Efficacy of oral UFT plus leucovorin therapy for colon cancer with ovarian and multiple liver metastases: report of two cases.

Abstract:

:Case 1: a patient was diagnosed as having ascending colon cancer with right ovarian metastasis, and underwent palliative right hemicolectomy plus oophorectomy. The tumor was a well-differentiated adenocarcinoma with right ovarian metastasis, and the disease was classified as stage IV. Oral chemotherapy with UFT plus LV was performed for about 3 years, and the patient is still being followed up with no recurrence at 5 years postoperatively. Case 2: a patient was diagnosed as having incomplete large bowel obstruction caused by ascending colon cancer, and underwent curative right hemicolectomy. The tumor was a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma, and the disease was classified as stage II. Since multiple liver metastases developed at 3 months postoperatively, oral chemotherapy with UFT plus LV was started. Imaging studies showed the complete elimination of liver metastases after 2 months. Subsequently, liver metastasis recurred about 10 months later. The patient died of unrelated cerebral infarction at 2 years and 6 months postoperatively.

    abstract::Hypoxic tumor cells are known to be more resistant to conventional chemotherapy and radiation than normoxic cells.
