A 59-year-old-male with advanced gastric cancer and multiple liver metastasis was treated by intravenous administration of MMC (30 mg/body) and oral administration of HCFU (400mg/body/day) initially after palliative gastrectomy. CT scan revealed that liver metastatic lesions were undetectable at three months after operation. Seven months later, administration of HCFU was discontinued because liver metastatic lesions were observed again. Intravenous administration of MMC (10mg/body)+ACR (20mg/body) was performed four times weekly, but liver metastatic lesions were increasing in size. From 15 months after operation intravenous administration of CDDP (25mg/body/week) was started on an outpatient basis. After administration of CDDP 6 times, liver metastatic lesions were diminished in size. By CT scan the maximum percent reduction of liver metastatic lesions was 97% and duration of partial response was seven months. Eight months later, liver metastatic lesions regrew. At 28 months after operation, the patient died of liver metastatic lesions. This low dose regimen of CDDP on an outpatient basis is potentially useful in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer with multiple liver metastasis.
