| Abstract: | A postoperative long term chemotherapy was carried out against stage IV gastric cancer with Mitomycin-C, Futraful and a plant
polysaccharide, PS-K. The 2-year survival rate was 15 per cent in patients who received an intraoperative Mitomycin-C alone,
while it increased to 34 per cent in those receiving the anticancer agents for a prolonged period. The postoperative long
term chemotherapy is assumed to be an effective means of improving the therapeutical results of gastric cancer. |
