Abstract

We have experienced a case of gastric cancer with multiple liver metastases resistant to combined treatment of TS-1 and CDDP. After the treatment with TS-1 and CDDP, abdominal CT demonstrated a progressive growth of metastatic liver tumor. Administration of CPT-11 (80 mg/body) by a hepatic arterial infusion inhibited the growth of metastatic liver tumor and decreased serum levels of CEA and CA19-9 for several months without a significant adverse side effect.
