Abstract

Although combination of S-1 and cisplatin (CDDP) is a standard therapy for advance or recurrent gastric cancer patients, there are some cases where a CDDP administration is difficult for patients. We here report three such cases of gastric cancer treated by S-1 and docetaxel (DOC) combination therapy. Based on our three cases, we believe that S-1 and DOC combination therapy could be suitable for outpatients showing safety and efficacy.
