Thirty patients with a diagnosis of metastatic adenocarcinoma of the lung were entered on a trial to evaluate the antitumor efficacy of 5-fluorouracil 370 mg/m2 daily for 5 days every four weeks in combination with folinic acid 200 mg/m2, 60 min prior to 5FU. All patients had a good performance status, bidimensionally measurable disease, and weight loss less than or equal to 5% of preillness weight. Of the 29 evaluable patients, only two (7%) had partial responses (95% confidence limits 1-24%). Eleven (38%) had stable disease and 16 (55%) progressed. The two responding patients survived 12 and 60+ weeks. The median survival of all evaluable patients was 25 weeks (range 7-60+) and that of the stable patients was 26 weeks. The principal toxicities observed were diarrhea and stomatitis. Myelosuppression was rarely dose limiting. In contrast to the results of treatment with 5FU and folinic acid in metastatic colorectal cancer and breast cancer, the results of treatment with this combination of agents have been much less encouraging in adenocarcinoma of the lung. 相似文献

In a multicenter phase II study, 30 patients with unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic squamous cell or adenocarcinoma of the esophagus were treated with folinic acid 200 mg/m2/d, 5-FU 300 mg/m2/d, and cisplatin 20 mg/m2/d intravenously for 5 days every 4 weeks. Two of 13 patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) had a complete response (CR), but one died of pneumonia after 9 months while still in CR, and the other still in CR after more than 5 years. Six other patients (3 SCC, 2 of 16 with adenocarcinoma, 1 mixed histology) had a partial response with a median duration of 9 months (range 5 to 57+months) for an overall response rate of 27%. A further 6 patients (20%) had stable disease. Grade 4 neutropenia occurred in 6 patients (20%), with 5 requiring antibiotics for associated fever. Other grade 4 toxicities were nausea and vomiting (1), anemia (1), and thrombocytopenia (1); there were three early deaths (emphysema, cardiac arrest, pulmonary embolism). This combination appears to be an active, convenient regimen for advanced esophageal cancer, resulting in prolonged remission and survival in some patients. 相似文献

Treatment of gastric cancer still presents a challenge in cancer chemotherapy. In our Institute, from January 1981 to November 1984, 45 patients were given 5-fluorouracil (5FU) 600 mg/m2 Days 1, 8, 29, and 36; doxorubicin (A) 30 mg/m2 Days 1 and 29; mitomycin-C 10 mg/m2 Day 1 (FAM regimen) every 8 weeks. From December 1984 to October 1986, 26 patients were treated with 5FU 300 mg/m2 on Days 1-5, A 40 mg/m2 on Day 1, cisplatin (P) 100 mg/m2 on Day 1 (FAP regimen) every 3 weeks. In the FAM group, 42 patients are evaluable for response; 5 (12%) partial remission (PR), 9 stable disease (SD), and 28 progressions (PRO) were observed. Median duration of response (MDR) was 21 weeks (range 13-45) and the median survival (MS) in the whole group was 27 weeks. In the FAP group, 23 patients are evaluable: 2 CR (9%), 11 PR (47%), 2 SD (9%), and 8 PRO (34%) were observed; CR duration was 24 and 107+ weeks, respectively, MDR of PR was 22 weeks (5-35). The MS of all patients was 16 weeks. Toxicity (WHO criteria) was mild in the FAM group and severe in the FAP group. In spite of a higher objective response rate, the short MS and the severe toxicity observed in the FAP group do not merit recommendation of this regimen in patients with gastric cancer; therefore neither FAM nor FAP appear to be an ideal standard therapy. 相似文献

