Summary: From March 1988 to March 1991 51 patients with metastatic
gastric cancer (Phase II Study) were administered combination therapy
including high doses of epirubicin aand 5-fluorouracil. Out of 51 patients
who entered the study 43 were evaluable (> 2 cycles of chemotherapy). The
range of the patients' age was 33-70 years (M=55,6 years). In twenty-seven
patients the performance score was <2, and in sixten 3 (WHO). Twenty-three
patients underwent surgery 5-38 months prior to chemotherapy. The disease
was primary inoperable in 20 patients. Distant metastases were recorded in
the lymph nodes (21), liver (15), peritoneum (11), pleura (5), lungs (4),
skin (2), bones (2) and brain (1). The disease was measurable in 28 and
evauable but not measurable in 15 patients. Combined treatment involved 120
mg/m2i.v. of epirubicin on day 1, and 1000 mg/m2 of 5-fluorouracil in
6-hour infusion on days 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. The cycles were repeated after 4
weeks. Seventeen partial and 2 complete remissions were achieved (44%
response rate; confidence interval 30-60%). The average survival of the
responders was 9 months, and that of non-responders 5 monaths. Toxicity was
moderate, reversible and well tolerated. The presented data confirm the
esablished antitumorigenic activity and tolerabilty of high doses of
5-fluorouracil in the treatment of metastatic gastric cancer.

Summary: From semteber 1991 to August 1994 75 patients with advaced
gastric cancer entered phase III clinical trial. The aim of study was to
determine activity of high doses of 5-fluorouracil and epirubicin (FE) vs.
the same combination+cisplatin (FEP) in that group of patients. Out of 75
patients 62 (44 males and 18 females) were evaluable (>2 cycles of
chemotherapy) The range of patient's age was 27-70 years (M=56), and ECOG
performance status was < 3. The treatment involved in FE arm 120 mg/m2 of
epirubicin i.v. on day 1, and 1000 mg/m2 in 6-hour infusion of
5-fluorouracil on days 1,2,3,4,5; in FEP arm the same combination +
cisplatin 30 mg/m2 on days 2,4 was administered. The cycles were repeated
after 4 weeks. In FE arm, 33 patients were evaluable with 10 partial and 1
complete remission (33,3%,and in FEP arm out of 29 evaluable patients 11
partial and 1 complete remission (41,4%) were observed. Median survival in
FE group was 6,2 mos, and in FEP group 8,2 mos. Test results so far did not
reveal the statistically significant difference between the two treatmens
applied. Toxicity was tolerable and reversible. Our trial being still under
way, the final results wil provide a more accurate answer with regard to
the value of the two administered protocols.
