β¦ Synopsis
A case of unresectable advanced gastric cancer was treated with cisdichlorodiammine platinum (CDDP) at a dosage of 30 mg/day for 5 days every month after operation. After three courses of administration, examinations revealed that the tumor had disappeared, and an evaluation of complete response was made. Four months later, a second-look operation was performed; and it was found that the cancer was smaller than a thumb and could be resected radically. No significant side effects were observed during CDDP therapy.