Purpose. 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) and Vinorelbine (Vin) are active in the second line therapy of metastatic breast cancer (MBC). We conducted a multi-institutional phase II study to assess the activity of the combination of 5-FU and Vin in anthracycline and taxane pretreated patients with MBC. Patients and Methods. Patients with MBC previously treated with anthracyclines and taxanes, who had measurable or evaluable disease, were treated with folinic acid 200 mg/m2 IV, 5-FU 400 mg/m2 IV bolus, and 5-FU 600 mg/m2 continuous infusion over 24 hours on days 1, 2, 15, and 16 and Vin 25 mg/m2 on days 1 and 15 of a 28-day cycle, for six cycles. Response rate, time to disease progression, overall survival, and toxicity were evaluated. Results. Thirty-eight patients were enrolled and 35 were evaluable for response. Grade III and IV neutropenia was seen in four and three patients, respectively. At a median follow-up of 19.5 months, 33 patients have progressed, 14 during treatment and 19 during the follow-up period, and 23 have died for an overall survival of 12.3 months. The time to progression was six months. Eight patients had a partial response and 14 had stable disease for a clinical benefit rate of 63%. Conclusion. The combination of 5-FU and Vin is well tolerated and is a good option for the palliative care of patients with MBC. 相似文献

Topotecan is a topoisomerase-I inhibitor, a drug that stabilizes a covalent complex of enzymes and causes strand cleavage of DNA. 5-Fluorouracil (5FU) is an antimetabolite that interferes with DNA synthesis. Preclinical studies using human cancer cell line models have shown potential therapeutic synergy between these two drugs by showing the maximum cytolytic effect using sequential 5FU followed by topotecan. In the current study, 5FU was used at a fixed dose of 375 mg/m2 given intravenously for five consecutive days on a 28 day cycle. Topotecan was dose-escalated in cohorts of patients from 0.5 to 1.0 mg/m2 given intravenously for 5 days after the 5FU dose. Eleven patients were entered at different dose levels. Both hematological and gastrointestinal toxicity were dose limiting. Diarrhea was the dose-limiting toxicity at the dose of 0.75 mg/m2 of topotecan. Two cases of grade 4 neutropenia were also observed at this dose level. One patient with small cell lung cancer had a complete response, while one patient with metastatic colorectal cancer had a partial remission. Three other patients had stable disease, lasting between 6 and 8 months. Overall, the regimen was well tolerated. A phase II study using a dose of 5FU at 375 mg/m2 followed by topotecan at 0.75 mg/m2 intravenously over 5 days every 28 days is recommended. 相似文献

The efficacy and toxicity of a combination of etoposide 100 mg/m2/day iv on day 2-4, leucovorin 300 mg/m2/day iv, and 5-FU 500 mg/m2 day iv on day 1-5 every 4 weeks were assessed in 21 patients with advanced gastric cancer with measurable or evaluable diseases. Eight patients had an objective response, including 3 in CR. The overall response rate was 38.1% (95% CI 33.4-42.8%). Five of 8 patients who exhibited locally advanced and unresectable diseases had an objective response (2 CR, 3 PR). The response rate in patients with metastatic disease was 23.0% (95% CI 14.4-31.6%). The median progression-free interval and overall survival time were 7 and 10 months, respectively. The most frequent side effect was alopecia (Gr I/II 71.4%). No treatment-related death occurred. Modified ELF is a relatively effective and tolerable combination regimen for advanced gastric cancer and can be safely administered to elderly patients and patients with systemic diseases. 相似文献

