Abstract
The authors report on the results of combined chemotherapy using cyclical alternations with several non-crossed resistant combinations in patients with gastric carcinoma in the adjuvant and palliative indication. The report includes also a small group of 6 patients with locally inoperable carcinoma, treated by radio-chemotherapy, followed by subsequent second-look resection and postoperative chemotherapy. Prolongation of survival in these patients indicates that possible benefit of the treatment regimens administered may be expected. Prospective randomized study is recommended to check the obtained results.
