[A pilot study of TS-1+CDDP therapy for highly advanced stage IV gastric cancer].

We performed a pilot study of combination chemotherapy with TS-1 and cisplatin for highly advanced gastric cancer. From June 2002, 12 patients with multiple liver metastases, carcinomatous lymphangitis or peritoneal dissemination, were enrolled in the study. TS-1 was administered at a daily dose on day 1-21 and an intermediate-dose of cisplatin (60 mg/m2) was administered on day 8.
