Dept. of Surgery, Kumamoto Rosai Hospital.

A patient with advanced gastric cancer was treated with combined administration of CPT-11 CDDP and 5-FU before operation. CPT-11 was given intravenously at a dose of 30 mg/m2/day on day 1 and day 8. At the same time, 5 mg/m2/day CDDP and 350 mg/m2/day 5-FU were infused for 2 weeks. The patient experienced no other adverse reaction than a mild degree of nausea. Histological examination of the resected specimen revealed complete disappearance of cancer cells both in the stomach and the regional lymphnodes.

D002166 Camptothecin An alkaloid isolated from the stem wood of the Chinese tree, Camptotheca acuminata. This compound selectively inhibits the nuclear enzyme DNA TOPOISOMERASES, TYPE I. Several semisynthetic analogs of camptothecin have demonstrated antitumor activity. Camptothecine
D002945 Cisplatin An inorganic and water-soluble platinum complex. After undergoing hydrolysis, it reacts with DNA to produce both intra and interstrand crosslinks. These crosslinks appear to impair replication and transcription of DNA. The cytotoxicity of cisplatin correlates with cellular arrest in the G2 phase of the cell cycle.
