[Efficiency of the capecitabine in patients with breast cancer with liver metastasis].
The main purpose of the present research is to study the efficiency of capecitabine in treatment of patients with breast cancer with liver metastasis. The investigation was carried on 44 patients with breast cancer with liver metastasis. Patients were divided into 2 groups. The first group was composed of patients (n=21) cycles of chemotherapy ( DCapLv) was carried out. The second group (n=23) was composed of patients treated upon the schema of CapLv. Patients had their diagnosis morphologically verified Metastatic involvement of the liver was diagnosed on the base of data of MRI, CT and ultrasonographic research. The obtained results were compared with the results of treatment of patients (n=54), who received the "classical" schema of FAC treatment. The investigation proved high efficiency of chemotherapy treatment schema in patients with breast cancer with liver metastasis. Proposed schema of chemotherapy seems to have had few hepatotoxic effects.
