Chemotherapy with FT-207 suppository (Futraful supo) for head and neck cancer was studied by Six Medical Schools in Kanagawa Prefecture, and its effectiveness and side effects were examined. Seventy-five cases were treated with this drug. However, thirty-four cases were used for the final evaluation, with regard to the given dose etc. Generally, the effectiveness rate was 23.5%. Thyroid cancer, nasal cancer and paranasal sinus cancer gave the best results. All four cases of adenocarcinoma showed an effect. One case, who was given a higher dose, showed an increased effect. Also, cases which has not been treated with any other therapeutic procedure previously, showed a significant effectiveness rate. Side effects were observed in 45.2% of cases. These were largely appetite loss and so on, which concerned the digestive system. On the whole, it has been proved that FT-207 suppository (Futraful Supo) is useful as an induction chemotherapeutic drug for head and neck cancer.
