A Case of Complete Response to Multiple Liver Metastasis of Gastric Cancer after Discontinuation of S-1 Administration
Summary
An 80-year-old man was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer and underwent distal gastrectomy. Although the pathological Stage of the cancer was ⅢA, he refused adjuvant chemotherapy. One year later, CT revealed multiple liver metastases. Therefore, he was started with S-1 administration and a complete response was obtained at 10 months after starting S-1 administration. He has maintained a complete response for 22 months after S-1 discontinuation.
