Abstract:
:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of capecitabine and cisplatin in patients with recurrent gastric cancer after fluoropyrimidine-based adjuvant therapy. Patients with histologically confirmed and measurable advanced gastric cancer that had relapsed after fluoropyrimidine-based adjuvant chemotherapy received oral capecitabine (1250 mg m(-2) twice daily, days 1-14) and intravenous cisplatin (60 mg m(-2) over 1 h, day 1) every 3 weeks. In total, 32 patients were enrolled, of whom 30 were evaluable for efficacy and 32 for safety. A median of 5 cycles (range 1-10) was administered. One patient achieved a complete response and eight had partial responses, giving an overall response rate of 28% (95% CI, 13-44%). The median time to progression and median overall survival were 5.8 months (95% CI, 4.1-7.5 months) and 11.2 months (95% CI, 5.5-16.9 months), respectively. Grade 3 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia were observed in 38 and 6% of patients, respectively. Grade 2/3 nonhaematological toxicities included diarrhoea (19%), stomatitis (19%) and hand-foot syndrome (31%). No grade 4 toxicity, neutropenic fever or treatment-related deaths occurred. Capecitabine in combination with cisplatin was effective and well tolerated as first-line treatment in patients with recurrent gastric cancer after fluoropyrimidine-based adjuvant chemotherapy.
