[A case of advanced gastric cancer treated with S-1/CDDP combination chemotherapy through jejunostomy].

: Recently, although chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer has been proving more highly effective, no standard chemotherapy for gastric cancer has been established. We administered S-1 combined with cisplatin (div) to a patient with advanced gastric cancer who underwent a jejunostomy because of swallowing difficulties (PS 4) due to cerebral infarction. The overall response of this chemotherapy was a partial response (PR) for 14 months. We concluded that the administration of S-1 combined with cisplatin (div) through a jejunostomy can improve the nutrition management and the quality of life (QOL) of a patient with advanced gastric cancer who is incapable of oral intake.
