Popis: ObjectivesWe conducted a phase II study to investigate the efficacy and toxicities of irinotecan plus oral S-1 in patients with advanced or recurrent uterine cervical cancer.MethodsPatients with advanced or recurrent cervical cancer previously treated with platinum based chemotherapy were enrolled. Irinotecan (150 mg/m2) was administered intravenously over the course of 90 min on day 1, and S-1 (80 mg/m2) was given orally in two divided doses from days 1 to 14 of a 21 day cycle. The primary endpoint of this phase II study was response rate. Secondary endpoints included safety, progression free survival, and overall survival.ResultsA total of 19 patients were enrolled and treated. The response rate was 29.4%. Grade 3–4 hematologic toxicities were observed in three patients (15.7%). The only grade 3–4 non-hematologic toxicity observed was grade 3 diarrhea. The median progression free survival and overall survival were 3 months and 9 months, respectively.ConclusionS-1 plus irinotecan in a 3 weekly setting is safe and active in women with advanced or recurrent cervical cancer previously treated with platinum based chemotherapy. Future corroborative clinical studies are warranted.
