Abstract

TS-1/CPT-11 combination therapy was carried out in a case of advanced gastric cancer with liver and lymph node metastases and obstructive jaundice after percutaneous transhepatic cholangio drainage (PTCD). Regression of the primary carcinoma and reduction in size of metastases were observed. Grade 1 fatigue and grade 2 neutropenia were noted as adverse reactions to the treatment. TS-1/CPT-11 combination therapy was useful in this case of advanced gastric cancer with liver and lymph node metastases.
