“…On the other hand, APGC is thought to have a better response rate to chemotherapy than non-APGC [9]. Table 1 [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] shows the chemotherapy regimens and effects that were reported from 2000 to 2008. Recently, fluoropyrimidine-based therapy, especially S-1, has been chosen as chemotherapy for APGC.…”

A 67-year-old male with advanced gastric cancer and lymph node metastasis as well as a tumor embolus in the portal vein was treated by S-1/cisplatin therapy. The serum alpha-fetoprotein levels were elevated to 836 ng/ml at the first visit. After one course of chemotherapy, the patient showed stable disease; the serum level of alpha-fetoprotein also decreased to 626 ng/ml after a transient increase, and therefore reduction surgery was performed. A total gastrectomy with a distal pancreatectomy, splenectomy, and regional lymph node dissection was performed. The resected specimen was diagnosed to be alpha-fetoprotein-producing gastric cancer. There were no metastatic foci in the resected lymph nodes, presumably due to the preoperative chemotherapy. S-1/cisplatin therapy was continued after the operation to treat the remaining tumor embolus in the portal vein. After one course of this therapy, the tumor embolus disappeared. However, a lymph node measuring 1.5 cm in diameter appeared in the hepatoduodenal ligament. Therefore, the chemotherapy was changed to paclitaxel monotherapy. After 2 courses of paclitaxel monotherapy, the lymph node swelled, and thus 5'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine was added to the paclitaxel regimen. After 5 courses of this regimen, the lymph node swelling disappeared without any other new lesions and a total of 21 courses were performed. The patient remained stable for over 8 years without recurrence. The expression of chemoresistance-related proteins was retrospectively analyzed by immunohistochemistry to evaluate the chemoresistance. The ortate phosphoribosyltransferase expression was strongly positive, and the good outcome in this case may have been associated with this result.

We report the case of a patient with advanced gastric cancer producing alpha fetoprotein (AFP), who was treated successfully by adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 for 36 months. The patient, a 75-year-old man, was admitted for anemia, and was diagnosed as having gastric cancer by endoscopy. Distal gastrectomy was performed in May 2008. Histopathological examination plus immunohistochemistry confirmed that the tumor produced AFP; the tumor stage was determined as T2 N0 P0 CY0, Stage Ⅱ A. The serum AFP level was elevated to 23.4ng/ml. Since the prognosis of AFP-producing gastric carcinoma is poor, the patient was treated with S-1 for three years, guided by the serum AFP level. By the end of three years of chemotherapy, the serum AFP level had returned to the normal range. At present, more than 5 years since the surgery, the patient remains well, without evidence of recurrence (as determined by the serum AFP level and abdominal CT).
