospective clinical trials. Here, we discuss the current state of perioperative treatment for early-stage colon, rectal and anal cancers in Japan and approaches taken by the Colorectal Cancer Study Group/the Japanese Clinical Oncology Group to improve treatment outcomes for these cancers.

Abstract The Japan Clinical Oncology Group Lung Cancer Study Group has been carrying out clinical studies, exploring new strategies of treatment, supportive therapies (antiemetics, etc.), etc., for a variety of cancers, including not only small cell lung cancer and non-small cell lung cancer but also rare chest tumours (represented by thymoma) and cancer-associated conditions (cancerous pericarditis, cancerous pleuritis, etc.). In this review, an overview of all studies conducted from 1985 to 2019 is provided.
