AbstractRegional chemotherapy was given 16 unresectable gastric cancer patients. Two types of the chemotherapy, intraperitoneal (IP) and intraaortic (IA) administration, were carried out. The control group was comprised of 17 patients. The response of the chemotherapy for primary tumor was 36.4% in the IP group and 20% in the IA one. Among these patients, 2 of 11 in IP and 1 of 5 in IA were able to resect the primary tumor. The 50% survival time of IP, IA and control was 347, 227 and 78 days, respectively. One-year survival rates of IP, IA and control were 68%, 29% and 0%, respectively. IP showed a significantly longer survival rate than controls (p < 0.001). All but one patient was able to stay at home. Intraperitoneal chemotherapy showed both local and systemic effects in unresectable gastric cancer.
