[Second-line chemotherapy with bi-weekly CPT-11 and cisplatin for recurrent colorectal cancer resistant to 5-FU based chemotherapy].
Second-line chemotherapy with bi-weekly CPT-11 and cisplatin (CDDP) was given to 19 patients with recurrent colorectal cancer resistant to 5-FU based chemotherapy. The 19 patients consisted of 18 men and 1 woman with a mean age of 61.3 years. Nine patients had liver metastasis, 4 had lung metastasis, 2 had local recurrence, 2 had both local recurrence and lung metastasis, respectively, 1 had local metastasis and lymph node metastasis, and 1 had bone metastasis. CPT-11 (80 mg/m2) and CDDP (30 mg/m2) were administered bi-weekly. The objective overall response rate was 15.8%. The time to progression was 146 days, and the median survival time was 477 days. Grade 3 leucopenia and nausea occurred in 1 patient (5.3%). CPT-11 and CDDP treatment should be considered as second-line chemotherapy for colorectal cancer resistant to 5-FU based chemotherapy.
