[A Case of Advanced Gastric Cancer with Long-Term Survival after Chemotherapy with Combined S-1 and CPT-11].

Abstract Here, we report a 54-year-old man diagnosed with type 3 advanced gastric cancer who underwent a total gastrectomy and splenectomy plus D2 lymphadenectomy. The pathologic diagnosis was Stage Ⅳ (T3N0H0P0CY1M1). Sixteen courses of combined S-1/CPT-11 chemotherapy were completed, at which time the CPT-11 was discontinued because of malaise, and S-1 alone was continued for a year. The patient is well and has been recurrence-free for 7 years. Thus, he is considered a long- term survivor who was treated with combination S-1/CPT-11 chemotherapy.
