RESUMEN

A 66-year-old man underwent laparoscopic ileocecal resection for cecal cancer with liver metastasis(cT3N1M1a, cStage Ⅳa). One month later, combination chemotherapy with capecitabine, oxaliplatin, and bevacizumab was administered for liver metastasis. However, during the treatment, peritoneal dissemination and abundant diuretic-resistant ascites was revealed, resulting in poor dietary intake. One year and 11 months after the surgery, the chemotherapy was interrupted and cell-free and concentrated ascites reinfusion therapy(CART)was undergone as palliative care. The initial volume of retrieved ascites was 6,500 mL, and the volume was increased gradually to a maximum of 14,020 mL without hemodynamic instability. Totally CART was administered 10 times during 7 months without any complications: mean volume of retrieved ascites; 9,780 mL/unit, the interval between therapies; 2-3 weeks. Serum albumin level did not decrease since CART administration. His oral intake and daily activities were improved by CART. These clinical outcomes contributed to the readministration of chemotherapy. We present a recent case of safe and periodical CART for abundant refractory ascites in cecal cancer with peritoneal dissemination, resulting in the improvement of QOL and the readministration of chemotherapy.

RESUMEN

A 94-year-old woman presented with anorexia, persisting for several months, and marked anemia. An upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed type 3 advanced gastric cancer in the antrum. CT imaging indicated a large esophageal hiatus hernia and the elevation of the gastric fornix to the level of the bronchus. Wall thickening in the antrum, surrounded by increased fat tissue density, and swollen lymph nodes along the common hepatic artery, were detected. She was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer(cT3N1M0, cStage Ⅲ)and a large hiatal hernia. A laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair and distal gastrectomy were performed. The cancer was exposed outside the serosa in the antrum, yet there was no indication of ascites, liver metastasis or peritoneal dissemination. The esophageal hiatus was sutured, and a distal gastrectomy(Billroth-Ⅱ reconstruction)was conducted. To avert hernia recurrence, sutures were applied to the posterior wall of the abdominal esophagus and the crus of the diaphragm, as well as the fornix of the remnant stomach and the diaphragm. Her postoperative course was uneventful, and she was discharged on POD13. There were no instances of gastric cancer recurrence or hiatal hernia 7 months post-operation.

RESUMEN

The case is a female, 50s. She presented to our hospital because of her intestinal obstruction. A CT scan at her visit showed wall thickening of her ascending colon. Colonoscopy revealed type 2 advanced cancer in the ascending colon. The pathological examination was a diagnosis of adenocarcinoma. Laparoscopic right hemicolectomy was performed for cT3N1M0, cStage Ⅲb ascending colon cancer. The pathological result was pT3N1M0, Stage Ⅲb. Contrast-enhanced CT was performed 10 months after the operation. As a result, she was found to have recurrent multiple liver metastases. A laparoscopic partial hepatectomy was performed at the site of recurrence. The pathological result was adenocarcinoma. It was a diagnosis of metastasis recurrence from colorectal cancer. A CT scan 16 months after primary surgery revealed enlarged cardiodiaphragmatic lymph nodes. A PET-CT scan revealed an accumulation of SUVmax 3.0 in the same area. She was diagnosed with lymph node recurrence of colorectal cancer and underwent resection. Histopathological result was adenocarcinoma. It was diagnosed as metastasis from ascending colon cancer.

RESUMEN

An 82-year-old man presented with right cervical swelling. Cervical ultrasonography revealed several swollen lymph nodes which were diagnosed with adenocarcinoma by fine needle aspiration cytology. Computed tomography showed right axillary lymph nodes were also swelling. Upper and lower gastrointestinal endoscopy found type 0-Ⅱa gastric cancer located at the posterior wall of the middle region. Pathology was HER2-positive moderately differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma. Doublet chemotherapy with S-1 and cisplatin was administered for unresectable gastric cancer(cT1bN0M1, cStage Ⅳb). One month later, doublet chemotherapy was changed to triplet chemotherapy with trastuzumab, capecitabine, and cisplatin. A month later, complete response(CR)was achieved. After 8 courses of triplet chemotherapy, we changed to doublet chemotherapy with trastuzumab and capecitabine due to impaired kidney function 8 months. Two months later from that, endoscopic mucosal dissection was performed for gastric cancer as local therapy(pathology: well differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma, pT1a, ly0, v0). Two years and 2 months after the beginning of chemotherapy, the right axillary lymph nodes were enlarged again and surgically resected(pathology: HER2-positive poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma). He had CR for 8 years and 2 months, and chemotherapy was canceled due to his decision. During 1 year and 7 months, disease progression was not observed. We present a long-term survival case of HER2-positive gastric cancer with distant lymph node metastasis receiving multidisciplinary therapy.