Summary Standard combination chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer produces response rates between 30–60% with limited impact on survival. We undertook a phase II trial to determine the activity of 5 fluorouracil (5FU) and folinic acid (FA) in patients with measurable metastatic or recurrent breast cancer who had received no prior chemotherapy. Patients meeting the eligibility criteria received 5FU 370 mg/m2/day and FA 200 mg/m2/day for 5 days repeated every 28 days, toxicity allowing. Response defined by standard criteria was assessed every 8 weeks and toxicity according to WHO criteria was determined on every course. Thirty-three patients were entered on trial. Thirty-two patients were evaluable for response and 33 for toxicity. The dose limiting toxicity was stomatitis with 7/32, 19/32, and 5/32 patients experiencing grade 1, 2, and 3 toxicity. Grades 1 and 2 diarrhea occurred in 17/32 and 11/32 patients respectively. Myelosuppression was not significant. Two complete and 11 partial responses were observed. The overall response rate was 41% (95% CI, 24–58%). Responses were seen in soft tissue and visceral sites. Patients who had received adjuvant chemotherapy more than 6 months prior to receiving 5FU and FA responded also. Six of 29 patients receiving standard combination chemotherapy as second line treatment responded subsequently. We concluded: 1) 5FU and FA is an active combination in the treatment of breast cancer warranting further evaluation in combination with other drugs; 2) the dose-limiting toxicity of stomatitis is tolerable; 3) patients receiving 5FU and FA as first line therapy can respond to conventional combination chemotherapy as second line treatment. 相似文献

Phase II studies have suggested an improved response rate and acceptable toxicity profile associated with gemcitabine combinations compared to gemcitabine alone for treatment of metastatic adenocarcinoma of the pancreas. The GFP regimen (gemcitabine, 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, and cisplatin) is based on laboratory evidence of disease-specific chemotherapy interaction.[8] This retrospective analysis examined the outcome of 49 consecutive patients with histologically confirmed metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma treated between July 1998 and September 2000. Day 1 treatment consisted of gemcitabine 500 mg/m2 over 30 minutes and then leucovorin 300 mg bolus, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) 400 mg/m2 bolus, followed by infusional 5-FU 600 mg/m2 over 8 hours. Day 2 consisted of leucovorin 300 mg bolus, 5-FU 400 mg/m2 bolus, followed by cisplatin 50-75 mg/m2 over 30 minutes and then infusional 5-FU 600 mg/m2 over 8 hours. Treatment was administered every 2 weeks. Median patient age was 61.5 years, 74% were men, and 20 patients had refractory disease (11 patients had disease progression upon gemcitabine-based therapy). Grade 3-4 toxic effects (% patients) consisted of neutropenia (30%), thrombocytopenia (14%), anemia (8%), and neutropenic fever (2%). Grade 3-4 nonhematological toxicities (% patients) consisted of neuropathy (14%), ototoxicity (8%), nephrotoxicity (6%), nausea/vomiting (14%), and mucositis (10%). The majority of dose reductions were made for neuropathy or cytopenias. Filgrastim and erythropoietin were given as needed to promote dose intensity. Eight patients attained a partial response (PR) by RECIST criteria. Fourteen had stable disease (SD). Two patients attaining PR and two attaining SD had progressive disease with prior gemcitabine-based therapy. The median time to disease progression (TTP) from GFP start was 9 weeks. For all 49 patients, the median overall survival (OS) from GFP start was 10.6 months, 12-month survival was 46%, and 24-month survival was 30%. Notably, upon disease progression, 31 patients continued to receive the GFP regimen with irinotecan 80 mg/m2 inserted on day 1 following gemcitabine, the G-FLIP regimen (gemcitabine, 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, irinotecan, and cisplatin). Measured from G-FLIP initiation, the TTP for the 31 patients treated sequentially was 10 weeks, and for the 14 patients attaining SD or PR the TTP was 25 weeks. The median overall survival measured from GFP initiation was 11.8 months. The response rate, non-cross resistance, TTP, OS, and tolerability warrant prospective development of this novel combination. This experience also demonstrates that adding a single new drug such as irinotecan to the same first-line chemotherapy combination upon disease progression may be an important alternative for the treatment of relapsed/resistant cancer. 相似文献

