Stomach Neoplasms
Conditions
Brief summary
This phase II trial will evaluate, in first line advanced or metastatic gastric cancer, the efficacy and tolerance of another oxaliplatin, 5FU bolus combination already tested in advanced colorectal cancer
Interventions
5FU 500 mg/m² per week in IV bolus infusion during 30 min AF 20mg/m²/week in infusion, during 10-20 minutes prior 5FU infusion; Eloxatin 85 mg/m² as IV infusion 2-6 hours, every 2 weeks. Three weeks of treatment, one week rest.