RESUMEN

LESSONS LEARNED: The 3-year disease-free survival rate of the twice-daily regimen was not inferior to that of the conventional three-times-daily regimen, and the twice-daily regimen did not lead to an increase in adverse events. The effectiveness of the twice-daily regimen highlights an increased number of treatment options for patients. This will facilitate personalized medicine, particularly for elderly or frail patients who may experience more severe side effects from the combination therapy. BACKGROUND: Tegafur-uracil (UFT)/leucovorin calcium (LV) is an adjuvant chemotherapy treatment for colorectal cancer. We conducted a multicenter randomized trial to assess the noninferiority of a twice-daily compared with a three-times-daily UFT/LV regimen for stage II/III colorectal cancer in an adjuvant setting. METHODS: Patients were randomly assigned to group A (three doses of UFT [300 mg/m2 per day]/LV [75 mg per day]) or B (two doses of UFT [300 mg/m2 per day]/LV [50 mg per day]). The primary endpoint was 3-year disease-free survival. RESULTS: In total, 386 patients were enrolled between July 28, 2011, and September 27, 2013. The 3-year disease-free survival rates of group A (n = 194) and B (n = 192) were 79.4% and 81.4% (95% confidence interval, 72.6-84.4-74.5-85.9), respectively. The most common grade 3/4 adverse events in group A and B were diarrhea (3.9% vs. 7.3%), neutropenia (2.9% vs. 1.6%), increase in aspartate aminotransferase (4.0% vs. 3.9%), increase in alanine aminotransferase (6.2% vs. 6.8%), nausea (1.7% vs. 3.4%), and fatigue (1.1% vs. 2.3%). CONCLUSION: Group B outcomes were not inferior to group A outcomes, and adverse events did not increase.

RESUMEN

The patient was a 60-year-old man who underwent distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer. The pathological diagnosis was Stage ⅡB. He received adjuvant chemotherapy(capecitabine plus oxaliplatin: CapeOX)for 6months and the postoperative course was uneventful. One year and 3 months after surgery, he visited the outpatient department for acute lower back pain. Blood tests showed elevated ALP(3,752 U/L), LDH(308 U/L), and CA19-9(69.4 U/mL)levels. Bone scintigraphy showed multiple bone metastases to the femora, ischium, iliac bone, vertebrae, sternum, costae, and scapulae in a super bone scan. The onset of disseminated intravascular coagulation(DIC)was observed later. The patient was diagnosed with disseminated carcinomatosis of the bone marrow. Radiation therapy was performed and anti-RANKL monoclonal antibody was administered for the bone metastases. Recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin was administered for DIC. He received chemotherapy( TS-1 plus cisplatin: SP)but died 4 months after the diagnosis. The prognosis of disseminated carcinomatosis of the bone marrow is extremely poor. We report this case along with a literature review.

RESUMEN

A 70 -year-old male patient was referred to our hospital with the chief complaint of hemafecia. Colonoscopy was performed and revealed bulky rectal cancer at 10 cm from the anal verge. After 4 courses of capecitabine plus oxaliplatin(Ca peOX)therapy as preoperative chemotherapy, colonoscopy and computed tomography(CT)revealed significant reduction of the tumor. We performed laparoscopic lower anterior resection and ileostomy. Histopathological examination revealed no residual tumor cells, and a diagnosis of pathological complete response was made. The patient has been disease-free for 1 year postoperatively.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: We previously reported in the SENRI trial on the usefulness of aprepitant for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in colorectal cancer patients receiving an oxaliplatin-based regimen which is classified as moderately emetogenic cancer chemotherapy. In the present subgroup analysis of the SENRI trial, we assessed the risk factors for CINV in colorectal cancer patients who received oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy. METHODS: Multivariate logistic regression models were used to assess the impact of aprepitant use and patient characteristics on vomiting and nausea. We also assessed the proportion of CINV in patients by gender. RESULTS: Female gender and aprepitant use were associated with the incidence of vomiting and no significant nausea. Significantly more men achieved no vomiting than women (92.9 vs 84.5 % in men and women, respectively; P = 0.0001). The rate of no nausea, complete response, complete protection, and total control was also higher in men. The rate rescue therapy use was significantly higher in women than men. We compared the rate of CINV between aprepitant and control groups and found a significant difference in male patients who achieved no vomiting and complete protection in the overall phase. In women, the rate of no nausea, no vomiting, and total control was higher in the aprepitant group than in the control group. CONCLUSIONS: Gender and aprepitant use were risk factors for CINV in colorectal patients who received oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy. Aprepitant therapy was more effective for women than for men in the prevention of CINV in colorectal cancer patients receiving an oxaliplatin-based regimen.

