[Three successful case reports of advanced gastric cancer with chemotherapy].

We report three successful cases with continuous systemic chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer. Case 1: A 67-year-old male with gastric cancer. Abdominal CT showed the invasion in the pancreas and as a result, continuous systemic infusion of low-dose cisplatin (CDDP 20 mg/day) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU 1,000 mg/day) was performed.

[A case of liver metastasis of gastric cancer responding well to TS-1].

We report the case of a 79-year-old female with gastric cancer accompanied by liver metastasis that was successfully treated by TS-1, a novel oral fluoropyrimidine derivative. Abdominal CT scan showed a low-density area in the lateral segment of the liver and lymph node swelling in the right side of the abdominal aorta. One treatment course consisted of 4 weeks of TS-1 administration (100 mg daily) followed by a 2-week break.