The main objectives of this phase II study were to determine efficacy and safety of the combination of UFT with Leucovorin and mitomycin C in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Ninety-seven patients were treated with UFT (91 patients 300 mg/m2, 6 patients 250 mg/m2)+Leucovorin 90 mg days 1-28 q 5 weeks. During the first 4 cycles the patients also received mitomycin C 7 mg/m2 on day 1. At the end of 4 courses patients with benefit from the treatment could receive further courses of UFT and Leucovorin alone. Two patients had a complete response (2%), 20 (21%) had a partial response, 40 (41%) had no change, 19 (20%) had progression, and 16 (17%) were not evaluable for response. The overall response rate by intention to treat was 22/97 (23%). Median time to progression was 5 months and median survival 13 months. Severe (grade 3-4) toxicities included: anorexia 3%, nausea 6%, vomiting 7%, diarrhoea 7%, and fatigue 9%. Febrile neutropenia, renal failure, and thrombocytopenia were seen in 1% of the patients, respectively. The combination of UFT with Leucovorin and mitomycin C shows similar clinical activity with regard to overall response rate (23%) and survival (13 months) to other frontline 5-fluorouracil-based therapies in metastatic colorectal cancer patients. The results indicate that mitomycin C did not increase either efficacy or toxicity. Therefore, phase III trials with this regimen cannot be recommended. 相似文献

This study combined oxaliplatin with the Nordic bolus schedule of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and folinic acid (FA) as first-line treatment in metastatic colorectal cancer. Twenty-seven patients were treated every second week with oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 as a 2-h infusion on day 1, followed by a 3-min bolus injection with 5-FU 500 mg/m2 and 30 min later a bolus injection with FA 60 mg/m2 given on days 1 and 2. Seventeen patients achieved a complete (n=2) or partial (n=15) response, leading to a confirmed response rate of 63% (95% CI 45-81%). The estimated median times to progression and survival were 8.9 and 18.7 months, respectively. Neutropenia grade 3-4 toxicity was seen in 63% of patients, neuropathy grade 3 in one patient and grade 2 in 12 patients. Oxaliplatin combined with the bolus Nordic schedule of 5-FU/FA (Nordic FLOX) appears to be well tolerated, effective and feasible as first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer yielding results comparable with those obtained by more complex schedules. 相似文献

One hundred eighty-one patients with measurable recurrent or metastatic colorectal cancer, who had not received prior chemotherapy, were randomized in a prospective controlled trial to receive 5-fluorouracil (5FU), 13.5 mg/kg, for five days (arm A) or high-dose folinic acid [Cyanamid-Lederle, Italy] (FA), 200 mg/m2, for five days and 5FU, 400 mg/m2 for five days (arm B). The treatments were repeated every four weeks. One hundred fifty-five patients were evaluable for response. The two arms were balanced for all potential prognostic factors studied. The response rate (CR+PR) was 18% in the 5FU arm and 16% in the 5FU plus FA arm. Median duration of response was 56 weeks for 5FU alone and 42 weeks for the combination (p = 0.48). Median time to failure (TTF) was 20 weeks for arm A and 21 for arm B (p = 0.62). Median survival was 62 weeks on the 5FU arm and 53 weeks on the FA plus 5FU arm (p = 0.14). Dose intensity (DI) delivered was the same in both arms. Diarrhea and mucositis were the most frequent adverse reactions in arm B; 20% of the patients in arm A and 38% of those in arm B experienced diarrhea (p = 0.008). Mucositis occurred in 34% of patients in arm A and 42% in arm B (p = 0.04). In general nausea and vomiting were moderate. Hematological toxicity was more severe in patients treated with 5FU alone: 31% in arm A and 14% in arm B developed leukopenia (p = 0.015). In the combination arm one patient died due to gastrointestinal and hematological toxicity after the seventh cycle. This study indicates that, in advanced colorectal cancer, the combination of high-dose FA and 5FU is not superior to 5FU alone when utilized at standard high-dose intensity. 相似文献

