S-1 combined with cisplatin chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the short-term efficacy and safety of S-1 combined with cisplatin (DDP) chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer (AGC).

MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty-six patients were diagnosed with AGC and were admitted to our department from February 2012 to January 2015 and retrospectively analyzed. Of these patients, 31 (experimental group) underwent S-1 combined with DDP chemotherapy and 35 received oxaliplatin combined with tegafur and calcium folinate chemotherapy regimen (control group). The chemotherapy regimen for the experimental group included S-1, 60 mg bid on d1-d14 and 60 mg/m 2 DDP by intravenous dripping on d1-d3, with 4 weeks in a cycle. The chemotherapy regimen for the control group consisted of 130 mg/m 2 oxaliplatin by intravenous dripping, d1; 600 mg/m 2 tegafur by intravenous dripping on d1-d5; and 120 mg/m 2 calcium folinate by intravenous dripping on d1-d5, with 3 weeks in a cycle. The efficacies and adverse effects of the two regimens were assessed after three cycles.

RESULTS: After three cycles, the objective response rates of the experimental and control groups were 41.94% and 42.86%, without significantly difference (P > 0.05), respectively. However, the incidence rate of adverse drug reactions in Grades 3-4 in the experimental group was significantly lower than that of control group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSION: The short-term efficacy of primary S-1 with DDP chemotherapy for AGC is relatively satisfactory with less adverse effects.
