Combination of low-dose docetaxel and standard-dose S-1 for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer: efficacy, toxicity, and potential predictive factor

Abstract: This combination of standard dose of S-1 and low dose of docetaxel is effective and well tolerated in patients with advanced or recurrent gastric cancer. Peritoneal metastasis is treated more effectively by this regimen than other forms of metastases. Baseline DPD expression level in the serum is associated with toxicity, but not tumor response.

“…What is more, the cutoff levels were determined by standard statistic analysis, not the simple median or mean. The plasmic expression of DPD in this study was consistent with previously reported with ELISA; however, no report for plasmic OPRT, TP, or TS was available [7]. The frequencies of CYP2A6 alleles in this population were compatible with other Asian population [3133].…”

“…Besides, high OPRT/DPD, OPRT/TP, OPRT/TS, OPRT/DPD + TP + TS, OPRT/DPD + TS, OPRT/TP + TS, and OPRT/DPD + TP were all associated with grade 3–4 AEs, among which, high OPRT/DPD exhibited the highest accuracy. Cui et al [7] reported lower baseline plasmic DPD correlated with higher grade of toxicities in AGC patients with S-1 plus docetaxel by ELISA. Further studies were warranted to decide whether OPRT or OPRT/DPD better predicts grade 3–4 AEs.…”

“…Studies showed that docetaxel in combination with S-1 led to significantly improved outcomes with tolerable toxicities. The ORRs ranged from 42.6 to 57.8%, and median OS ranged from 13.0 to 16.2 months [20,21]. …”

“…Interindividual variation in pharmacogenetics of the S-1 metabolic pathway can affect the extent of S-1 metabolism and impact the efficacy and toxicity of S-1-based chemotherapy. Published studies all used "candidate" pharmacogenetic factors to predict the outcomes of AGC patients with S-1 or S-1-based chemotherapy, none of which used S-1 pharmacogenetic pathway approach, which means none integrated CYP2A6 polymorphism, 5-FU metabolic enzymes, and pharmacokinetics at the same time [6][7][8]. However, those factors do not act in isolation.…”
