title: [Two routes chemotherapy by CDDP and STS against liver tumor].
abstract: Nine (eight males, one female) patients with unresectable liver tumor (seven HCC and two metastasis) were treated by two-routes chemotherapy using cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (CDDP) and sodium thiosulfate (STS). In these patients, 50-100 mg/body of CDDP was administered through the proper hepatic artery or right hepatic artery by one shot infusion or the balloon-occluded arterial infusion (BOAI) at 10 mg/min, and during administration, intra-inferior vena cava injection of STS (4 g/body) was given. None of 9 patients suffered nausea and vomiting during the treatment, 3 of 9 patients suffered nausea and vomiting to a mild degree after the treatment, none of 9 patients showed significant side effects, such as bone marrow suppression and/or renal disfunction. In conclusion, this study demonstrated the protection effect of STS injected in inferior vena cava against the toxicity of CDDP were well indicated.
