[Complete response of unresectable gastric cancer (Borrmann's type III) treated with combination chemotherapy of UFT and mitomycin--a case report]. 1987

H Iwase, and K Morise, and S Suga, and K Ina, and T Masuda, and M Ohashi

A 69-year-old male visited our hospital in December, 1983, complaining of dysphasia. X-ray and endoscopic examination of the stomach revealed Borrmann's type 3 of the cardia. A biopsy specimen revealed typical features of adenocarcinoma. Because the tumor could not be resected, chemotherapy was started in February, 1984 with a combination of UFT (600 mg/day) and mitomycin (6 mg/week). After five courses of the combination chemotherapy, UFT therapy was continued. Follow-up endoscopy in August, 1985, showed a discolored area of the cardia. A biopsy specimen revealed no evidence of carcinoma. UFT-M therapy is a useful chemotherapy for gastric cancer.
