Title: [Two cases of multiple liver metastases of colon cancer with systemic irinotecan and hepatic arterial injection of 5-FU]. Author: Nakamura Y, Kamigaki T, Tamura T, Kunimoto Y, Habara K, Fukumoto S, Iwasaki T, Nakamura T, Ku Y, Kuroda Y. Journal: Gan To Kagaku Ryoho; 2001 Oct; 28(11):1772-5. PubMed ID: 11708031. Abstract: We describe two patients with multiple liver metastases of colon cancer, who simultaneously received systemic irinotecan and hepatic arterial injection of 5-FU. In both cases, a notable partial response (more than 80%) in the hepatic metastases was observed. The patients could undergo chemotherapy without remarkable side-effects as out-patients. In the future, we shall perform a clinical study to evaluate the safety and dose limiting toxicity for the present combined chemotherapy.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
