Abstract

To assess the usefulness of irinotecan plus S-1 therapy based on the antitumor effect and survival period. by performing a phase II study of this combination in patients with inoperable or with postoperative colorectal cancer.

Description

A multicenter Open-label, single-arm, phase II clinical trial is conducted on patients with histological stage IV colorectal cancer given irinotecan plus S-1. The usefulness of this regimens as 1st line therapy for colorectal cancer was evaluated by the disease-free survival rate (DFR), overall survival rate (OS), incidence and severity of adverse event.
