Abstract:
PURPOSE:To investigate the efficacy and safety of combination chemotherapy with biweekly paclitaxel plus infusional 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin in the treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic gastric cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS:Chemonaive patients with histologically confirmed advanced or recurrent inoperable gastric cancer were enrolled in the present study. Treatment consisted of paclitaxel (75 mg/m(2)) and leucovorin (40 mg/m(2)) as a 2-h intravenous infusion, followed by 5-fluorouracil (2,400 mg/m(2)) as a 46-h continuous infusion. Cycles were repeated every 2 weeks. RESULTS:Thirty patients were enrolled in this study. There were 12 partial responses, giving an overall response rate of 40.0%. At a median follow-up of 10.6 months, the median time to progression and median overall survival were 3.9 and 8.8 months, respectively. The most common hematological toxicity was grade 1-2 anemia, which was seen in 83.3% of patients. No grade 4 leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, or anemia was noted. The most common non-hematological toxicity was anorexia, which was seen in 70% of patients, although grade 3 anorexia was noted in only 10% of cases. There was no severe treatment-related morbidity or death. CONCLUSION:Combination chemotherapy consisting of biweekly paclitaxel plus infusional 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin was effective and well tolerated in patients with advanced gastric cancers.
