abstract: A Case of Advanced Gastric Cancer with Multiple Liver Metastases Successfully Treated with TS-1 and CDDP: Akihiro Tsukahara, Kazuhiro Kaneko and Syuji Tanaka (Dept. of Surgery, Niigata Prefectural Koide Hospital) Summary A 70-year-old advanced gastric cancer patient with liver and lymph node metastases was treated by chemotherapy with TS-1 and CDDP. One course consisted of administration of TS-1 100 mg/body for 21 days followed by 14 days rest and infusion of CDDP 80 mg/body on day 8. At the end of 2 courses, the primary tumor showed a hypertrophic wall, but a partial response of the liver metastases (reduction ratio was 78.3%) and a complete response of the LN metastasis were achieved. PR and CR were maintained after 4 courses. There were no remarkable side effects for 4 courses. This chemotherapy may have therapeutic efficacy in cases of advanced gastric cancer with liver and lymph node metastases.
