Abstract: | Purpose Peritoneal dissemination is the most frequent and life-threatening mode of metastasis and recurrence in patients with gastric cancer. A multicenter phase II study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of S-1 and docetaxel combination chemotherapy regimen for the treatment of advanced or recurrent gastric cancer patients with peritoneal dissemination. Methods Nineteen patients with histologically confirmed unresectable or recurrent gastric cancer with peritoneal dissemination were enrolled. Oral S-1 at 80 mg/m2/day was administered twice daily for 2 weeks, followed by 1 drug-free week. Docetaxel infusion at 40 mg/m2 was performed on day 1, simultaneous with S-1 administration. The primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and time to progression (TTP). The secondary endpoints were the response rates and safety status. Results Patients received a median of 4 cycles of the S-1 and docetaxel regimen (range 1–43). The disease control rate was 73.7 % (14/19). Median overall survival was 459 days (15.3 months), while median time to progression was 212 days (7.1 months). Neutropenia was the most common type of toxicity (n = 7, 36.8 %). Conclusions Combination chemotherapy with S-1 and docetaxel is a tolerable and effective treatment for advanced or recurrent gastric cancer patients with peritoneal dissemination. |