RESUMEN

Malignant stricture and fistula of the esophagus and tracheobronchus adversely affect the quality of life(QOL)in patients with advanced esophageal cancer. Stenting is one ofthe therapies available for these patients. We investigated the outcomes ofesophagus and tracheobronchial stenting in our institution. Eight patients with advanced esophageal cancer underwent double stenting from 2010 to 2016. Among them, 4 patients underwent double stenting as planned. One patient underwent an emergency tracheal stenting because ofstenosis ofthe trachea caused by esophageal stenting. Three patients underwent tracheobronchial stenting later on because ofan increase in the tumor size after esophageal stenting. Dysphagia score was improved in 5(67.5%)out ofthe 8 patients. Respiratory symptoms were improved in all patients, and 4 patients(50.0%) were discharged. The median survival time after esophageal stenting was 70.5 days. Esophagus and tracheobronchial stenting for advanced esophageal cancer was useful for the improvement of the QOL.

RESUMEN

Chemotherapy is performed for the recurrence of gastric cancer in many cases. We report a case of recurrent lymph node metastasis successfully treated with chemoradiotherapy and chemotherapy. A man in his 60s underwent total gastrectomy and D2 dissection in 2009. The pathological diagnosis was poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, T4a, int, INF b, ly2, v2, LN#2: 2/3, #3: 1/4, #7, 8, and 9: 3/4, stage III B. Although we administered S-1/UFT as postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, a strong rash appeared and the patient ceased chemotherapy. Eight months later, the rash had disappeared. We started chemotherapy with paclitaxel(PAC). CT performed 1 year postoperatively showed celiac lymph node(#9)metastasis. Chemoradiotherapy( RT+PAC)and additional CPT-11(98mg)and CDDP(49mg)treatment were administered. The lymph node (#9)was cicatrized after 8 cycles. Forty-two months after the end of treatment, the patient has had no recurrence. It is thought that chemoradiotherapy is an effective cure for local recurrence of gastric cancer.

RESUMEN

A 56-year-old man had been treated for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy since childhood. He had been treated for refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT) with interventricular septum cauterization, catheter ablation, and implantation of a defibrillator. He had been treated at home for several years. The ileus that developed in July 2014 was relieved by conservative medical treatment once, but it recurred after oral intake of food a short time later. The obstruction was due to a small intestine cancer that was diagnosed by enteroscopy. After considering the risks of surgery due to the cardiac problem and the quality of life due to ileus caused by the mass, we resected it. This surgery was not a radical resection because of peritoneal dissemination. He started oral food intake postoperatively, and returned to home care. Three months after surgery, oral chemotherapy was administered after considering his stable cardiac function in addition to his coherent mental status. An adverse event of severe watery diarrhea developed, and VT caused by dehydration occurred. After the chemotherapy was discontinued, he recovered in intensive care. He returned to home care at his prior status for 9 months postoperatively.

RESUMEN

Carcinosarcoma of the esophagus is a rare malignant neoplasm. We report a case of an 87-year-old man treated with chemoradiotherapy. The main presenting complaint was hiccups. Histological analysis of a biopsy from the tumor demonstrated a carcinosarcoma. The clinical diagnosis was T2N0M0, cStageⅡ. In consideration of his advanced age, a past history of cerebral infarction, high blood pressure, aortic valve sclerosis, and chronic renal failure (Cr 1.5-1.8 mg/dL), chemoradiotherapy consisting of TS-1 40 mg/day with radiotherapy of 66 Gy was administered to the patient. The carcinosarcoma decreased in size on endoscopic examination in response to the chemoradiotherapy. Surgery with extended lymphadenectomy for esophageal carcinosarcoma is the standard treatment, but chemotherapy may be a good choice for local control for patients who cannot undergo surgical resection.

