Clinical Trial: Intraperitoneal Floxuridine in Gastric Carcinoma
This study is currently recruiting patients.
|
Purpose
Patients undergoing curative resection for gastric cancer have been shown to benefit from postoperative chemotherapy with 5-fluoruracil + leucovorin, and radiation in an Intergroup Study (INT116). However, both local and distal relapses still occur in 50% at 3 years. This study is based on the hypothesis that 2 cycles (of 3 days each 2 weeks apart) of intraperitoneal FUDR (floxuridine), followed by the above treatment will improve outcome.