In a phase II trial, 36 patients with advanced gastrointestinal cancer were treated with: folinic acid (FA) 500 mg/m2 in a 2-hr intravenous (IV) infusion, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) 600 mg/m2 as an IV push injection 1 hr after FA, and hydroxyurea (HU) 35 mg/kg/day given p.o. in three administrations (every 8 hr) 6 hr after 5-FU. Cycles consisted of six weekly treatments for 6 weeks, followed by a 2-week rest period. Thirty-three patients were evaluable for response and 36 for toxicity; 73% had previous chemotherapy. The response rate was 30% (CR + PR), the median duration of response was 21 weeks (range 5-36), and time to failure was 17 weeks (range 3-51). The response in patients previously exposed to chemotherapy was 29% and 44% in chemotherapy-naive patients. The median survival for all entered patients was 28 weeks (range 6-54). The most common toxicity was gastrointestinal: diarrhea 22/36 (61%), mucositis 15/36(42%), and nausea and vomiting 15/36(42%); hematological toxicity was mild. We conclude that HU can potentiate the activity of 5-FU plus FA in advanced gastrointestinal cancer; in particular, HU can restore the activity of 5-FU in patients previously exposed to chemotherapy. 相似文献

Purpose: A phase I study was conducted to determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) and the dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of a CPT-11 plus cisplatin combination as salvage treatment in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients and methods: Twenty-two patients with histologically confirmed NSCLC, who had failed taxotere-based front-line chemotherapy, were enrolled. The patients’ median age was 61 years, 19 (86%) were male, and 17 (77%) had a performance status (World Health Organization (WHO)) 0–1. CPT-11 was administered as a 60-min i.v. infusion at a fixed dose of 100 mg/m2 on day 1 and at escalating doses on day 8, starting from 100 mg/m2 with increments of 10 mg/m2 ; cisplatin was administered at a fixed dose of 80 mg/m2 on day 8, 2 h after CPT-11 administration. Treatment was repeated every 3 weeks. Results: At the dose of CPT-11 120 mg/m2 , three out of four enrolled patients presented DLTs (grade 4 neutropenia, febrile neutropenia and delayed diarrhea); the addition of G-CSF at this level did not permit further dose-escalation. Grade 3/4 neutropenia was observed in 12 (18%) cycles, febrile neutropenia in four (6%), and grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia in four (6%). Grade 3/4 diarrhea was seen in six (29%) patients, and grade 2/3 nausea and vomiting in 12 (57%). Neurotoxicity grade 2 was observed in six (29%) patients and grade 3 in one (5%). Other toxicities were mild. The MTD was CPT-11 100 mg/m2 on day 1 and 110 mg/m2 on day 8 in combination with CDDP 80 mg/m2 on day 8. Among 12 patients evaluable for response, partial response was achieved in two (16.7%) patients and stable disease in five (41.7%). Conclusion: The combination of CPT-11 and cisplatin has substantial but manageable toxicity and marginal activity as salvage treatment of patients with NSCLC who have failed taxotere-based front-line chemotherapy; further investigation is warranted to define its precise role in the second-line setting. 相似文献

Background. A 96-hour infusion schedule of paclitaxel demonstrates tolerability and antitumor activity in lung cancer and breast cancer refractory to short-duration infusion paclitaxel. Given the activity of paclitaxel in esophageal cancer, a phase II trial of 96-hour infusion paclitaxel in esophageal cancer was undertaken. Methods. Both adenocarcinoma and squamous cell histology were included. Paclitaxel was administered at 140 mg/m2 over 96 hours every 21 days. Patients who had metastatic disease to the liver and transaminases greater than two times normal value received 120 mg/m2. Response to treatment was evaluated after the first two cycles and subsequently every third cycle. Results. Ten men and four women were entered. All were eligible for response and had stage IV disease. Thirteen patients were previously treated. All 13 received prior short-duration paclitaxel-containing chemotherapy regimens. Eleven patients had adenocarcinoma and three squamous cell cancer. Patients completed a mean of two cycles (range one to eight) prior to disease progression. No major responses were observed. Toxicity was minimal and included grade 3/4 neutropenia in 14% of patients. One patient with adenocarcinoma demonstrated stable disease for 28 weeks. Conclusion. No major activity was observed in a population of previously treated patients. Ninety-six-hour paclitaxel in metastatic esophageal cancer is generally well tolerated with minimal toxicity; however, it is ineffective in previously treated patients. Further evaluation of this schedule of paclitaxel in combination with concurrent radiotherapy, where its radiosensitizing potential may be useful, is ongoing in locally advanced esophageal cancer. 相似文献

