Trial Information

A Phase I/II, Open-Label, Nonrandomized, Dose-Finding Safety, Tolerance, Pharmacokinetic, and Efficacy Study of Orally Administered S-1 in Combination With Cisplatin in Patients With Advanced Gastric Cancer


S-1 is an oral fluoropyrimidine which combines tegafur (a 5-FU prodrug) with two classes of
modulators which:

- inhibit dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) and

- block phosphorylation of 5-FU in gastrointestinal tissues.

S-1 is designed to enhance the the clinical utility of an oral fluoropyrimidine while
ameliorating the disadvantage of gastrointestinal toxicity.

5-Fu and cisplatin have been used as a standard treatment in gastric cancer and preliminary
data indicate that S-1 plus cisplatin may result in superior tolerability and efficacy in
advanced gastric cancer.

S-1 is currently approved in Japan for treatment of gastric cancer and head and neck cancer.
