A 68-year-old man was diagnosed with multiple lung metastases of HCC 7 mo after partial hepatectomy for HCC. Oral UFT-E was given daily and docetaxel and CDDP were given intra-arterially (administered just before the bronchial arteries) every 2 wk via a subcutaneous injection port. One month after starting chemotherapy, levels of tumor marker, protein induced by vitamin K absence(PIVKA--), decreased rapidly,and after a further month, chest X-ray and computed tomography revealed the complete disappearance of multiple liver metastases. Two years after the combined chemotherapy, HCC recurred in the liver and was treated but no pulmonary recurrence occurred. In the absence of a standardized highly effective therapy, this combined chemotherapy with docetaxel, CDDP and UFT-E may be an attractive option for multiple lung metastases of HCC.展开更多

Methods： Forty-five female patients received docetaxel 60 mg/m^2 on dl and cisplatin 30 mg/m^2 on d1-d3 of every 28 days. Every patient was treated with at least 2 cycles and a median of 3 cycles （2-6 cycles ）. Results： Five patients achieved complete response （11.1%） and 18 partial response （40.0%）, 10 stable disease （22.2%）. The overall response rate was 51.1%. The clinical disease control rate was 73.3%, median time to tumor progression （TTP） was 7.8 months （1.0-34.5 months）, median survival time was 17.6 months （range 1.9-48.0 months）, and one year survival rate was 65.2%. The main side effect was marrow suppression. The treatment was well tolerated with grades Ⅲ and Ⅳ leukopenia in nine （20%） and ten （22.2%） patients. Conclusion： Combinative chemotherapy of docetaxel and cisplatin has a good anti-tumor activity on refractory advanced breast cancer with manageable toxicity.展开更多

Methods: From May 2006 to July 2007, 27 R/MGC patients (18 were male and 9 were female) with a median age of 49 years (range19-66) were consecutively enrolled. The mDCF protocol included 50 mg/m2 docetaxel for 1 day and 25 mg/m2 cisplatin on d2-3, 200 mg/m2 CF on d2-3 and 2000 mg/m2 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) CIV (continous infusion) for 46 h on d2-3, repeated every 2 weeks. Results: Twenty-seven patients were evaluable for efficacy and toxicity. A median of 4.5 cycles was given. One complete and 12 partial responses were observed for an overall intent to treat response rate (RR) 48.1% [95% CI (confidence intervals): 32%-64%]. Median time-to-progression (TTP) was 6.2 months and overall survival (OS) was 11.8 months. Twenty-seven (100%) patients experienced bone marrow suppression, and of them 48.9% were Grade 3-4 (16.3% were Grade 4). Two patients (7.4%) ceased chemotherapy because of bone marrow suppression. WHO Grade 1-4 non-hematological toxicity, such as oral mucositis, nausea/emesia, peripheral neuropathy, liver dysfunction, diarrhea, nephrotoxicity and cardiotoxicity, occurred in 59.2%、51.9%, 48.1%, 44.4%, 25.9%, 18.5% and 11.1% patients, respectively, and most of them were Grade 1-2. No patient died due to chemotherapy toxicity. Conclusion: mDCF regimen is effective in treating R/MGC with a high RR and long TTP/OS in this trial. Despite its severe hematotoxicity, this regimen has some advantages such as no cross-resistance with paclitaxel (paclitaxel-resistant patients RR 2/6). These results suggested that the mDCF regimen worth further investigation in clinical study of R/MGC treatment.展开更多