Edrecolomab (Panorex®) is a monoclonal antibody directed against the 17-1A antigen located on the cell surfaces of carcinomas. Clinical activity has been seen in colon and breast cancer. This trial investigated the feasibility of combining edrecolomab with the oral fluoropyrimidine capecitabine (Xeloda®).
Patients received a loading dose of edrecolomab 500 mg intravenously (IV) on day-14, followed 2 weeks later by 100 mg IV every 28 days (day 1). Capecitabine was administered to single-patient cohorts at escalating doses of 1500, 2000, and 2500 mg/m2/day in two equally divided doses for 14 of 21 days, beginning on day 1. Additional patients were enrolled at the 2500 mg/m2/day dose level to better define the toxicities of combination therapy. Toxicity assessment was the primary endpoint.
Twenty seven patients with advanced or metastatic adenocarcinoma were enrolled on this study: 20 were evaluable for toxicity and 18 for response. The most common toxicities were elevated liver enzymes, diarrhea, and hand-foot syndrome. In cycle 1, grade 3 hand-foot syndrome was seen in two patients, and grade 3 diarrhea in one patient. Grade 2 toxicities included diarrhea, hand-foot syndrome, anemia, leukopenia, and transaminitis. Cumulative hand-foot syndrome was observed in four patients treated beyond two cycles. Three patients had edrecolomab infusion reactions during the course of treatment. One complete response and two partial responses were seen. Nine patients had disease stabilization lasting a median of 17.5 weeks (range 14.5-28+).
Edrecolomab and capecitabine may be safely given in combination to patients with advanced or metastatic adenocarcinoma. Clinical activity is seen in this heavily pretreated patient population. 相似文献

More than two-thirds of patients with gastric cancer present with metastatic disease and their curative options are limited. This phase II study assessed the efficacy and tolerability of cisplatin, epirubicin, tegafur-uracil (UFT) and leucovorin in patients with metastatic gastric cancer (MGC). Thirty-nine patients with previously untreated metastatic or unresectable gastric cancer received intravenous cisplatin 60 mg/m2 and epirubicin 50 mg/m2 on day 1 of a 28-day cycle; UFT 300 mg/m2 was administered with oral leucovorin 30 mg/day in divided doses on days 1-22, followed by a 7-day rest. Two patients achieved a complete response, 13 had a partial response (overall response rate 38%; 95% confidence interval [CI] 24-52%) and 16 patients (41%) had stable disease. Median time to progression was 6.5 months (95% CI 5.5-7.5 months); overall survival was 9.5 months (95% CI 8.5-13.5 months). Grade 3/4 neutropenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia occurred in 20%, 8%, and 3% of patients, respectively; two patients experienced febrile neutropenia. Grade 3 diarrhea occurred in three patients. The combination of cisplatin, epirubicin, UFT, and leucovorin has significant activity and tolerable toxicities in patients with MGC and represents a convenient treatment option for these patients. 相似文献