RESUMEN

An 80-year-old woman was treated with low anterior resection and D3 lymph node dissection for rectal carcinoid in August 2007. Pathological diagnosis was a tumor 23 × 22 mm in size with muscularis propria invasion, ly1, v0, n1 (No. 251[1/12]). Partial hepatectomy was performed for liver metastasis in March 2010 and September 2011. In June 2013, an isolated tumor of 17 mm in diameter was detected between the inferior vena cava and the stomach using abdominal ultrasonography. The tumor was diagnosed as pancreatic head lymph node metastasis using abdominal enhanced computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP), and positron emission tomography (PET); fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake was noted at the site of the tumor, but not at other parts of the body. Curative resection was the chosen treatment option. Open surgery was performed in September 2013, and a tumor 30 mm in diameter located at the ventral side of the inferior vena cava, lateral side of the portal vein, and cranial side of duodenum was resected. No surrounding tissue infiltration was found. Pathological analysis of the resected specimen indicated lymph node metastasis of the rectal carcinoid. The patient has been disease free for 9 months after surgery.

RESUMEN

A man in his 60s received SP (S-1+CDDP) therapy for gastric cancer with multiple liver metastases. After completion of 3 courses, liver metastases had reduced significantly, and the paraaortic lymph nodes, which had swelled previously, had reduced in size. Furthermore, the serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) level had also improved to the standard value from 814.3 ng/mL. The patient was able to discontinue the opioid he had needed for pain control. The chemotherapy was continued for 18 courses, with the dose reduced at the time of the adverse events along the way. By completion of the 18 courses, we recognized regrowth of the primary lesion and a rise in the serum CEA over the standard value. There was no sign of the regrowth of liver metastases and distant lymph nodes according to examinations for enhanced computed tomography (CT) and ¹8F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron-emission tomography (FDG-PET) CT.The patient received distal gastrectomy. The CEA level decreased in standard value or less after surgery and we believed the cancer was limited to the primary stomach lesion.

RESUMEN

UNLABELLED: Retrospective studies have suggested that UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT)1A1, UGT1A7, and UGT1A9 predict severe toxicity and efficacy of irinotecan-containing regimens. We prospectively evaluated the impact of UGT1A genotypes and haplotypes on severe toxicity and efficacy in patients treated with fluorouracil, leucovorin, and irinotecan combination chemotherapy (FOLFIRI) for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) from the two prospective multicenter phase II studies in Japan. The FLIGHT1 study was a first-line FOLFIRI trial, and FLIGHT2 was a FOLFOX-refractory, second-line FOLFIRI trial. A total of 73 patients agreed to additional analysis, and were genotyped for UGT1A polymorphisms, UGT1A1*28 (TA6>TA7), UGT1A1*6 (211G>A), UGT1A1*27 (686C>A), UGT1A1*60 (-3279T>G), UGT1A1*93 (-3156G>A), UGT1A7 (-57T>G), UGT1A7*3 (387T>G, 622T>C), and UGT1A9*22 (T9>T10). Of 73 patients, 34 developed G3/4 severe hematological toxicities. The toxicities were significantly more frequent in patients with UGT1A1*6 (211A), UGT1A7 (387G), and UGT1A9*22 reference alleles (T9). Haplotype I, which consists of all favorable alleles, was associated with a significant reduction in hematologic toxicity (P = 0.031). In contrast, haplotype II, which contains four high-risk alleles, showed significantly higher hematologic toxicity than the other haplotypes (P = 0.010). Six out of seven patients who were homozygous for UGT1A1*28 or *6 experienced severe hematological toxicity despite the fact that their response rate was not impaired (42.9%). We concluded that UGT1A polymorphisms, especially UGT1A1*6, are important for the prediction of severe toxicity of FOLFIRI in northeast Asian populations. In this regard, haplotype analyses should substantially impact the prediction of severe hematological toxicities of FOLFIRI. ( CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: UMIN000002388 and UMIN000002476).

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Combined chemotherapy with S-1 and irinotecan (IRIS) for metastatic colorectal cancer has been reported to be effective and safe. However, there are only a few studies on the effects of adding bevacizumab to IRIS. We conducted a clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of IRIS plus bevacizumab as first-line therapy for metastatic colorectal cancer. METHODS: Forty metastatic colorectal cancer patients were enrolled in this phase II study. All patients received irinotecan (80 mg/m(2)) and bevacizumab (7 mg/kg) on days 1 and 15 and S-1 (40-60 mg twice daily) on days 1-21 of a 5-week repeated cycle. RESULTS: The response rate was 47.4% [95% confidence interval (CI) 31.5-63.2], progression-free survival was 11.9 months (95% CI 9.4-16.8), and overall survival was 23.4 months (95% CI 19.0-inf). The only grade 3 hematological toxicity was neutropenia (16%) and the incidences of grade 3 nonhematological toxicity were low at <10%, other than diarrhea (10.9%). CONCLUSION: In this clinical study, we revealed IRIS plus bevacizumab to be a promising first-line regimen for metastatic colorectal cancer with a low incidence of serious toxicities, in which favorable response rates and extension of survival time can be expected.

