nificant differences. Patients with low serum levels of immunosuppressive acidic protein (IAP) showed a significantly higher response rate (71.4%) than those with high IAP levels (0%). Toxic effects included leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, nausea, and vomiting; these were not life-threatening and did not require treatment interruption.

CONCLUSIONS.

FP therapy is a promising regimen for patients with advanced and recurrent gastric adenocarcinoma. Serum levels of IAP may predict chemosensitivity.