Thirty patients with previously untreated and measurable or evaluable advanced sofr tissue sarcoma entered this phase II study. Median age was 53 years (range: 24-71 years). Starting dose of Epirubicin was 100 mg/m2 IV bolus on day I combined with Ifosfamide, 2.5 g/m2, as a 6-hr IV infusion on day I and day 2 with uroprotection with Uromitexan, 1.6 g/m2, on day 1 and day 2. This schedule was repeated every 3 weeks. In case of minimal myelosuppression, the dose of Epirubicin was increased by 10 mg/m2 up to 130 mg/m2. Ifosfamide dosage was not increased. Mean cumulative dose of Epirubicin received was 477 ± 272 mg/m2 (range: 200-1200 mg/m2). Of 27 evaluable patients (WHO criteria), 13 had a partial response (48%), 4 showed no change (15%), and 10 had progressive disease (37%). Median time to progression was 27 weeks. Of 27 patients evaluable for toxicity. hemato-logical toxicity at day 21 was mild. Nonhematological toxicities consisted of nausea and vomiting in 82% of patients (WHO grade 3-4 = 19%). stomatitis in 44.5% (WHO grade 3 = 7.5%), and alopecia in 96% (WHO grade 2-3 = 89%). Appearance of cardiac dysfunction without heart failure during the treatment led to discontinuation of this chemotherapy in 3 patients. The results of this study show that the combination of Epirubicin and Ifosfamide is effective in advanced soft tissue sarcoma with an acceptable toxicity. However, we cannot conclude from this trial whether combination Epirubicin and Ifosfamide is superior to Epirubicin alone. 相似文献

Thirty evaluable patients were treated with methotrexate (MTX) 200 mg/m2, i.v. infusion over 60 minutes, 24 hours prior to the administration of 5-fluorouracil 600 mg/m2, and folinic acid 200 mg/m2, i.v. infusion over 60 minutes, every 2 weeks. A partial or complete response was achieved in 12 patients (40%), and disease stable in 10 patients (33%). Median actuarial survival was 18 months. Side effects, which were within acceptable limits, included 11 cases of stomatitis (5 Grade 3), 3 cases of leukopenia (Grade 2) and 12 cases of mild nausea and vomiting. We conclude that the present combination is active in metastatic colorectal cancer with mild toxicity. These results are being confirmed and a randomized trial is being carried out to prove that this combination holds therapeutic advantage. 相似文献

Twenty-five patients with advanced measurable gastric cancer were treated with high-dose folinic acid (200 mg/m2), 5-fluorouracil bolus (400 mg/m2) and continuous infusion (600 mg/m2) for two consecutive days every two weeks. Fourteen patients over 65 yr old and/or with a poor general status received first-line treatment, and eleven younger patients second-line. The response rate was 43.5% in 23 evaluable patients. There were 2 complete responses (8.7%) and 8 partial responses (34.8%). Median survival was 6 months in first-line and 8 months, calculated from start of folinic acid-5FU, in second-line. Toxicity was mild without WHO Grade greater than 2 events. This combination is effective for advanced gastric cancer in poor-prognosis patients and requires further studies. 相似文献

This dose escalation study was designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended doses (RDs) of 5-fluorouracil (5FU), folinic acid and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX) with concomitant radiotherapy in inoperable/metastatic oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma or adenocarcinoma. Patients received three courses of LV5FU2 regimen (folinic acid 200 mg m(-2), bolus 5FU 300-400 mg/m(2), continuous infusion 5FU 400-600 mg m(-2) on days 1 and 2) and escalating doses of oxaliplatin 50 to 100 mg m(-2) on day 1 (FOLFOX). This regimen was repeated every 2 weeks, concomitant to a 50-gray radiotherapy per 5 weeks. Three more cycles were delivered after completion of radiation therapy. Three to six patients were allocated to each of the five dose levels until MTD was reached. Thirty-three patients were enroled and 21 had metastatic disease. Maximum tolerated dose was oxaliplatin 100 mg m(-2), and continuous infusion 5FU was 600 mg m(-2) day(-) (level 5). The most common toxicities were neutropenia, dysphagia and oesophagitis. The RDs were those of FOLFOX-4 regimen (oxaliplatin 85 mg m(-2) and full doses of LV5FU2). The overall response was 48.5%, including 12% complete response. Response rate on primary tumour was 62.9%. This FOLFOX-4 regimen was reasonably well tolerated and effective in inoperable/metastatic oesophageal carcinoma and warrants additional investigation. 相似文献