RESUMEN

We report a case of long-term survival of a patient with locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer treated with gemcitabine after chemoradiation therapy( CRTx). A 61-year-old woman was diagnosed as having locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer, 3.0 cm in diameter, which had invaded the superior mesenteric artery by computed tomography (CT). She was treated with CRTx( gemcitabine[ GEM] at 250 mg/m2/week for 6 weeks+liniac irradiation of 50.2 Gy) followed by systemic chemotherapy (gemcitabine (GEM) at 1,000 mg/m2). Reassessment after CRTx yielded a diagnosis of stable disease (according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST] 1.1). To date, the patient has undergone 57 courses of chemotherapy in the outpatient clinic; however, she did require biliary stent placement because of occlusive jaundice.

RESUMEN

A 63-year-old man visited our clinic with a chief complaint of a left axillary mass, and after a series of examinations, gastric cancer was diagnosed. Histopathological examination revealed a human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER)-2- positive( immunohistochemistry[ IHC], 2+; fluorescence in situ hybridization[ FISH], positive) poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, and SPT therapy( S-1 at 120 mg/m2/day+cisplatin[ CDDP] at 60 mg/m2+trastuzumab at 8 mg/kg) was initiated. The primary lesion and swollen lymph nodes initially decreased markedly in size; however, the lymph node swelling worsened at 186 days( 6.2 months) after the initiation of treatment. Progressive disease( PD) was diagnosed, and SPT therapy was terminated. One cycle of S-1+docetaxel was administered as second-line therapy, but the regimen was changed to docetaxel monotherapy due to adverse effects. After 5 cycles of this treatment, the primary lesion had decreased in size and the lymphadenopathy disappeared. Positron emission tomography( PET)-computed tomography (CT) revealed fluorodeoxyglucose( F18)( FDG) accumulation only in the primary lesion, and therefore, with the patient's informed consent distal gastrectomy was performed approximately 14 months after the first treatment. The postoperative diagnosis was gastric cancer fStage IA (T1a, N0, and M0). Here, we discuss a case of HER2-positive gastric cancer with references. Among the advanced recurrent gastric cancers tested between April 2011 and February 2013, 16.4% (11/67) were HER2-positive.

RESUMEN

We report a case of long-term survival after combination chemotherapy and surgical resection of a cancer of unknown primary site[ CUPs]. A septuagenarian female was identified as having high blood levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) during follow-up monitoring of asthma. Endoscopy and imaging studies including computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET)-CT revealed a malignant lymph node adjacent to the abdominal aorta; however, no other lesion was detected. Therefore, we performed CT-guided biopsy and diagnosed the lesion to be a lymph node metastasis of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. As we considered this as a systemic disease, the patient received 2 courses of combination chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil( 5-FU)/cisplatin( CDDP) and achieved a partial response (PR). Later, the patient received S-1 therapy as second-line chemotherapy and S-1/irinotecan( CPT-11) as third-line chemotherapy in an outpatient clinic. However, the tumor continued to grow, and therefore, we decided to perform surgical resection. Histopathological examination of the resected specimen yielded a diagnosis of metastatic adenocarcinoma of the lymph node. The patient has been well without any signs of recurrence for more than 9 years since surgery. As CUPs is generally associated with poor prognosis, this case raises the possibility that combination therapy might improve convalescence.

RESUMEN

We report a case of low anterior resection that led to a pathological complete response of locally recurrent rectal cancer to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. A 57-year-old male patient underwent low anterior resection for rectal cancer pathologically diagnosed as type 2, tub2>tub1,pSS,INF b,int,ly2,v2,pPM0,pDM0,no,M0,H0,P0, and fStage II. After 2 years and 11 months, local recurrence of his rectal cancer was identified by colon fiberscopy. Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy was conducted with CPT-11, UFT/LV, and radiation(50 Gy),and this recurrent lesion exhibited a partial response to the chemoradiotherapy regimen according to magnetic resonance imaging findings. Then, we performed total pelvic exenteration, and the pathological examination revealed a pathological complete response.
