2013
An 84-year-old man had the wall thickness of his stomach accidentally detected by CT scan, and was diagnosed as type 2 advanced gastric cancer with liver and lung metastasis. Chemotherapy with docetaxel, cisplatin and S-1 combination therapy was adopted. Grade 4 neutropenia was revealed, but the treatment could be continued by G-CSF or by down dosing the anticancer agents. By maintaining CR of the primary lesion and PR of the liver and lung metastases, he has been kept at a PS 0 state and has been receiving regular outpatient treatment for 28 months now since the beginning of treatment.
