Brief Summary: A randomized controlled study is conducted on unresectable advanced gastric carcinoma and recurrent gastric carcinoma to compare TS-1 therapy with TS-1 PSK therapy The primary endpoint of this study is progression-free survival PFS with secondary endpoints of anticancer effect time to treatment failure TTF QOL FACT-BRM compliance adverse drug reactions and immunological factors
Detailed Description: Tegafur gimeracil oteracil potassium TS-1 is widely used as a first-line drug for unresectable advanced gastric carcinoma and recurrent gastric carcinoma in Japan and the response rate of TS-1 against gastric carcinoma was reported to be excellent at 465 in a phase II study However since adverse drug reactions tend to occur in patients treated with standard regimen of TS-1 drug reduction or discontinuation is often required which is one drawback of this drug On the other hand although Krestin PSK has been reported to show survival effects in postoperative immunochemotherapy against gastric carcinoma the efficacy of PSK has not been established in patients with unresectable advanced gastric carcinoma and recurrent gastric carcinoma Since the main effect of PSK was to recover physiological functions including immune function of the host it was expected that PSK would improve the compliance of TS-1 by alleviating adverse drug reactions of TS-1 therapy and the concomitant use of TS-1 with PSK would result in the improvement of treatment results Therefore we decided to conduct a randomized phase II study on patients with unresectable advanced gastric carcinoma and recurrent gastric carcinoma to compare TS-1 therapy with TS-1PSK therapy
